Last updated

The USA Indoor Track and Field Championships is an annual indoor track and field competition in the sport of athletics currently organized by USA Track & Field. It serves as the national championships for the sport in the United States. The venue of the championships is decided on an annual basis and sometimes indoor combined track and field events championships were held separately.

The earliest national champions were declared by the Amateur Athletic Union starting in 1888, twelve years after the first outdoor national champions were declared in 1876. The AAU held a women's championship for the first time in 1927, which has since been held annually with exceptions. The men's and women's championships have been held jointly since 1965. Following professionalisation of the sport, the running of the national championships was taken over by The Athletics Congress of the USA (TAC) since 1980. TAC rebranded as USA Track & Field (USATF) in 1993. [1] [2]

The national championships for outdoor track and field and other sport of athletics disciplines are held separately from the indoor competition.
