How to enter the Kads London Ballot Place
Each year England Athletics shares out a set number of London Marathon places among affiliated clubs. KADS is allocated a single place. We allocate this to a club member each year through an internal ballot process. To try and make this as fair as possible, the club places the following restrictions on who can enter the ballot.
- Provide proof of a rejection from the London Marathon public ballot.
- Are first claim KADS members.
- Are EA affiliated before the end of the current London public ballot.
- Will continue to be a member of KADS at the time of the race.
- Have not had the club place in the previous 3 years.
- Have not obtained a ‘Good for Age’ or ‘Championship’ place (if this is a possibility, a reserve name will be drawn).
Whoever wins the club place must also be aware that:
- The club place may only be transferred to another member of KADS who meets the above criteria and only with the permission of the committee.
- The runner representing the club at the race will be expected to wear their KADS vest or t-shirt.
Due to the increasing popularity of the race, the club reserves the right to alter these criterion before the next London Marathon. Any changes will be communicated out before the next club ballot takes place.
