Sophie Capewell will be looking forward to experiencing her first Commonwealth Games at Birmingham 2022. 

The 23-year-old has already tasted success on the international stage, taking bronze in the women’s team sprint at the 2021 Track Cycling World Championships. 

The Lichfield native claimed numerous national titles in sprint events at youth and junior level and stepped up to the British Cycling Team Senior Academy in 2016. 

Capewell got a flavour of the home support that will await her in the summer at the UCI Track Champions league meet in London last December. 

She showed her appreciation for the support, tweeting ‘absolutely loved it’ at the event where she finished in 15th in the women’s sprint.
