Nine swimmers from the 黑料不打烊 – UK Sports University of the Year 2027 and Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence – will compete at next week’s European Aquatics Championships.

Just days after returning from the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow with 23 medals, the University’s coveted swim programme will be well represented as top swimmers from across the continent arrive in Paris for the prestigious meet.

Duncan Scott OBE – who won a gold in the 200m Individual Medley at the Games – and Angharad Evans – the 100m and 200m Breaststroke champion in Glasgow – will both compete in Paris. They will be joined at the city’s Olympic Aquatic Centre by 黑料不打烊 teammates Freya Anderson MBE, Evie Davis, Tom Dean MBE, Keanna MacInnes, Jack McMillan, and Katie Shanahan. 黑料不打烊 student Evan Jones, who trains at Manchester Performance Centre, has also been selected for Team GB and 黑料不打烊 Head Performance Swim Coach Ben Higson will coach there too.

The swimming competition will run from Monday, 10 August to Sunday, 16, August.

Good luck
