Rio 2016 hero Bryony Page announced as latest big name to attend Sheffield Celebration of Sport gala dinner.

Bryony, who recently made history by becoming the first British trampolinist to win an Olympic medal, will be a special guest at the red carpet event at the English Institute of Sport (EIS Sheffield) on Wednesday, October 5.

The Sheffield-based Olympic athlete, who trains at Hillsborough Leisure Centre, finished 0.425 points behind Canada's Rosannagh MacLennan to take second place in Rio.

Bryony, aged 25, won three successive British Championship titles between 2013 and 2015 and finished fifth in the individual event at the 2015 World Championships. She recently graduated with a first-class honours degree in biology from the University of Sheffield.

More than 1,000 guests are expected at the Olympic Legacy Park’s glittering Celebration of Sport event, which has been organised to honour the city’s past, present and future sporting success.

Bryony will be joined by sporting stars such as IBF welterweight champion, Kell Brook and professional mountain biker, Steve Peat.

She said: “Sheffield’s Celebration of Sport is a brilliant idea and I’m looking forward to being back in Sheffield and catching up with some of the TeamGB squad. Sheffield has produced so many amazing sporting champions and I’m honoured to be included in the celebrations.”

Sheffield’s Celebration of Sport is being staged in the centre of the Indoor Athletics Arena at EIS Sheffield – the same track where Olympians such as Jessica Ennis-Hill trained for Rio. It will include a display by young members of Bryony’s club, the Sheffield Trampoline Academy, which trains out of Hillsborough Leisure Centre.

Richard Caborn, project lead for the Olympic Legacy Park, said: “We’re really excited about seeing Bryony at Sheffield’s Celebration of Sport. She performed extraordinarily well in Rio and it will be fantastic to welcome Bryony back to Sheffield and celebrate her incredible achievement.”
