Paralympic champion William Ellard will look to add the Commonwealth title to his name when he represents Team England for the first time in 2026.
Ellard stormed to S14 200m freestyle gold at Paris 2024, where he set a new world record, and followed that up with another victory in the mixed 4x100m relay. He also added a silver medal in the S14 100m butterfly.
The 20-year-old now has his sights set on climbing the Commonwealth podium, to further furnish his already impressive medal collection, which includes a S14 200m freestyle world title.
He is the current S14 200m freestyle world record holder, after clocking 50.41s at the 2026 British Championships.
The Beccles-born swimmer was appointed an MBE in 2025 for his services to swimming.
