A 28-strong British team has been announced for the European Aquatics Junior Swimming Championships which take place this July in Samorin, Slovakia.

Europe’s most talented junior swimmers will gather in Samorin this summer as Slovakia hosts its first European-level swimming competitions.

The European Aquatics Junior Swimming Championships (for athletes born between 2007-2011) will take place at the x-bionic sphere from 1st-6th July, following the staging of the second European Aquatics U23 Swimming Championships at the same venue a week earlier.

Among the standout names selected to the British team based on performances at April’s Aquatics GB Swimming Championships is Amelie Blocksidge – who has both her 800m and 1500m Freestyle European junior titles from Vilnius 2024 to defend having already impressively claimed her latest senior British titles in both events this year at just 16 years old.

A host of further 2025 medallists from London are included in the roster for Samorin, with Jack Brown, Jasmine Carter, Blythe Kinsman, Filip Nowacki, Amalie Smith and Hollie Wilson all aiming build upon the performances that saw them secure a place on a British podium last month as they now prepare to go head-to-head with the best junior swimmers on the continent.

Carter, Kinsman and Nowacki additionally each claimed an individual European junior medal in Lithuania last July, and are joined again by Theodora Taylor, Skye Carter and Phoebe Cooper who achieved the same feat as Great Britain finished seventh on the medal table in 2024 – with three of the GB team’s 13 medal haul coming from relay events.

Nowacki is also coming off setting a new British Age Record for 17-year-old boys in the 200 breast at the AP Race International meet in a time of 2:10.53, lowering his month-old best time of 2:11.09.

Looking ahead to what is always a hugely valuable and entertaining meet, Euan Dale (Performance Pathway Lead – Swimming) commented:

“This is a fantastic opportunity for the next generation to test themselves on the international stage. The focus will be on growth, development, and embracing the experience as a team.

“We’re especially excited about the relays – nothing captures the spirit of Great Britain more than athletes coming together with a team-first mentality to take on the best that Europe has to offer.”

Details of live streaming and results links still to be announced, with all latest event details published on the European Aquatics website.

The Maryland Volleyball program announced its 2025 Big Ten schedule as released by the conference on Wednesday.

“The release of the Big Ten volleyball schedule is always an exciting moment, but this year feels especially significant,” said Head Coach Adam Hughes. “With the defending national champion in Penn State and eight NCAA Tournament teams from last year, the depth of this conference is as strong as ever.”

“We’re thrilled for our first-ever trips to UCLA and USC, expanding our reach in this new era of Big Ten volleyball,” said Hughes. “With the possibility that this could be the final season of the 20-match conference slate, every match carries a little extra weight.”

TAMPA, Fla. (May 28, 2025)  University of South Florida student-athletes continue to raise the bar in the classroom, delivering another record-breaking academic performance during the spring 2025 semester.

USF Athletics posted a department-wide term GPA of 3.45, marking the 21st consecutive semester that Bulls student-athletes have earned a 3.00 or higher.

Additionally, the department’s cumulative GPA climbed to 3.36 following the spring term — the highest mark ever recorded in USF Athletics history. The cumulative GPA measures the average among active student-athletes. All varsity programs earned a 3.00 cumulative GPA or higher through the spring 2025 semester.

“We continue to be tremendously proud of the dedication our student-athletes show in the classroom,” said USF Vice President for Athletics Michael Kelly. “Achieving the highest cumulative GPA on record while competing at a championship level speaks volumes about the culture of excellence our coaches, academic staff, and student-athletes have built and sustained.”

Three teams also recorded their best-ever semester GPAs: baseball (3.40), football (3.25), and women’s soccer (3.64) each posted their highest-ever term GPA this spring. Meanwhile, men’s basketball, football, and beach volleyball each reached their highest-ever cumulative GPA following the semester — further proof of the department-wide momentum in the classroom.

Men’s teams achieved a 3.31 semester GPA, while women’s teams excelled with a 3.61. Men’s tennis recorded the highest men’s GPA at 3.53, while beach volleyball led all women’s programs with a 3.81 GPA during the spring semester.

More than 84% of student-athletes recorded a 3.00 GPA or better this spring, and 361 were named to the athletic department’s honor roll.

Fifty-three student-athletes earned degrees this spring, including 51 bachelor’s degrees, one post-bachelor’s certificate, and one master’s degree.

Earlier this month, USF Athletics also set a record with six programs — men’s cross country, men’s golf, men’s tennis, women’s basketball, women’s golf, and women’s tennis — earning perfect multiyear Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores. The APR is a real-time measure of eligibility, retention, and graduation for student-athletes.

Bangalore/New Delhi, May 27, 2025: Boldfit, one of India’s fastest-growing fitness and sports gear brands, has announced the onboarding of Team India pacer Arshdeep Singh as an official brand athlete. More than a celebrity endorsement, this collaboration deepens Boldfit’s unique positioning as a fitness brand built by athletes, for athletes.

Arshdeep joins the Boldfit squad alongside KL Rahul, brand’s very first investor and a driving force behind its athlete-first DNA. 

Known for his fearless pace and grounded persona, Arshdeep brings raw energy and authenticity to Boldfit’s growing athlete-led movement.

The announcement dropped via a cheeky, highly viral social media carousel featuring his chat with KL Rahul discussing joining the brand and Arshdeep’s snap avatar wearing the Boldfit merch.

A very fresh, Gen Z-style launch that speaks directly to the fitness-first youth of India and saw a lot of love from his followers.

Arshdeep Singh, speaking about the partnership, said: “I have always believed in doing things with full power, on and off the field.

Boldfit gets that vibe. It’s not just good looking gear, it’s made for how athletes actually train, recover and live. Really excited to build this.”

Pallav Bihani, Founder of Boldfit, shared his vision, “We started Boldfit to create a brand rooted in real athletic journeys. KL Rahul gave us that foundation.

With Arshdeep coming on board, we’re doubling down on our mission to make Boldfit an athlete-first, performance-led brand. We are excited to co-create products with Arshdeep, tailored for the Indian fitness consumer.”

KL Rahul, cricketer and also an investor in Boldfit, added “Boldfit has always been about more than merch or gear. It’s about creating something from within the sports ecosystem. Seeing Arshdeep come on board is a proud moment — the movement is only getting bolder.”

This isn’t just a brand partnership, it’s about building something for new India. Boldfit is rewriting the playbook for fitness brands in India, making athletes the architects of what fitness culture can truly be.

LAS CRUCES, N.M. – With the 2025 season just a few months away, NM State Volleyball made a new addition to its coaching staff. Head Coach Mike Jordan announced Chelsea Rose will be joining the bench alongside him ahead of the fall campaign. Rose couples Lia Mosher as former Aggies on the staff, with the two both gracing the Pan American Center floor in the 2010s.
 
Chelsea Rose, on returning to the Aggie bench as an assistant coach: “I’m incredibly excited to return to New Mexico State as an assistant. This university holds a special place in my heart, and coming back feels like a homecoming. The opportunity to work alongside Coach Jordan and contribute to the growth of our student-athletes is both a privilege and a responsibility I take seriously. I look forward to building on the strong traditions here and helping create an environment where our players can thrive both on and off the court.”
 
Chelsea Rose is a native of Bakersfield, Calif., attending Liberty High School and graduating in 2008. After two seasons at Bakersfield College that included a 20-7 campaign and a conference championship, she came to the City of Crosses to play under Jordan’s tutelage. In 2010, the club finished 18-13 overall, but impressed with a 12-4 mark in WAC play after wins in nine of its first 10 conference matches.
 
The setter graduated from NM State shortly after with a degree in psychology. In 2017, she returned as a volunteer assistant for Lia Mosher‘s first season with the Crimson & White. The following year, Rose spent the fall as an assistant coach at Lamar. The first-year Cardinal helped nearly double the program’s win total from 2017, guiding the club to a 7-5 home record. 
 
In 2019, Rose returned to her alma mater, reuniting with Jordan as the director of player development. The California native spent three seasons in the role, overseeing academics, travel arrangements, personal development plans and recruiting for the program. In her time back with NM State, the Aggies claimed three regular-season WAC titles and made a trip to the 2019 NCAA Tournament after taking the conference tournament crown. All three campaigns, Rose assisted Mosher from the bench that the two will now share as assistant coaches.
 
Since her last season with the Aggies, Rose has been the head coach for Texas Performance Volleyball Club. She led the group to multiple national rankings and four Elite Eight finishes at USA Volleyball National Qualifiers, ensuring several Division I scholarships for her athletes across the nation.
 
Head Coach Mike Jordan, on the addition of Chelsea Rose to the coaching staff: “Chelsea is obviously in a different role than before, and I’m very happy to have her back. She is going to have a lot more responsibility now, but I know that she is more than capable. I’m excited to have her back in Las Cruces.”
