World Youth Opportunity For Hurdlers

Due to the lack of competition opportunities for male U18 hurdlers to gain the UKA qualifying mark for the 2007 IAAF World Youths Championships in Ostrava, Czech Republic, a special competition opportunity has been created.

 

It has been decided that a race over 110m hurdles (91.4cm) distance will take place on Saturday 23 June at the England Athletics U20/U23 Championships at Bedford.

 

Whilst this is not an official trial competition, it will be a final chance for athletes to compete over this rarely run event prior to team selection.

 

If this is a race which you would like to be considered for and your date of birth is in the year 1990, 1991 or 1992, then please email Rob Denmark at rdenmark@ukathletics.org.uk with details to include your club, personal and seasons best times and date of birth. The entry deadline is Monday 11 June.
