The 2019 European Athletics Team Championships (ETC) in athletics were held in four cities from 9âÂÂ11 August 2019.
Grouping and host cities
Exceptionally, for this 2019 edition, the following relegation and promotion principles were used:
- The lowest 5 classified teams in the Super League shall be relegated to the First League. The first classified team of the First League shall be promoted to the Super League.
- Consequently, 5 lowest classified teams of the First League shall be relegated to the Second League, while the first classified team of the Second League shall be promoted to the First League. Consequently, 5 lowest classified teams of the Second League shall be relegated to the Third League, while the first classified team of the Third League shall be promoted to the Second League.
- The promotion/relegation system for 2019 edition is aimed at enabling the new system of distribution of teams among leagues (approved by European Athletics Council in April 2018) to come into force from 2021 edition. The new system is aimed to have 8 teams in the Super League (plus 1 if the host country not qualified), 12 teams in the First and Second Leagues, with the remaining teams in the Third League starting from 2021 edition of ETC.

Notes
- As Russia were unable to take part due to their continuing suspension by the IAAF for systematic doping violations, the Russian team was automatically disqualified, and thus relegated.
- As the city of Minsk, Belarus, has initially been chosen to host the 2021 Super League by European Athletics, their team should have been automatically promoted to that division following this competition.
