Sarah, who is the current First Vice President of the International Triathlon Union, has served in a number of key positions in British sport over the last fifteen years and brings a wealth of experience and performance knowledge to this post.

 

British Triathlon enjoyed a very successful period of growth and Olympic success during Sarah’s time at the helm and we are delighted that the wider world of British Sport will benefit from her input.

 

On the announcement of her appointment, Sarah said: “Leading an aspirational National Governing Body up to, and through, a home Olympics, has been a great experience, allowing me to learn a great deal about how to support the teams behind the athletes and the athletes themselves to deliver success when it matters most, winning Olympic medals.  

 

“UK Sport has an extremely important role to play in this next ‘Rio’ cycle, and with a home Commonwealth Games to gauge improvement along the way, I look forward to this exciting opportunity to make a contribution across all of UK Sport’s strategic areas.”
