England Athletics Championships showcased record-breaking performances, while UK Athletics announced selection criteria for the 2025 World Championships.

The England Athletics Open U20/U17/U15 Indoor Championships delivered an electrifying showcase of young talent on February 8-9, 2025. Athletes shattered multiple records, underscoring the immense potential of the next generation of English competitors. The atmosphere was charged as spectators witnessed remarkable performances across various events, marking a historic weekend in athletics.

In addition to the thrilling championships, UK Athletics has unveiled its selection policy for the upcoming 2025 World Championships in Tokyo. This new policy introduces `B` standards for every event, a significant shift from previous years where some events lacked such benchmarks. Athletes must not only meet these UK Athletics standards but also secure a spot on the World Athletics` Road To Tokyo list to be eligible for selection.

The qualification periods for achieving these standards vary, with most individual events having a window from August 1, 2024, to August 24, 2025. Notably, reigning world champions from the 2023 Budapest World Championships, including Josh Kerr and Katarina Johnson-Thompson, will receive wildcards for the Tokyo event. While the UK Athletics standards are slightly more accessible than the World Athletics standards, they still demand specific performance marks for qualification.
