Adele Nicoll is ready to make history and inspire a new generation! 🚀 This talented athlete from Welshpool is set to become the first British Olympian to compete in the monobob at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Cortina. Adele, who’s a powerhouse on the field as the British shot put champion, hopes her groundbreaking journey in bobsleigh will encourage girls across Wales and beyond to chase their dreams, no matter where they come from. 🌟


For Adele, being a role model is personal. Growing up in mid-Wales, she didn’t have many visible role models herself. She believes passionately in showing young athletes that with hard work and opening the right doors, anything is possible. 🌈

Adele’s double act doesn’t stop at monobob. She’ll also team up with Ashleigh Nelson in the two-woman bobsleigh event. The dynamic duo shares a unique bond, having both transitioned from athletics to the ice, proving once again that diverse talents can lead to incredible achievements. 🥇
Despite her busy schedule, Adele still harbours dreams of representing Wales at the upcoming Commonwealth Games and is proud to demonstrate the strength and versatility of field athletes. Her journey from shot put to bobsleigh showcases the speed, strength, and skill needed in both arenas. 💪
Keeping her grounded is her supportive family. While her dad is content with a simple thumbs-up emoji to celebrate outstanding achievements, Adele knows they’re always her biggest cheerleaders. It’s this balance that keeps her hungry for more, never settling for average. 🌟
