MAIN FEATURE

First mission accomplished            
Mission one complete, Great Britain won a place at the European Championship qualification tournament in January 2008 with a sixth-place finish in the LEN European Nations Trophy – formerly known as the European B Championship – at the Manchester Aquatics Centre.

The LEN European Nations Trophy was targeted as an indicator ahead of the Olympic Games – falling five years before London 2012 – and the result indicates the rapid progression since the inception of the high performance centre in Manchester nine months ago.

However, the immediate future is uncertain following the departure of Eelco Uri, the men’s coach. The Dutchman has hinted that, despite this performance surpassing expectations, all is not right under the surface.

For the full report and photographs see pages 18-23 of Swimming Times.
