List of USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships winners (women)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships is an annual outdoor competition in the sport of athletics organised by USA Track & Field, which serves as the national championship for the sport in the United States. The venue of the championships is decided on an annual basis and several events are hosted separately.
The AAU held a women's championship for the first time in 1923, which has since been held annually (bar 1934). The men's and women's championships have been held jointly since 1976. Following professionalisation of the sport, the running of the national championships was taken over by The Athletics Congress of the USA (TAC) from 1980. TAC rebranded as USA Track & Field (USATF) in 1993. The national championships served as the United States Olympic Trials (track and field) in 1920, 1928, 1932, and from 1992 onwards. Olympic Trials were held separately in other years, and winners at the trial event were not declared national champions.[1][2][3]
The national championships for cross country and road running are held separately from the main track and field competition.
