On 17 September 2016 at the 2016 Summer Paralympics Kamlish broke the World Record in the heats for T44 100m.

A year later Kamlish was back in the Great Britain team, this time travelling to Lyon to compete in the 2013 Lyon. She came fourth in the 100 metres sprint but won her first major international medal when she finished third in the 200 metres. Kamlish has also represented her country at the 2014 IPC Athletics European Championships in Swansea and the 2015 World Championships in Doha.

In 2011 Kamlish attended a 'Playground to Podium' event at the University of Bath, a scheme intended to find talented potential athletes. Despite having played wheelchair basketball at junior level, she preferred the solo aspect and self-reliance that comes with athletics. Kamlish made her senior international debut at the 2012 Paralympic World Cup in Manchester and that year was selected for the Great Britain team at the London Paralympics. At the London Games she was selected for two events, the 100 metres and 200 metres T44 sprints. Kamlish qualified through the heats in both events but did not achieve a podium finish in either, though she did achieve a personal best in the 200m.

Sophie Kamlish (born 20 August 1996) is a British Paralympic athlete who competes in sprint events in T44 events. She represented Great Britain at the 2012 Summer Paralympics and 2016 Summer Paralympics.

Kamlish was born in Camden, London in 1996. She was born with a right foot that was severely turned in, for which a splint was fitted to straighten it. Despite this her right leg was significantly shorter than her left and when Kamlish was nine her doctors suggested the fitting of a gradual extension frame to lengthen her leg. Kamlish was already in significant pain and there was no guarantee that the frame would work so she and her family opted for a below the knee amputation. In a 2012 interview, Kamlish stated that it was a good decision.
