Armand Duplantis announced earlier this week that he is over the championship, but the squad still contains 19 names, several of which have good chances for medals.
- We have a number of active players who have already shown in the past that they can perform at the very highest level and compete for the medals.
Many others also have good chances to reach the final.
We are really excited for this year's first international championships, says federation captain Kajsa Bergqvist on the Swedish Athletics Federation's website.
Settled in Turkey
Among the medalists, long jumper Khaddi Sagnia (seventh in Europe this winter), Fanny Roos in the shot put (fourth in Europe) and long jumper Thobias Montler (second in Europe) are among others.
The European Indoor Championship will be decided Wednesday-Sunday next week in Istanbul.
