Lloyd earns spot in England team

SWIMMING: JESSICA Lloyd has been chosen to represent England Schools in the home international tournament in March.

The WISE competition (Wales, Ireland, Scotland and England) runs from March 25 to 27 in Dublin.

Her selection comes hot on the heels of an impressive showing for the national side’s talent group against Canada, in which she finished second in 50 metre, 100m and 200m freestyle.

The 15-year-old Saddleworth School pupil, who swims for City of Manchester, is currently in Dubai at the World Class Development squad’s training camp.
