County Track and Field Championships 2018

County Championships will be taking place across England this summer. The vast majority of events will be happening on the weekend of 12 and 13 May with some counties also arranging additional events to take place at other times.

As well as bringing you information about these County Championships, England Athletics also has a scheme where county associations can apply for grants to help support them with improved quality of championships provision. This can include helping to fund such resources as electronic timing and electronic distance measurement. 2018 grant information will be made available soon.

To find out more about your county's championships see the information below. Remember in general you can compete at your County Championships if you were born in that county or have resided there for a specific amount of time. Check the details for the county you wish to compete for. For many counties, the championships provide opportunities for those athletes wanting to be selected for their county at the England Athletics AAA & UK CAU Senior Champs.

Please note:

  • Some details may be subject to change
  • Queries about county championships should be directed to the relevant county association.
  • More information about the work of county associations and the UKCAU is available at www.englandathletics.org/ukcau
