Central American Junior and Youth Championships in Athletics

The Central American Junior and Youth Championships in Athletics (Spanish: Campeonatos Centroamericanos Juvenil A y B) is an athletics event organized by the Central American Isthmus Athletic Confederation (CADICA) (Spanish: Confederación Atlética del Istmo Centroamericano) open for athletes from member associations.

The event is divided into the Junior B Central American Championships and the Junior A Central American Championships. The Junior A category is open for girls and boys aged 18–19. The Junior B category is open for girls and boys aged 15–17. There is a report on an early Central American Junior Championship held in the year 1975 in Guatemala.[1] At least from 1997 on, it is verified that the competition is held annually. Records can be set by both Junior (U-20) and Youth (U-18) athletes who compete at the championships in their category representing one of CADICA's member federations.[2][3]
