Games joy for Oldham duo

SWIMMING:

OLDHAM pair Jess Lloyd and Jess Fullalove have earned call-ups to Team England’s Commonwealth Games squad.

Diggle-based Lloyd (19) and Royton’s Fullalove (17), who both swim for the City of Manchester Aquatics club, will join a 39-strong team.

Freestyle specialist Lloyd was part of the Great Britain team that competed at the London Olympics in 2012, but for backstroke ace Fullalove, Glasgow 2014 will be her dream first appearances at a senior Games showpiece.

She will be the youngest member of the whole team that will compete in Scotland from July 23.
