2004 African Championships #FFCD57 Brazzaville, Republic of Congo CGO 14–18 July Stade Alphonse Massemba-Débat 44 2002 Tunis / Radès 2006 Bambous The 14th African Championships in Athletics were held in Brazzaville, Republic of Congo in July, 2004. Since African Championships is a biennial event, this edition was contested only a month before 2004 Summer Olympics. Thus some top athletes shunned the event. On the other hand, many athletes use the competition to prepare for the Olympics.
