Hull → Beijing → Tokyo

Swimmer Holly Williams was awarded a TAP scholarship and went on to qualify for the Great Britain Olympic Games Trials for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games and the England Commonwealth Games Trials.

Holly, who studied for a BSc Applied Sport Science for Performance and MSc Clinical Exercise Physiology, qualified for three events at the Olympic trials: the 50m, 100m and 200m butterfly. 
“Qualifying for the Olympic trials has been the highlight of my career so far. 
The rehabilitation has massively helped me with injuries. The strength and conditioning has made a lot of difference to my training, my sprinting ability and my overall strength and fitness. 
The TAP staff are always on hand if I have any problems or need to talk to them regarding my programme.”
