The judo calendar continues its resumption with the European Championships in Prague on 19-21 November.
Organised by the European Judo Union, the competition was originally due to take place in May but postponed twice as a result of the coronavirus crisis.
The event has been held every year since 1957 with the Czech capital previously hosting it in 1991.
Rio 2016 gold medallists Lukas Krpalek and Fabio Basile are among the headliners along with multiple world champions Daria Bilodid and Clarisse Agbegnenou.
Ahead of the official draw taking place on 18 November, around 400 athletes from over 40 nations have registered for the championships.
Due to increasing Covid cases across Europe and in the host country, the British Judo Association decided to withdraw its delegation.
The European Mixed Team Championships - originally scheduled for 28 November in Bucharest, Romania - have been postponed.
