Fifteen athletes who hold the world U18 lead in their respective events will be in action at the European Athletics U18 Championships (final entries can be found here) including Serbia’s Angelina Topic who recently equalled the world U18 best with 1.96m in the high jump.
The women’s high jump could be one of the highest quality events of the championships with no fewer than four athletes with lifetime bests in excess of 1.90m due to compete, including Johanna Goring from Germany who was fourth at the Tallinn 2021 European Athletics U20 Championships last summer.
Also watch out for the precocious and charismatic Mattia Furlani who is also seeking medals in his age-group after reaching the final in Tallinn last year when he competed against athletes up to three years his senior.
Furlani has improved to 2.16m in the high jump but he also produced a sensational 7.87m long jump at the Italian U18 Championships in his first serious outdoor competition. Furlani has entered both events at the championships.
Germany’s Jolanda Kallabis is another prospective star of the championships. The multi-talented German leads the 2022 European list in both the 1500m (4:14.08) and 2000m steeplechase (6:23.82) but she will be focusing solely on the latter in Jerusalem where she could face Denmark’s Sofia Thogersen, the silver medallist in the 3000m without the barriers at the European Athletics U20 Championships last year.
And some of Europe’s smaller nations could also make an impact at the championships. Cypriot hammer throwers Iosif Kesidis and Valentina Savva lead the European U18 list in the men’s and women’s hammer respectively and long jumper Brina Likar could challenge for Slovenia’s first ever European U18 gold medal, an event in which she leads the world U18 list with 6.54m.
