LONDON, September 28. UNDER the direction of Dave Champion, Great Britain will send a 47-strong squad to the European Short Course Championships, scheduled for December in Trieste, Italy. Many of the team members will be making their first foray into international competition. It will be Champion\u2019s fourth stint as the coach of the short-course unit.<\/p>\n
"It's a large squad featuring the present as well as the future of the sport in Britain," said Champion. "It's a mixture of the big guns aiming to deliver but there are also younger athletes who will be looking to go to their first senior international and impress.<\/p>\n
"It's a good environment for the youngsters to get their first taste of a major international. It's not as bright a spotlight as that of the Olympics but it's a spotlight nonetheless and we've had some great performances at the Europeans from the younger talent over the past few years."<\/p>\n
The team is the same squad that will represent Great Britain at next year\u2019s Commonwealth Games. <\/p>\n
