Hamilton Bland (born 1943) was a leading BBC swimming commentator, once known as the "Voice of Swimming". Bland originally worked at Rugby School before he became the chief coach to the British Olympic team from 1968 to 1972. Bland was employed as a swimming commentator by the BBC from 1975 to 1998.
He trained with other members of the British team in the Ponds Forge swimming complex in Sheffield. In 1998 Leon invented the 5255b; a back 2.5 somersaults, 2.5 twists [8] [9] which at the time was the World's most difficult dive with a tariff of 3.8. Following a rule change in 2009, the dive now carries a tariff of 3.6. [10]
He was the BBC's regular commentator on swimming for many years, covering the sport at many Olympic and Commonwealth Games, often with Anita Lonsbrough. He occasionally commentated on cricket, and often covered the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race which turned out to be his last time commentating on a sporting event.
