The championships will be organised by Federacion Andaluza de Atletismo, with support from the Estepona Town Council, Andalucia’s Regional Sports Department and Club Atletismo Estepona. 

Club Atletismo Estepona hopes to send 20 athletes after the local competitors took home more than 20 medals in the 2025 edition. 

Estepona has a history of hosting world-class competitions

Local town athletics facilities in Estepona have regularly held major Andalucian events over the  recent years, including previous Masters Championships and regional youth competitions. Due to its incredible climate, the Costa del Sol makes it a great place to host sporting events at this time of year. 

In the past, championships held in the same stadium had attracted over 1,000 athletes from Andalucia. Thousands of events were recorded in multiple disciplines. 

Club Atletismo Estepona also had a strong performance in previous editions held in the city. Estepona’s athletes collected 24 medals at a previous championship, including relay golds as well as field event wins. 

Estepona is preparing for another weekend packed with regional athletics competitions.
