THE CNMI National
Track and Field Championships has been moved from May 5 to May 4 at the
Oleai Sports Complex track and field facility.
Northern Marianas Athletics secretary general Robin Sapong said the registration
will start at 3:30 p.m., while races will begin at 4 p.m.
The national championships are open for all interested athletes.
Sapong added that student-athletes in the junior high and high school
divisions who have yet to join the qualifying trials for the 2007 McDonalds
All Schools Track and Field Championships have until Friday to participate
in the qualifiers and gain slots in the annual meet.
The McDonalds All School trackfest is set for May 12 with competitions
in the elementary, junior high and high school divisions.
The top three schools will receive trophies, while the top finishers in
throwing, running and jumping events will get medals.
The top three schools will be determined via a point system. NMA will
award points to student-athletes depending on how they finish in the race.
