The Europeans form part of a busy, summer schedule for the Medway athlete who is also hoping to represent Great Britain in the World Championships in Bulgaria later on in the year.
This season has been a pivotal one for James. In early June he made his first senior appearance for Great Britain in a Grand Prix event in Slovakia, an important milestone on his journey to London 2012.
He now hopes to go on and medal at this summer's championships.
