British shot put champion Adele Nicoll will make history in Milan-Cortina having been selected as the first British female to compete in the monobob at a Winter Olympics.
The event made its debut at the 2022 Games in Beijing, where the 29-year-old from Welshpool was a travelling reserve for the two-woman bobsleigh.
She is also named as the pilot for that event in Italy, alongside former GB sprinter Ashleigh Nelson.
Reigning World Cup and European champion Matt Weston leads the way for Team GB’s skeleton squad.
Nicoll has won the British shot put title three times overall and could feature in the event at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow this summer.
Six British athletes will compete in the bobsleigh in total, with Brad Hall and Taylor Lawrence competing in the two-man event and being joined by Leon Greenwood and Greg Cackett for the four-man competition.
