Additional reinforcement for the British team
Shortly prior to the start of the Commonwealth Games the British Athletic Federation has yet again reinforced its team for the European Championships in Munich (6 to 11 August). 14 athletes now complete the team, who are meanwhile up to the required standard or who have been assessed positively in the really difficult cases.
"We have selected athletes who are in good form", explained Max Jones, the British director for competitive sports. John Mayock (1500m), Dalton Grant (high jump) and the old hand, Robert Weir (discus), are the most well-known of the athletes who have recently been nominated.The British Team
