Inter-counties Selection:
The first 6 from the race at Bath will automatically be offered places in the Gloucestershire inter-county team. There is no January race in the Gloucestershire League
this year so we will use a combination of the Bath race and the SW Counties Championship on 4th January to select the other two places and the reserves.
Athletes wishing to be considered for selection but not able to race in either or both of those races should email gloucestershireaaa@athletics4u.co.uk by 5th January 2025 with
* the reason they were not able to race either or both of those
events
* any other race results from the current season.
In recent seasons, the first two finishers in
each of the relevant races (U13 / U15 / U17; both genders) of the SW CC Championships received automatic qualification for the South-West team for the next London Mini Marathon. This is under
discussion for 2025.
Note that we need a selector ofr the senior men's and senior women's teams; with this position being filled there may not be teams entered for this races. The selector is not the same role a team
manager.
