Kathryn Greenslade of the University of Edinburgh has been selected for the LEN European Short Course Championships in Copenhagen, Denmark next month.

Greenslade will compete in the freestyle and backstroke events having impressed at the BUCS Short Course meet earlier this month.

She will replace Max Litchfield (City of Sheffield) who will be focusing on improving his fitness ahead of the Commonwealth Games in April.

The team will be led by World Champions Duncan Scott, Ben Proud, and Adam Peaty supported by a group of younger athletes looking to take their place within the senior set up.

Tim Jones, team leader and head coach, said: “Kathryn has put in some strong performances in recent competitions so this is her chance to gain big event experience and develop arena skills.”
