About Us and Our Mission
Kate Staples, known to millions as ‘Zodiac’ from the iconic TV show Gladiators, and Daley Thompson CBE, a double Olympic Champion and former World record holder, have come together to create the Daley Thompson Academies. Both legends in their own right, Kate and Daley share a passion for empowering the next generation of athletes.
Kate, a pioneering GB athlete and record-breaking pole vaulter, turned to coaching after a career-ending injury. Her vision was to create better opportunities for ex-athletes to share their expertise and inspire young talent. Daley, with his unparalleled experience and success in athletics, is equally dedicated to fostering young athletes’ potential.
Our mission is to nurture talent, celebrate athleticism, and provide opportunities for children to discover their potential and lead active, healthy lives.
Under the guidance of Kate and Daley, we are committed to creating a lasting legacy, shaping future champions, and empowering youth to reach their full potential.
