The 7th European Athletics Championships took place from September 12 to 16, 1962 in Belgrade , Yugoslavia .
Attendees
As in the previous European Championships, Germany took part with a joint team that was recruited from corresponding eliminations between the GDR and the Federal Republic of Germany . The separate listing of athletes from the two associations, as found in some overviews of results, is not correct. It was the last joint start of the two German associations DLV - Germany West - and DVfL - Germany East - at the European Athletics Championships. After the Olympic Games in 1964 , when there was an all-German team for the last time, the GDR and FR Germany each competed with their own teams.
Competitions
There were no changes in the competition program at these European Championships.
Athletic performance
The athletes from the USSR were far ahead of all other nations with thirteen gold medals in the medal ranking. Great Britain followed with five EM titles. The German athletes were four times, the Polish three times at the top of the podium.
There were no new championship records in only eight disciplines. This makes the once again high performance level very clear at these European championships.
- Three world records have been achieved:
- 400 meter hurdles : Salvatore Morale , Italy - 49.2 s (equalized)
- 400 meters : Marija Itkina , Soviet Union - 53.4 s (equalized)
- Shot put : Tamara Press , Soviet Union - 18.55 m (world record equalized)
- There were also three more new European records:
- Hammer throw : Gyula Zsivótzky , Hungary - 69.64 m
- 800 meters : Gerda Kraan , Netherlands - 2: 02.8 min
- 4 x 100 meter relay : Poland ( Teresa Ciepły , Barbara Sobotta , Elżbieta Szyroka , Maria Piątkowska ) - 44.5 s
- Two athletes won two gold medals each at these championships:
- Tamara Press (Soviet Union) - shot put, discus throw
- Teresa Ciepły (Poland) - 80 meter hurdles , 4 x 100 meter relay
- Seven of the European champions from 1962 had already won European championships:
- Vasily Kuznetsov (Soviet Union) - decathlon , third success in a row since 1954
- Marija Itkina (Soviet Union) - 400 meters, repetition of her 1958 success, also 1954 European champion over 200 meters
- Galina Bystrowa (Soviet Union) - pentathlon , repetition of her success from 1958, also European champion 1958 over 80 meter hurdles

The points table from 1952 was used for scoring.
For orientation and classification of the performances, the scores achieved in 1985 according to the current rating system are also listed for comparison. However, nothing would have changed in terms of the placements. Of course, these comparisons are only indicative, because the different standards of the time must apply as a basis.

The scoring was based on the 1955 points table.
For orientation and classification of the performances, the scores achieved for the heptathlon according to the current rating system from 1985 are listed for comparison . However, nothing would have changed in terms of the placements. Of course, these comparisons are only indicative, because the different standards of the time must apply as a basis.
