Today is my last day with British Para Swimming. I’ve had a wonderful 8 years. I count myself one of the luckiest people in the world. To have a shot at your dream job and succeed fills me with immense pride! Thanks to all that have helped me along the way!

Great effort!

The @TeamEngland trio of @Jcatchpole123, @ReeceyDunn and @thomasbhamer finish just outside the podium in the Men's 200m Freestyle S14 final!

They finished in fourth, fifth and sixth respectively 👏

@NOTSwimVortex So why was it different in 2014 & 2018?
With 7 athletes in Glasgow 2014 and
8 athletes in Gold Coast 2018 and they managed to deliver heats!

[Tom Hamer @thomasbhamer]

All Para swim relays cancelled. Just been told individual swim heats cancelled. Gutted. Are we not TV worthy???

[Tully Kearney OBE PLY @TullyKearney]

Another example of the inequality of the ‘inclusive’ CWG! This is not ok!!

[Steve Redfern @AMRN77]

This is crap! They call this an inclusive #CommonwealthGames2022 but it quite clearly isn’t!!

[Tom Hamer @thomasbhamer]

@SRW99 @swimdad74 Doesn’t make sense… because in 2014 CWG there was only 7 para athletes and in 2018 CWG there was 8 athletes so why can’t our own nation host heats?? When they can!!

Hey Adam #isitok that the CWG
calls itself "inclusive' when only
5 out of 10 physical impairment
para swimming classes are EVER
included (least impaired) If you can't see us
how can you be inspired to be
us? @adamhillscomedy
