ABOUT

Christian Malcolm

Christian began his sporting career at the age of 8 as a footballer, initially playing for a local team before going on to play for top premiership teams QPR, Nottingham Forest and South Wales Schools by the age of 15. His athletics career began at the age of 11, and at 17 years of age he achieved his first British vest. He went on to represent Great Britain and became one of the World’s Greatest Sprinters for the next 18 years. Having spent most of his life as an athlete, Christian has gained a huge amount of knowledge about the sport and what makes you a great athlete.

The Christian Malcolm Sports Academy is aimed at giving young people the opportunity to maximize their potential in sport and is a way of giving something back to local communities. His experience as a professional athlete, the technical lead for Team GB 4x100m relays and Disability Sport Wales has driven Christian to share his expertise through the Christian Malcolm Sports Academy.
