Summary
Get ready for the biggest track and field weekend in Guyana’s history—the Athletics Association of Guyana National Championships are merging junior and senior events for the first time, running June 26-28 at the National Track and Field Centre in Leonora. With 368 athletes from 14 clubs already signed up (and more expected from abroad), this isn’t just about national pride—it’s a qualifying chance for the World Under-20 Championships in September. Expect fireworks, especially in the men’s 100m, with reigning champ Emmanuel Archibald absent and stars like Malachi Austin and Arinze Chance stepping up. Senior winners walk away with $40,000, juniors get trophies and sponsor goodies. The Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport will open the event Saturday. Admission is just $1,000 for the weekend, free for kids under ten. Bring the crowd—this is track and field at its most electric.
