Already 75% of tickets sold

PRAHA (CZE): Already 75% of tickets are sold for the IAAF Continental Cup in Ostrava in September. LOC head and Czech Athletics Federation president Libor Varhanik informed at todays press conference. The dates are September 8-9 and the event will be full of innovations. Something special will be the role of team Captains, for example Colin Jackson for Europe or Mike Powell for team Americas. In the promotion of the event kids are competing in a special feature “Ostrava supports the continents”. The biggest global event of the 2018 summer season should attract many stars of the sport to compete in Czech Republic. Europe and Africa team will be selected based on the continental championships, teams of America and Asia/Pacific by the results in the 2018 season.

I can’t explain the amazingness of yesterday evening. So many people excited about Athletics. The vibe in the stadion was something I have never ever experienced before. The very humble Wayde van Niekerk smashing another world record. Clarence Munyai following the humble footsteps of Wayde and smashing the junior world record. Isaac Makwala making Botswana proud finishing 2nd in the very unique 300m event. Usian Bolt greeting one of his favourite meetings and the best of all – My own sister finally running the well deserved sub 13 and getting a silver medal on an occasion such as this. I was definitely supporter of the occasion. Shouting and jumping. Ostrava I will never forget you! #ostravagoldenspike #ostrava #speedysteenkamp #100mhurdles #athletics #proudlysouthafrican
