Brittany O’Brien (Diving), will compete at her second Commonwealth Games in Birmingham in the 1m springboard and also team up with Esther Qin in the 3m synchronised. O’Brien began in the sport when she was 10, although she took time off in her mid-teens as she struggled with issues outside the pool. However, on her return, she attacked the sport with vigour, narrowly missing Olympic selection in 2016 though named as a reserve. Then, a shoulder injury to Brittany Broben earned her a late call-up for Rio where the 18-year-old schoolgirl reached the semi-finals of the 10m platform as the youngest member of the diving team. Commonwealth Games selection came in 2018 and Brittany finished 7th in the 10m platform behind Melissa Wu. She withdrew from the Olympic trials for Tokyo but has come back with renewed enthusiasm for her second Commonwealth Games in Birmingham and further into the future with the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Brittany has over 500,000 followers on TikTok and also owns a Jewellery Brand called Draco Jewellery, which she launched in 2020.
