What are the PB Awards?

The PB Awards are a series of awards, with nine levels of progression per age group, which celebrate athletes reaching new ‘personal bests’ in all track and field events.

The PB Awards are aimed at athletes from under 10s through to seniors.

There are different award tables for every athletics event including combined events. They cover for each age group, for both male and female athletes aimed at the whole athletics community.

For Para athletes, the tables provided use the various Classifications for each event area.
