Dozens of University of Bath-based swimmers in action at British Swimming Championships 2023 in Sheffield

Among the British Swimming Performance Centre Bath contingent looking to secure qualification for this summer’s World Aquatics Championships in Japan are Olympic Champions Tom Dean, James Guy and Freya Anderson, and Commonwealth Games gold-medallist Brodie Williams.
The University’s student swimming club, coached by Mark Skimming and Andrei Vorontsov, will also be well represented in Sheffield with the busiest swimmers – Jemima Hall, Lewis Maxwell and Niamh Ward – entered into six categories each during the week.
