Loughborough University sport scholar Molly Palmer has enjoyed such a stellar season that she has been scooped up by UCLA Track and Field ahead of the start of the 2026/27 college season.

2026 has proved a transformative year for the long jumper, as a personal best jump of 6.68m in February earned her selection for the World Athletics Indoor Championship in Torun, Poland. 

She finished second to Lucy Hadaway at the 2026 UK Athletics Championships in Birmingham and the pair will join up with Jazmin Sawyers for a Team England triple threat in the long jump at Glasgow 2026.
