Tim won his first national title in 1997 in the U17 200m indoors, while still only 14 and that summer progressed to the top of the world rankings for his age.

In 2000 he won a bronze medal in the World Junior Championships over 200m with a time of 20.76 and was awarded gold in the 4x100m relay.

In 2001 he won double gold at the European Junior Championships in the 400m and in the 4x100m relay, adding silver at 4x400m. He took a bronze medal with the British 4x400m team at the 2003 World Indoor Championships before taking the silver medal in the 400m in 45.86 at the European Under-23 Championships that summer.

He had keyhole surgery to remove a tendon in his knee in December 2003 and was helped by having Roger Black as a mentor. This helped him establish himself as Britain's top 400m runner in 2004, winning the European Cup and AAA and setting a personal best of 45.04 at the London Grand Prix, before qualifying for the semi final at the Athens Olympics. 

Having recovered from injury in April 2005, he then competed in the World Championships and later concluded his season with an impressive 45.56.

What’s next for Tim? … The Olympic Games, Beijing 2008

Ryan reined as British Champion from the age of 14 until the age of 18. In 2000, he was crowned Commonwealth Junior Champion on the parallel bars and the floor as well as claiming the bronze on the vault and finally adding a team silver to his collection.

Ryan has competed in three World Championships, two European Junior Championships and one European Senior Championships, being placed a creditable 5th place in the individual ranks.

In 2006, he represented England in the Melbourne Commonwealth Games and was awarded a team bronze.

Darren Campbell is unquestionably one of the most successful and well known male sprinters. During 1991 and 1992 he became the most successful British athlete at junior level, winning four gold and two silver medals at International Championships.

Darren made his debut on the senior circuit at the age of 18, as a member of the 4 x 100m squad for the Stuttgart World Championships in 1993.

In 1995, he made his breakthrough on the World circuit, running a personal best time of 10.17 in Bratislava at the end of May ’96.

Darren’s career went from strength to strength and he consistently picked up medals in the lead up to his first Olympic success in the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, where he won silver in the 200m. Four years later, Darren returned to the Olympics, this time claiming gold as part of the 4x100m relay team. 

Darren was awarded an MBE in 2005 for his services to the sport. He carried on performing as one of Britain’s top sprinters, again winning Gold in 2006, this time as part of the men’s 4x100m relay team at the European Championships. He announced his retirement shortly after and now remains an ambassador of the sport through a number of roles, including his involvement in Street Athletics and the Youth Sport Trust and of course Team Superschools.
