TEAM GB'S Olympic stars today vowed to inspire the next generation of athletes as they visited a London youth club a day after returning home from Paris.
Lola Anderson, who helped win Britain's first gold in the women's quadruple sculls, said the response from the public had been "overwhelming in the best way" since arriving back in London.
She was joined on the visit to North Paddington Youth Club by boxer Lewis Richardson, who won bronze in the 71kg category, double medal-winning diver Noah Williams, and Britain's most successful men's gymnast Max Whitlock, who bid farewell to the sport after clinching three gold medals in previous tournaments.
The athletes signed autographs, posed for pictures and played basketball with children from the area.
