The kit of the GB athletes competing at this summer’s Olympic and Paralympic Games in Paris has been revealed. The kit uses the red, white and blue of the Union Jack and manufacturer Adidas says the collection "celebrates the unique aspects of Great Britain".
The 2024 Olympics and Paralympics take place in Paris this summer. And with less than 100 days until the Games begin, athletes are getting prepared.
Four-time Olympic diving medallist Tom Daley who is hoping to make his fifth Olympics was featured in the kit launch. He said: "The pride and passion I feel when representing my country on the biggest sporting stage is second to none, so to unveil a kit that encompasses what this moment means is incredibly special. I cannot wait to proudly wear it in Paris this summer, alongside my fellow team-mates."
British gymnast Max Whitlock was another athlete to feature. Max has won major international medals, including three Olympics, and is Britain's most successful gymnast. He recently revealed that he will retire after Paris 2024.
Paralympics GB athlete, Livvy Breen who competes in the athletics said: “I love the new kit, especially the pops of colour and what they represent – it feels really fresh. I think all the athletes wearing it this summer will feel a real sense of passion as they compete in such a pinnacle sporting event.”
Malaysia-born and UK-raised B-boy Sunni Brummitt started breaking aged 10. The Paris Olympics will be the first of the Olympic Games to feature break dancing as a sport in the competition.
With the kit ready and the countdown on, the Games are getting closer. The athletes will be putting in final preparations, and fans are getting ready to watch. Are you excited?
