(from USATF.org) The 2006 USA Youth Outdoor Track & Field Championships will be conducted in Greensboro, North Carolina on the campus of the North Carolina A&T State University.

Last year's competition was held in Knoxville, Tennessee and attracted over 2,000 athletes from across the country. The 2006 championships will be even more exciting for athletes, coaches, family members and spectators alike!

The USA Youth Outdoor Track & Field Championships is more than competition--it is also about having fun! Regardless of whether young athletes achieve a personal best, win a medal, or earn a shot at international competition, they will experience a first-class competition and have the opportunity to make new friends--and a lifetime of memories!

The championship event is a national competition with entry based upon qualifying standards for each event and has the same age divisions as the USATF Junior Olympic program. The USA Youth Outdoor Championships are also scored for team championships in all age divisions and is a popular competition for clubs around the country. In addition, this year's meet will serve as one of the selection pool competitions for the 2007 IAAF World Youth Championships in Ostrava, Czech Republic.

The Greensboro Convention and Visitors Bureau, North Carolina A&T State University, and the USA Track & Field North Carolina Association are proud hosts of the event.
