EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES

Athletics is the Nation's number one Olympic and Paralympic sport and one of the world's few truly global sports, with 200 countries participating at the last IAAF World Championships alone. UK Athletics ("UKA") is the National Governing Body for Athletics in the UK. Our four primary roles are: governance of the sport, staging world class events, securing commercial income to fund the sport and developing athletes and coaches to achieve success on the world stage.

UK Athletics has worked closely with the Home Country Athletic Federations ("HCAFs") to finalise and agree a new vision for athletics in the UK. This fresh, ambitious, unified vision for the sport covers all areas of activity, including mass participation, athlete pathways, coaching, elite performance, major events and commercial income, whilst putting schools, clubs, coaches and volunteers at its heart.
