Olympic champion boxer Nicola Adams has been named among a 163-strong Great Britain team for the European Games in Baku, Azerbaijan.
The Commonwealth gold medallist will compete in the event in two months' time, while Olympic taekwondo champion Jade Jones will also travel to Baku. They will be joined by judo star Gemma Gibbons and three-time world triathlon champion Helen Jenkins.
The Games, which get underway on June 12 and close 16 days later, will include 13 sports and 19 disciplines, 10 of which will be part of the qualification process for the Rio Olympics next year.
"It's a great opportunity," said Team GB's chef de mission Mark England. "Many will test themselves against Europe's best, gain crucial multi-sport Games experience or build on their road to Rio 2016."
Great Britain can earn Rio 2016 qualification in archery, beach volleyball, boxing, judo, shooting, swimming, table tennis, taekwondo, triathlon and wrestling.
