BOA names Baku team

23/04/2015

With 51 days to go, the British Olympic Association has announced that Team GB will compete with 153 athletes in 19 disciplines from 13 sports in the Azerbaijani capital city, Baku, from June 12-28.

Wrestling is the most popular combat sport in Azerbaijan and will be viewed as one of the highlights of the Games by the Baku locals.

Team GB’s two wrestling athletes are:-

Men’s Freestyle 125kg Chinu @chinuwrestler
Women’s Freestyle 48kg Yana Rattigan @yana2012

 

Said Yana, “It’s a huge honour to be selected to represent Team GB at the Baku 2015 European Games. Getting another chance to compete in a multi-sport event is a great opportunity and valuable experience. I have good memories of competing in Baku after winning silver at the 2010 European Championships so I’m looking forward to returning.”

Congratulations to Chinu and Yana on their selection for Team GB.  They will be accompanied by coach Anatolii Kharytoniuk.
