European Athletics is pleased to confirm the final entries for the 14th European Cup Winter Throwing in Leiria, Portugal, on 15-16 March.

Many of Europe's top throwers use this meeting as an early season guide to their form. It’s also a timely chance for them to brush away the cobwebs after weeks of training during the indoor season.

An interesting battle is expected in the senior men’s hammer between Hungary’s Krisztian Pars and Poland’s Pawel Fajdek. Pars is the reigning champion from last year, but Fajdek surprised him at the World Championships in Moscow to take gold.

There will be live streaming of the European Cup Winter Throwing at the following link:http://vsprt.com/ItIMqf.

The stream will be free to view, users simply needing to sign into the website. Videos of the individual throws will be available on demand after the event and can be played back in slow motion. 

Video interviews from the event will be uploaded at www.youtube.com/EuropeanAthletics after the competition.
