Livermore, CA (March 12, 2015)FINIS, Inc., a worldwide leader in technical swimming development, proudly announces Adam Barrett as the newest  sponsored athlete signed to Team FINIS.

Adam Barrett has charged onto the European swimming scene with standout performances in sprint freestyle and butterfly races. In the summer of 2014, Barrett was a member of two gold-winning 4 x 100m medley relays at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow and later at the European Aquatic Championships in Berlin.

“Adam’s leg on the 4 x 100m relay at the Commonwealth Games was truly impressive. Adam’s individual and relay performances are very exciting, and we look forward to supporting him as he continues to excel throughout the season. Adam’s commitment to his team and country is contagious and we look forward to adding that energy to Team FINIS.” —Grant Turner, FINIS Marketing Manager, Europe

Barrett began swimming at an early age with the Tilehurst Swimming Club in Reading, England. His career gained real momentum when he began training with the sprint team at the University of Loughbborough, a move to which he credits much of his current success. Over the next five years, Barrett will have a sharp focus on representing Great Britain at the world’s most elite competitions.

The announcement of Barrett’s FINIS sponsorship comes as a precursor to this weekend’s Edinburgh International Swim Meet. Barrett and fellow members of Team FINIS including Daniel Jervis and Anthony Ervin are slated to race against a collection of the fastest swimmers in the world.
