Congratulations to the 11 athletes selected to represent the Welsh Schools’ Athletics Association at the Schools Combined Events International on Saturday 6 December 2025, Glasgow, Scotland.
Rhys Williams - Pathway Lead and National Talent Development Coordinator – Sprints:
This competition is a fantastic opportunity for our young athletes to represent Wales on the international stage once again. The Schools Combined Events International is always a highlight of the season for the event group, which provides them a chance to test themselves against the best from across the other home nations and show the hard work that they’ve put in since the Summer season. We're excited to see them compete well once again and gain some valuable experience as part of their development.
Steve Jones - Chair, WSAA
The Scottish Schools event provides the only opportunity for our aspiring multi-eventers to test themselves in high level competition with the best in the UK and Ireland.
We look forward to the weekend and the chance to work with our brightest and best.
