“Some of them are really down at the moment cause they’ve trained hard and they looked forward to this competition where most of them probably had been tapering off but now I think they would have to go back to when it was originally locked down where they would have to either find time to go and train at the sea or find a private pool where they could train and also do their gym work”.

The qualifiers which was supposed to be held tomorrow has now been shifted to 21st May.
