Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Canadian Track and Field Association : The first national track and field championship meet was held in Montreal on 27 September, 1884, by the newly formed Amateur Athletic Association of Canada (A.A.A. of C.) National Championship meets were held each year thereafter, except during the war years 1915-1918, 1940-1945, by the A.A.A. of C. and its successor organization, the Amateur Athletic Union of Canada (A.A.U. of C.). The administration and control of track and field events in Canada was exercised by the A.A.U. of C. through its various branches, until the Canadian Track and Field Association was established as an autonomous body in 1968.

The Canadian Track and Field Association seeks to promote and develop the widest participation and the highest proficiency among its members. To fulfill its objective the association arranges courses of instruction for coaches, athletes and officials. It promotes and arranges meets and championships. It establishes and enforces rules and regulations, covering all association members and approves the entry of members in international competition.
