E196 - Aquatics GB Names Young European Champs Squad

With the Aquatics GB Olympic Team skipping the 2024 European Championships, a brilliant opportunity has arisen for a host of under-21 British Swimmers.

Due to the clash between European Champs (10th-23rd June) and Sette Colli (21-23 June 2024) Aquatics GB won't be sending any Olympians to Belgrade later this summer, but this does mean valuable major meet experience can be gained for the 10 pool swimmers selected.

Fleur Lewis, Holly McGill, Lucy Grieve, Calvin Fry, Alex Painter, Ed Mildred, Josh Gammon, Jack Skerry, Matt Ward and Leah Schlosshan will all be representing British Swimming.

On this week's Propulsion Swimming Podcast, we talk through their chances at the meet and why we are excited after their British Champs 2024 performances.

We also discuss the 3 Open Water Marathon Swimmers who ARE going to the Olympics and the European Championships and how their preparations are shaping up before Paris.
