British Paralympic team selection

We are pleased to share the athletes who have been selected to represent ParalympicsGB at the Paralympic Games later this summer.

This week ParalympicsGB named a further 23 athletes who will be joining those already selected last month. They will be joining the English quartet of Hannah Cockroft (Leeds City, Paul Moseley), Jonathan Broom-Edwards (Newham & Essex Beagles, Beth Partridge), Kare Adenegan (Coventry, Job King) and Dan Pembroke (Windsor, Slough, Eton & Hounslow, John Trower).

After such great success at the World Championships in Kobe, Japan, we can't wait to show our support for all of the athletes and their coaches who have been selected.

Speaking on the selection, England Athletics' Para Athletics Manager, Matt Kendrick, said:

"Congratulations to all of the para athletes selected for the 2024 Paralympic Games. It is a fantastic team with great strength and I wish the athletes and the staff all the best at the Games. I am hopeful and confident that the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games will be a catalyst for further development of para athletics in England."
