Subject: 2021 USATF Junior Olympic Track and Field Championships
Due to the extenuating circumstances caused by the COVID-19 pandemic throughout the country, Rule 306 Junior Olympics Program (found in 2021 USATF Competition Rules) cannot be followed in its entirety. Therefore, the Youth Division, with support, and cooperation from the Association Executive Committee and endorsement of the National Office, has decided that for the competition year 2021, local Association and Regional Championship meets will not serve to qualify youth athletes into the National Junior Olympic Track & Field Championships on July 26 – August 01, 2021 in Jacksonville, Florida.
Although there will be no advancement requirements (Association or Region), in an effort to preserve the integrity of the JOTF National Championship suggested “Guidelines of Participation” for direct entry into the 2021 USATF National Junior Olympic Championships will be provided shortly. These guidelines will be posted on-line (www.usatf.org) and on athletic.net (registration site). Athletes and coaches are encouraged to review these suggested “Guidelines for Participation” when considering entry into this National Championship.
*WAIVER* USATF Youth Division waiver for athletes to enter the Junior Olympics who may not have produced a time or mark good enough to enter the meet like other Associations in the country. The deadline to submit this form is the same as the registration deadline to enter the meet. Decisions on which waivers will be approved will happen within a couple of days after the deadline.

A decision for April meets will be happening soon.

2021 USATF Youth Indoor Championships Canceled
The 2021 USATF Youth Indoor Championships, originally scheduled for March 19-21 at the Ocean Breeze Athletic Complex in Staten Island, New York, has been canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
USATF puts the health and well-being of its athletes, officials, and administrators at the forefront of our sport. USATF New York and the LOC felt that “it would not be responsible of us to encourage youth athletes to participate in non-essential travel outside of their associations to compete.”
