World Youth Track & Field Trials Announced

INDIANAPOLIS - USA Track & Field on Tuesday announced that it has revamped the process for selecting its team for the IAAF World Youth Athletics Championships.For the first time, the team will be selected based on performances at a Team Trials event - World Youth Track & Field Trials - which will be conducted less than two weeks before the 2009 IAAF World Youth Championships.

Since the inception of the World Youth Championships in 1999, the U.S. team has been selected by a committee, which reviewed the performances of athletes who had competed in one of three national championship events - USA Youth, USA Junior, and USATF Junior Olympics - a full year prior to the World Championships. "Our goal is to send the best possible team to the World Championships, and having a selection meet just prior to the World Championships allows USATF to do this," said USATF Youth Division Chair Lionel Leach. "As is the case with our elite athletes and their teams, our youth athletes will be able to 'select themselves' based on how they perform at a qualifying meet."

The 2009 World Youth Track & Field Trials will be held on June 30 - July 1 in Ypsilanti, Michigan, in conjunction with the first two days of the USA Youth Outdoor Track & Field Championships. The event will serve as the qualifying event for the 8th IAAF World Youth Championships to be held July 8-12 in Bressanone, Italy. For more information on the 2009 World Youth Track & Field Trials, including qualifying standards to enter the Trials and team selection criteria, please visit http://www.usatf.org/events/2009/WorldY ... ticsTrials.

Eligibility:

Must be:
- born in 1992 or 1993
- US Citizen
- 2009 USATF member

Must meet the following standards between June 24, 2008 - June 22, 2009
Boys: 4.37m
Girls: 3.40m

Must be either USATF sanctioned meet or high school meet (but not a dual or triangular meet). I am sure a college meet would count as well, they just figure not many athletes this young will be competing in college meets.

The Youth Athletics Committee Chair will adjust the standards, where necessary, 30 days prior to the competition, based on received entries at that time. Therefore, early submission of an entry close to the standard is advised.

How to qualify for the World Youth Team:

1. Place top two at this meet
2. Have jumped 4.50/3.65 between 1/1/08 and 6/22/09
3. Has a passport valid through 1/15/10 (so if you are someone thinking of doing this, get on the passport stuff early)

In addition to the order of finish at the Trials, the Selection Committee will consider injuries, conditioning and projected ability to finish in the top 8 at the 2009 IAAF World Youth Championships.
