Jake Norris was one of seven athletes across six events in which Team GB had no entrant at Stade de France as a result of UKA ’s policy.
Five of those seven athletes all deemed qualified’ on their world rankings would have reached their final in Paris on the basis of their best performance this year .
A petition has been signed by more than 10,000 people, Swedish athletes are trying to take a similar policy to the Court of Arbitration for Sport .
There is also a feeling that the policy has seen people in field events face disproportionately high standards.
UKA announced a 3.7 million loss in their most recent accounts but have previously suggested that the policy is not linked to money.
The Paris policy was first published in July 2023 and part of its rationale was to introduce measurable standards that eliminated more discretionary decisions.
The standards were created and circulated by the UKA event group lead and aimed to reflect the expected requirement to progress within the event.
