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.
