York City Baths Club’s James Wilby has today been named, amongst some of the greatest names in our sport, as a member of Team England and will compete at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

James had been a member of York City Baths Club for several years, learning to swim with us before continuing on to have a successful competitive career. Wilby was crowned National Champion in the 200m Breaststroke at the 2010 National Championships. He left us in 2013 to study and train at Loughborough University.

The club would like to congratulate James on this fine achievement and look forward to welcoming him back for the occasional training session!
