Norwich Union GB Junior Team For Loughborough International
8 May 2008
UK Athletics have today named a strong junior team to compete at the Loughborough International on Sunday 18 May.
Amongst those selected for the season’s key opening fixture are World Youth 400m champion Chris Clarke (Marshal Milton Keynes), and world cross country representatives Dave Forrester (St Helens), Mitch Goose (City of Norwich), Emma Pallant (Aldershot Farnham & District) and Laura Park (Ellenborough).
The fixture will form a key part of athlete’s preparations, with their efforts culminating with the World Junior Championships in Bydgoszcz on 8-13 July.
GB Junior team leader Martin Rush said:
“As with any World Championship year, competition for places on the team is strong as athletes seek to use this as the first stepping stone towards Poland in July.
“Not only is there close competition for places amongst themselves, but the qualifying standards as before reflect the standard required to make the final at World Junior level.
“Therefore, Loughborough should provide many of these athletes with an excellent opportunity to demonstrate their form with the trials little more than a month away.”
