Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix
Many within the diving community have had their eyes on Andrea Spendolini-Sirieix for some time.
Aged just 17, she currently balances her diving training alongside her A-Level studies. In 2020, after a string of impressive performances, she followed in Tom Daley’s footsteps to win the BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year Award.
Andrea made her Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020 as the youngest member of the Team GB diving squad and took mixed synchro and individual bronze at her maiden European Championships the same year. But she really flourished at this year’s Commonwealth games, becoming one of the breakthrough stars of the competition.
