Tokyo Paralympian, Commonwealth and European medallist Barry McClements (National Centre Ulster) will travel to his second Games in Paris.
Clements joined the Irish panel shortly after the Rio Games and claimed gold in the 400m freestyle at the 2017 Para Swimming World Series 2017 held in Copenhagen. At just 15, he won in impressive style; taking four seconds off his personal best.
His path to the Paralympic Games this time around has not been easy having suffered a fractured femur in September 2023.
