Marlins Swim Club Founder, Ralph Quaye, has talked about how proud he is of Ghanaian swimmer Harry Stacey who is set to compete in his first Olympics.<\/p>\n

Stacey will compete in the 100 Metre Men\u2019s Freestyle heat on Tuesday, July 30 at 9:15 GMT as Ghana\u2019s first athlete to feature in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.<\/p>\n

Stacey featured in the 2023 ChannelOne TV National Swimming Championship<\/strong> for Marlins and played a key role in Marlins triumph as the overall best performing team.<\/p>\n

In an interview with ChannelOne Sports<\/strong> ahead of Stacey\u2019s debut in the Olympics, Quaye praised Stacey\u2019s rise to the elite level.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s incredible, I\u2019m incredibly proud. When he joined us three years ago, that was always his dream; to participate in the Olympics. We told him that we have his back, we learn from him, he learns from us and it\u2019s nice to see that the goal was achieved three years down the line.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ralph Quaye, Founder of Marlins Swim Club<\/p>\n

Stacey is one of just two Ghanaian swimmers competing the 2024 Olympics. Joselle Mensah will compete in the Women\u2019s 50 Metre Freestyle heat on August 3.<\/p>\n
