As President of the British Olympic Association, I want to send you all my congratulations on your performance at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.

Every single Olympic Winter Games is unique and special for its own reasons, and this Games is no different.

These Olympic Winter Games have been challenging and unprecedented for you, your coaches, families and support teams in so many ways. We are still in the midst of a global pandemic that has made travel, preparation and competition difficult.

With this in mind, you should be proud of your collective performances in Beijing.

I would particularly like to mention the curling teams who have captured the imagination of the country. Many congratulations on your medal success.
