Simmonds claims place in IPC Worlds squad

Ellie Simmonds has been included in an 18-strong Great Britain squad for the IPC World Championships in July.

It will be a fourth outing for the 20-year-old at the event, while in contrast, Bethany Firth will be making her international debut in Glasgow.

However, there was no such positive news for Stephanie Millward, Matt Walker and Amy Marren, all of whom have missed out on a place in the selection.
