World Schools Cross Country Championship

The World Schools Cross Country Championship is a biennial cross country competition initiated in 1975 by the International School Sport Federation (ISF). The first two editions of the event (1975, 1976) were exclusively for boys, but every competition since then has included girls.[1] The competition usually takes place in the beginning of April and lasts for one week.[2][3]
