Paralympic Panels

March 2010

The Paralympic Council of Ireland recently announced their senior panels for 2010.

Once again we are glad to be able to report that Irish Blind Sport athletes are well represented throughout the panels. Congratulations to the following who are currently included on the PCI panels.

Athletics

Jason Smyth
Ailish Dunne

Cycling

Catherine Walsh
Michael Delaney

Swimming

Stephen Campbell

Rowing

Shane Ryan
Sarah Caffrey

The panels are open ended and athletes who attain the required standards can be added as necessary throughout the year. Indeed a number of visually impaired athletes remain prominently positioned within the development squads and are challenging for inclusion onto the senior panels in the near future.

We wish all our athletes good performances throughout the 2010 season and success in achieving the minimum qualification standards where these are already published for future major events.
