Niagara Youth and Developing Athlete Fund

2009_striders_developement.jpgOver the past several years, track & field, road running, cross country, and race walking have experienced substantial increases in popularity and participation. USATF Niagara created our Youth and Developing Athlete Fund to provide support for the growing number of youth groups and emerging elite athletes who focus on excellence in track & field, road running, cross country, and race walking.

Making a Difference

The Niagara Youth and Developing Athlete Fund provides a means to attract, guide, and distribute funds to new and innovative track & field, road running, cross country, and race walking programs across Western New York, with an emphasis on providing opportunities for youth and emerging athletes. The Fund depends upon donations from the membership of USATF Niagara Association and generous fans of track & field, road running, cross country, and race walking.

Through our Youth Club Grants, we assist youth clubs in their development of tomorrow’s stars in athletics.  Through our Elite Athlete Development Grants, we assist dedicated Olympic and US Team hopefuls with their ultimate dream of competing in the Olympic Games or on the international stage.
