Ukraine is sending a team of 44 athletes to compete at the 11th IAAF World Championships in Athletics, Osaka, Japan (25 Aug to 2 Sep).

Heading the team will be Ukraine’s lone medallist from the last World Championships in Helsinki in 2005, Yuriy Krymarenko, who is the reigning World High Jump champion.

Other names to look out for are the World Indoor 1500m champion Ivan Heshko, and 2.32m high jumper Dmytro Demyanyuk, and on the women’s side the combined eventers, Lyudmyla Blonska and Nataliya Dobrynska, and 2006 European XC Champion, Tetyana Holovchenko.

The team will first travel to a training camp in South Korea, which has similar climatic conditions to these which they will face in Japan.
