When you strip it all away, the basis of all sport comes down to running, jumping, and throwing. These are the foundational elements of all sport and make Track and Field the easiest youth sport to understand, measure, and most importantly participate in.  Boys and girls age 5 – 18, can compete in running events from 60m to 3000m.  Jumping events include long jump and high jump, throwing events include: javelin, shot-put, and discus. There is an event (or more) for everyone.  There are no subjective measures to make a team or to determine the outcome for each event.  Clocks and tape measures do not judge or lie!
USA Track and Field Arizona sanctions and conducts our meets.  Meets are professionally run using state of the art equipment. The Arizona regulation meets (regular season) take place on weekends from Late January to early May. Meets are held at schools around Arizona, primarily spread through the metro Phoenix area. There is 1 indoor meet annually at the NAU Skydome and 1 meet in the Tucson area during the regular season. The AZ association championship (otherwise known as the state championship) occurs in May. Beyond the state championship, the AZ association holds a state qualifier for the Jr. Olympics where the top 4 finishers in each event advance to the regional championships (our region contains 4 states or associations). The regional Jr. Olympic championship meet rotates between the 4 associations and qualifies the best of the best to the Jr. Olympic national championships that takes place in late July.
