Dating back to the
mid-1960's, the USATF Junior Olympic program is the most visible youth athlete
developmental program in the world. Nearly 70,000 youth athletes compete each
year in the Junior Olympic Track & Field and Cross Country programs. Many
of America's Olympians began as youth athletes, including stars such as Maurice
Greene, Allyson Felix, Bryan Clay, John Godina, Deena Kastor, and Allen
Johnson.
Through a series of professional events consisting of
preliminary, Association, and Regional meets, athletes have the opportunity to
advance to the National Championships in track & field and cross country.
Once USATF members, participants can enter the Junior Olympics
either as part of a USATF club or as
"unattached." Competition takes place in six (6) 2-year age divisions,
from 8 & under through 17-18.
