UK Athletics has announced the NU GB & NI men’s and women’s combined events teams to compete in Finland and Holland this weekend.

 

The men’s team includes Daniel Awde (Woodford Green & Essex Ladies) who currently tops the UK Athletics Power of Ten rankings for the decathlon, and will seek to confirm the form that saw him achieve an Olympic B Standard at the England CE championships at the start of the month. The men will compete in the First League in Jyväskylä, Finland.

 

From the women, current UK number one ranked hepathlete Julie Hollman (Birchfield Harriers) will be determined to find those extra 59 points which could see her achieve the Olympic A standard and reach Beijing.

 

Hollman scored 5941 at the England Combined Events championships and will hope competing at Hengelo, the traditional home of the combined events Super League will give her the ideal Olympic qualifying chance.
