GB sprint star Hunt visits England training camp

Olympic-level sprinter Amy Hunt made an appearance at England’s training facility this week, engaging with the team during a practice session and lunch ahead of their Nations Championship clash with Australia. The 24-year-old, who claimed four gold medals at last year’s European Championships in Birmingham, joined a growing list of high-profile athletes offering insights to Steve Borthwick’s squad, reinforcing the culture of learning from elite performers across sports.

Players like Ben Earl noted Hunt’s enthusiasm and academic background—a Cambridge degree—while defence coach Richard Wigglesworth highlighted the motivational impact of bringing in successful competitors. Her visit follows similar stops by tennis star Emma Raducanu and football manager Thomas Tuchel, underlining the team’s focus on fostering connections with athletes who embody excellence in their fields.
