UKCAU Championships return to the England Athletics Senior/U20 Championships

From 2007, the Inter Country Track and Field Championships have been held as part of the England Athletics Senior Championships. This was the case until 2020, when the combination of the pandemic, the Commonwealth Games, and a packed summer season meant that the championships could not be re-instated until July 2024. We had 13 counties involved then and it would be brilliant if we could build on that this year. It has given us a strong foundation to build on and improve upon.
