UK Athletics Update on European Throwing Cup

UK Athletics can confirm that, following security advice, we will not send a team to the upcoming European Throwing Cup. Given the ongoing situation in the Middle East and heightened security concerns related to British activity in Cyprus, we believe the unknown risk and potential disruption to the team is too great. The team were selected earlier this week, and we share our athletes’ disappointment. We wish all involved a successful event and look forward to returning in 2027.
