Sport on Tenerife - The IX European Winter Cup Throwing

It might be worth wearing a hard hat and safety gear if you happen to be strolling around Los Realejos or Puerto de la Cruz this weekend as both towns are playing host to the IX European Winter Cup Throwing competition.

Hammers, javelin, shot put and discus will be flying through the air as 400 of the top sportsmen and sportswomen from around 33 countries compete against each other for the prized gold medals

Venues: Municipal Stadium in Los Realejos and...well if the website is right what looks like a bit of waste ground on the road leading to Playa Jardín in Puerto de la Cruz.

Dates: 14th – 15th March. See full timetable here
