The Highly-Anticipated Aviva Grand Prix Athletics 2012
The Aviva Grand Prix Athletics, formerly known as the Norwich Union Indoor Grand Prix, is a yearly event focused on indoor track and field competitions. It is held during the middle of February at the National Indoor Arena located in Birmingham, England. It is one of those few events that hold the IAAF Indoor Permit Meetings status. It is much awaited and anticipated especially by die-hard sports fans since it is one of the major meetings of the indoors athletics season. It also often serves as the preparatory event for other sporting events such as the biennial European Athletics Indoor Championships as well as the IAAF World Indoor Championships.
Former star athlete Ian Stewart directs the meeting. The event attracts sports superstars from all over the world including those that have won medals in the Olympics. Another thing to be noted about this event is that it is one of the three indoor athletics competitions in the United Kingdom that are sponsored by Aviva. The other two are the Aviva International Match in Glasgow and the Aviva UK Indoor Championships. The rebranding of the event was held in 2009. The venue where this event is held is also used for various competitions, all international level. For example, it also hosted the IAAF World Indoor Championships in 2003 and the European Athletics Indoor Championships in 2007.
This year, the event returned to the same venue last February 18, 2012. It was another memorable event that brought together the best athletes from different countries to showcase their talents and prowess in various sporting events.
