While the stars of professional track and field descend on Atlanta, the local stars of youth track and field will rise up for the Youth City Games.  Featuring the fastest young athletes ages 9-14 in the state of Georgia, the Youth City Games will be contested on the same elevated track as the pro’s later that day.  Sprinters will have their chance to shine in a track meet like none other.
