Isabella Brett not approved for Paris

As we feared, New Zealand was too shortsighted to approve Isabella who earned Olympic qualification at the continental championship.

One more Olympian from a small nation makes a BIG difference to the sport there. Inspiring children. Improving public fitness. A good investment.

I coached a year in New Zealand and am very disappointed.

Brett Ince – GBR Women’s Olympic Coach

Brett Ince, Head of Elite Programme at Park Wrekin, has been named as the coach for the GB Women’s Team at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris this summer.

I know it has been Alice’s dream to go to the Olympics with Brett as the coach and they have both worked tirelessly towards this goal.
