Conor O'Shea and Thomas Lurz are to form part of a panel of experts appointed by British Swimming to support and contribute to its London 2012 Performance Debrief.

O'Shea is a former national director of the English Institute of Sport and current director of rugby at Harlequins, with experience of coaching, sport science and sport medicine.

Meanwhile, German-born Lurz is a two-time Olympic marathon swimming medallist and is to contribute to analysis of Team GB's open water swimming performance.

The panel will be chaired by Craig Hunter - an independent member of British Swimming's management board - and will also include national performance director Michael Scott.

The debrief has been started in order to examine reasons behind Team GB's failure to reach its medal target and how it can improve going forward to the Rio 2016 Games.

Team GB came joint 15th in the swimming medal table for the London 2012 Olympics, with just one silver and two bronze medals achieved. For details, click here.
