This page will be updated regularly in the run up to the Championships - depending on how your
browser is set up you may need to click your refresh button to get the latest additions.
Because of the size of the event, it is impossible to hold all field events within the arena. Some
of the long throws will be held in the lower field adjacent to the Stadium.
This website makes extensive use of PDF files - most browsers should be automatically set up to
read them, but if your browser just shows a load of random characters, you need
to install Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can download this FREE at www.adobe.com.
You really do need to install this if you want to get the best from the ESAA website.
All competitors will be issued with the full printed programme which will be on sale at the
Championships. It is the ESAA policy not to publish the full programme on the website - sales of programmes
with the sponsors' advertising they contain are a major source of income without which the Championships could not be held.
Please see the FAQs page
for further details and answers to many other Frequently Asked Questions about the Championships.
Entry List of Athletes
Lists of all athletes entered in the Championhsips are available here. Please check the spelling of names
is correct. It is now too late to get any corrections into the programme
but they will appear in the results. Please use the 'contact us' button on the main menu - corrections will be
noted and our live event files will be modified accordingly, but because of the high volume of other mail we get in the run up to the Championships we don't have time to acknowledge each mail, nor will these
online files be updated with corrections - sorry, we just don't have the time!
Over 1650 athletes are entered in the National Championships, but many more will be probably be disappointed not to have been selected.
PLEASE don't contact us to complain that you didn't make your County team. Team selection is entirely in the hands
of each County Team Manager and the ESAA has no say in how or why teams are selected as they are. Sorry...but we simply cannot
respond to hundreds of e-mails - please read the FAQs page which answers many of your your questions.
