Overturn UKA's decision to not send qualified athletes to the Olympic games


Overturn UKA's decision to not send qualified athletes to the Olympic games
The Issue
Serveral UK athletes have been denied participation in the Paris 2024 Olympics, despite meeting the qualification critera set out by the International Olympic Committee and World Athletics.
This decison was made by UKA. The UKA has defended their decision stating that 'an athlete getting to the Olympics with little chance of qualifiying from their heat or pool does not have a significant impact on inspiring the nation, and therefore does not merit public funding'.
We disagree. If you join us in these views then please sign this petition and request that the British Olympic Association and UK sport intervene.
