Opening Ceremony

Athletes, coaches, and officials are invited to participate in the 2009 USATF National Junior Olympic Track & Field Championships Opening Ceremony on Wednesday, July 29 at 6:45 p.m. at Irwin Belk. We encourage all teams to represent their region and team by wearing their team attire and carrying the team banner. All teams and their regional coordinators will assemble on the Northeast side of the track near the clerking area. From this location, the athletes will parade around the track and then be guided to their seats for the ceremony.
