MICROPLUS ANNOUNCED AS TITLE SPONSOR FOR THE 2024 UK ATHLETICS INDOOR CHAMPIONSHIPS

UK Athletics is pleased to announce Microplus as the title sponsor for the UK Athletics Indoor Championships on 17-18 February 2024 at the Utilita Arena in Birmingham.

With over 20 years’ experience operating at high profile sports events worldwide, Microplus has worked with UK Athletics on our national Championships since 2022, and also worked at several athletics events and multisport events worldwide (including Commonwealth Games, Mediterranean Games, Universiade Games, EYOF) providing a Central Results System (CRS), Timing & Scoring On Venue Results System (OVR) and Commentator Information System (CIS).

Microplus will provide their service once again for the 2024 edition of the Indoor Championships, as well as being the title sponsor for the prestigious fixture in the athletics calendar.

The Microplus UK Athletics Indoor Championships will see national titles on the line, as well as serving as the Official Trial event for the World Athletics Indoor Championships in Glasgow, Scotland on 1-3 March 2024. With the best athletes in the country vying for places on the Great Britain and Northern Ireland team for another major Championships on home soil, this will be an event not to be missed.

With 28 disciplines – 14 for both men and women – taking place across the two days, it promises to be a highly entertaining two-days of action to start off the Olympic and Paralympic year.
