Skater Jacey Maloret is hoping to bring a medal back to Pewsey, 18 months after Shelley Rudman won silver in the winter Olympics.
Jacey, ten, a pupil at Pewsey Primary School, will be roller skating for Great Britain in Portugal on October 6.
She has had a meteoric rise through the ranks of artistic roller-skating since taking it up in April last year.
Jacey, who lives in Wilcot Road with her parents and brother Jack, 12, was successful when selection took place at Milton Keynes last week. This was despite the fact that she had fallen and broken an arm six weeks earlier and had only had the plaster off for three days.
Her mum Mandy said some of Jacey's quick adaptation to the sport was due to the ballet lessons she had from the age of three.
Jacey, a member of the Moonrakers roller skating club that meets in Pewsey and Marlborough leisure centres, said she was thrilled. She said: "I couldn't believe it when I heard I had been selected."
