James Heatley achieved bronze in the 1m Springboard event at Gold Coast 2018, making him Scotland’s first Diving medalist since his grandfather’s success in 1958.
Prior to this, James proved himself in the Junior Championships where he won a bronze medal. He went on to represent Scotland, aged 17 at the Glasgow Commonwealth games where he finished in the top 10 for both the 1m and 3m springboard.
James’s success built over the years, not least in 2017 and 2018 where he won several medals at the British Championships and finished in the top 10 during the World Championships in 2017.
