British Athletics has now selected a team of 15 for the World Para Athletics Junior Championships which will take place in Nottwil, Switzerland from 1-4 August 2019.
We are delighted to announce that among those selected to represent the country is our very own Under 20 sprinter, India Oates!
Team Leader Sarah Benson commented: “We are delighted to select 15 athletes for the second World Para Athletics Junior Championships. This event serves as an important step for these athletes in the Paralympic performance pathway and will be a fantastic opportunity to experience the international competition environment.
She goes on to say, “It will be a great learning experience for these exciting prospects and I’m sure it will help them in preparation for future potential Paralympic Games and senior world championships.”
