As this action-packed summer of athletics and running continues, the imminent Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games give us chance to not just support our elite athletes on the biggest stage, but to recognise and highlight the contributions of the many who have helped them get there, and those who will be inspired by their performances.

Continuing our series of interviews with British officials who will be volunteering at the Paris Olympics and Paralympics, we got the chance to ask Chris Cohen a few questions about his officiating journey and experiences along the way. This year is a notable one for Chris – not only is he celebrating 50 years of officiating, but 2024 is a first for him – and for our country; his first time as Technical Delegate at an Olympics. The TD is the most senior competition management position and Chris is the first British official to be TD at an Olympics AND a World Championships! His role is to oversee overall competition organisation from appointment to completion of competition reports.

We caught up with top level Technical Official Alison Jordan at the Loughborough International this year and talked about her experiences and her officiating journey from County champs to Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Officiating gives you the chance to leave your unique mark on the sport. We caught up with Mark Ellis to discuss his unique officiating dynamic with son, Dominic, and how they are giving back to athletics together.
