The 2023 European Athletics Team Championships (ETC) in athletics was held at Stadion Śląski in Chorzów, Poland, from 20 to 25 June 2023.[1]
The event was initially planned to be held in Madrid,[2][3] but after European Athletics and European Olympic Committee reached an agreement, the event was added to the 2023 European Games programme and moved to Poland.[4] Madrid will host the 2025 ETC.
Unlike previous editions, individual gold, silver and bronze medals were awarded in addition to the medals and cup in the teams competition as part of the 2023 European Games program. The individual medals were decided on best performances across all three divisions, and the winners and medalists in the individual events were considered as European Games medalists, rather than Team Championships medalists - only the members of the first three teams in the First Division table received Team Championships medals. Within the Championships, events from 100 metres to 800 metres were run in two heats, with times combined into a single table for the purposes of both points in the Team Championships and medal placings in the European Games.[5] Officials have indicated that the 16-team version of the Team Championships will become a permanent inclusion in the European Games program, returning in 2027, while stand alone team events will be held in the middle year of the European Games cycle (with the next inter-Games event in Madrid in 2025).[6]
In addition to prizes and medals, the three highest teams in the second and third divisions shall be promoted for the next edition of the championships, and the bottom three teams of the first and second division relegated.[7]
The competition consisted of three divisions, instead of four leagues, based on the results of the 2021 Championships.[8][9] 1st Division competed in the evening sessions of 23–25 June, while 3rd Division in the morning sessions and the 2nd Division in the evening sessions of 20–22 June.[10]
There were only 37 events in 2023 and not 40 as before: the 4 × 400 m relays, both male and female, were cancelled and replaced by a newly introduced mixed relay which concluded the championships.
As a result of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, teams from Russia and Belarus were banned from competing at the 2023 European Team Championships.[11]
The overall schedule of the championships was as follows.
