This morning Team Great Britain released the roster for the inaugural 2015 European Games. The Games officially start on Friday, June 12th, 2015 in Baku, Azerbaijani . This event will be the first of it’s kind and is modeled to look like the Olympic Games with 6,000 athletes from 50 European nations compete in the 253 medal events. For many athletes, this will be their first taste of a major multi-sport Games and a chance to wear the Olympic Rings. Every European National Olympic Committee will be represented.
With 24 selected athletes, swimming makes up the largest of Team GB’s squads heading out to Baku 2015. All athletes are aged between 14 and 18 with many representing Team GB for the first time at a multi-sport event.
