The Park World Tour kicks off tomorrow (9th March) in the Italian area of Puglia. Great Britain has sent a team of 10 athletes. Tomorrow sees the first qualification race, with the top 8 in each heat going through to the first race on Thursday. In the womens race there are only 10 in each heat so all runners should be hopeful of qualifying. In the mens races there are 18-19 in each heat so qualifying will be a lot tougher.

World Sprint Champion Jamie Stevenson has pulled out of the PWT allowing rookie Matt Crane in.

The GBR Team:

Helen Bridle
Sarah Rollins
Joanne Stevenson
Claire Ward
Jenny Whitehead

and

Nick Barrable
Matthew Crane
Oli Johnson
Ewan McCarthy
