Qualifying Guidelines for 2014 U.S. Junior Championships

All qualifying performances for running events may be made on an indoor or outdoor track for the outdoor championships. There are no allowances for altitude, nor for indoor facilities of differing size, banking or other configuration.
Qualifying marks must be made in accordance with USATF Rule 149 and verifiable in one of the following:
USATF or IAAF sanctioned events which prescribe to or exceed USATF competition rules
Events at college meets which prescribe to or exceed USATF competition rules.
High school meets, but not dual or triangular meets, which prescribe to or exceed USATF competition rules.
Meets or events which meet a minimum for competitiveness as set by the Chair of the Sport Committee and determined to be valid by the USATF National Office staff member responsible for verification.
This is an annual Championship which requires qualification within a specific period of time. Qualifying marks from outdoor competitions must be attained on or after Thursday, June 19, 2013 through Sunday, June 22, 2014. Qualifying marks from indoor competitions must be attained within the same time period.
