UK Athletics has unveiled the 44-strong squad set to represent Great Britain and Northern Ireland at the European U23 Athletics Championships, scheduled to take place in Bergen, Norway, from 17 to 20 July. The team includes several athletes already experienced on the senior international stage, as well as a crop of promising youngsters who have previously earned medals at U18 or U20 level. With seven gold medals and a total of 14 podium finishes at the previous edition in Espoo, expectations are high once again. This British contingent will be looking to reaffirm its dominant position in European age-group athletics.
