Travel Funding

Funding will be allocated to the top five (5) athletes in each event, provided first to the defending U.S. Indoor Champion in each event, and then to the top four ranked indoor performers, based on the 2006 U.S. Indoor List. If the defending U.S. Indoor Champion is not entered in the Indoor Championships by the on-time entry deadline, funding will be allocated to the top five (5) performers in each event who have entered by the on-time entry deadline. In addition to the payments as described above, funding will be provided to all athletes who were not allocated funding prior to the Indoor Championships but who placed in the top three (3) at the event.

In order to be eligible for the Indoor Championships travel allocations, an athlete must be a current USATF member in good standing; must have entered by the on-time entry deadline; must have met the qualifying standard set by USATF; and must be a citizen of the United States of America.
