Scotland's Danny Keatings is celebrating Olympic selection. The teenager has been named along with his Huntingdon clubmate, Louis Smith, to represent Britain at the Games in Beijing in August.

While Britain didn't qualify for the men's team event, there were two individual places on offer and they have deservedly gone to Keatings, the European Junior Champion, and England's Smith, a bronze medallist on the Pommel Horse at last year's world championships.

"It's a great honour to be able to represent my country in something which has been my dream for my whole life," said Keatings, who trains alongside Smith under coach Paul Hall in Cambridgeshire.  "It hasn't really sunk in yet, but I am very excited and I can't wait to get to Beijing."

Corby-based Keatings, whose father comes from Edinburgh, has trained with Hall for the past ten years and is a full-time gymnast. At 17, he became the youngest ever British medallist at a major event with a silver medal on the Pommel Horse at last year's European junior Championships.

At the European junior Championships in Lausanne last month, he captained Britain to victory in the team event as well as becoming the overall individual champion.
