Team GB at Baku 2015: Day Five Preview

History-maker Jade Jones is bidding to follow Charlie Maddock's lead todayand secure another European Games taekwondo medal for Team GB in Baku.

Jones became the first Team GB athlete ever to win an Olympic gold medal in her sport when she took the title at London 2012 and also won gold at the first-ever Youth Olympic Games Singapore two years earlier.

The inaugural European Games could see her bring home another medal in the -57kg category, just as 19-year-old compatriot Maddock did earlier last night with a dramatic gold in the -49kg.

Jones acknowledges she’s the one to beat as she faces up to preliminary round opponent Despina Pilavaki but is ready to embrace the challenge.

“Because you are Olympic champion everybody assumes you are a perfect athlete and will never lose,” said the 22-year-old.

“But I am still young and I still don't know the game fully.

“Now, I am trying to go into a contest not just thinking, 'I want to win, I want to win' but thinking ‘what is my game plan? How can I win?'.”

Team GB's beach volleyball duo of Chris Gregory and Jake Sheaf also get their European Games under way tomorrow against Group G opponents Austria.

And Gregory is hoping they can make a statement as they bid to qualify for next year's Olympic Games in Rio.

“Myself and Jake are both very ambitious and we want to be successful on the biggest stage, which for beach volleyball is the Olympics,” said Gregory, the tallest member of Team GB's squad at 210cm.

“The European Games is a start to this and we head there looking to lay down a marker and showing everyone what we are all about.”

From Team GB's tallest athlete to the smallest, 14-year-old Hannah Baughn, standing 145cm, features in the acrobatic gymnastics mixed pair balance and dynamic qualifiers alongside Ryan Bartlett.

After receiving first-round byes, table tennis stars Liam Pitchford and Paul Drinkhall kick-off their respective singles campaigns tomorrow, while bantamweight boxer Qais Ashfaq steps into the ring for the first time in Baku.

There are medals on the line in the men's trap shooting, but first Ed Ling and Bradley Davis must look to improve on their standings in qualifying after end day four in 10th and 26th place respectively.

Naomi Folkard, Nicky Hunt and Amy Oliver face Georgia for a place in the women's team archery quarter-finals. And the trampoline individual qualification gets started with Luke Strong, Laura Gallagher and London 2012 Olympian Katherine Driscoll all in action.
