The BOA and Team GB have just confirmed that Amy Connell will represent Great Britain at the European Games in Minsk, Belarus this June. This is the European selection qualifier for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
There are only two people selected for Karate from Great Britain, with Amy the only Scot, the other being an English male competitor. Of Europe's top eight fighters only two will go forward to Tokyo, so it's going to be a very tough qualifier.
Amy trains at the Renfrew Leisure Centre club
