The English Schools' Athletics Championships are annual national athletics competitions organised by the English Schools' Athletic Association ESAA for students in England aged 12–18 for track and field, cross country and race walking.

The events are used to select the English team for the Schools International Athletics Board competitions (which involve England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland) and the ISF World Schools' Cross Country Championships and World Schools Track & Field Championships.[1]

Age groups edit

Age groups for the championships are defined based on a student's age on 31 August of the school year in which the competition is held as follows:[2]

Group (Boys, Girls) Age at 31 August Age at Event School Year
Junior (JB, JG) 13–14 12–14 8–9
Intermediate (IB, IG) 15–16 14–16 10–11
Senior (SB, SG) 17–18 16–18 12–13

Track and field championships edit

The track and field championships have been held every year since 1925 (except for 1940–1945 due to World War II), are the 4th largest athletics event in the world and since 2003 have been held at the major athletics venues of Birmingham Alexander Stadium, Sportscity, Manchester,Gateshead International Stadium and former Sheffield Don Valley Stadium.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

Teams earn points based on the finishing position of their students in each event and their performances levels.[12] The teams compete for various trophies based on their points earned. Since 1951 Essex have attained the overall highest points total the most times.

Cross country championships edit

The cross country championships have been held every year since 1960 for boys and 1968 for girls (except for 2001 due to the foot-and-mouth outbreak). Originally separate events were held for boys and girls but since 1989 they have always been combined.
