Shaftesbury Barnet athletes will be competing for the Norwich Union GB & NI team at this month's SPAR European Cup in Annecy, France.
The squad was announced today, with Emma Ania, Tasha Danvers, Noni Mordi, Lee McConnell and Marilyn Okoro all included.
Ania will run in the 100m, while Danvers will compete in the 400m hurdles. Mordi will take part in the triple jump, while McConnell and Okoro will take part in the 4x400m relay.
Dave Collins, UK Athletics Performance Manager, said: "In an Olympic year, the European Cup is obviously not top of our priority list, but it is still an important competition. We have selected the strongest team available to us and I expect many of our athletes to use this opportunity as part of their build up towards Beijing.
"There were several difficult decisions to make during the selection process and that is a reflection of some of the depth of quality now emerging in some events."
