    It's shaping up to be a busy Birmingham Commonwealth Games for swimmer Helena  Gasson

    It's shaping up to be a busy Birmingham Commonwealth Games for swimmer Helena Gasson


    The 27-year-old has been selected in New Zealand's 12 strong team, in what will be her second Commonwealth Games.

    She's racing in the 200 metres individual medley, but also has permission to start in the 200, 100 and 50 metres butterfly and 50 metres backstroke.

    But Gasson says she might give backstroke a miss.
