World Athletics has announced new dates for the World Under-20 Championships which were to be held in Nairobi last month but postponed due to Covid-19.
The event will be held on August 17 to 22, 2021 in Nairobi, which means we must move with speed to ensure adequate preparations and avoid last-minute rush. We have witnessed cases before – like the 2010 Africa Senior Athletics Championships held at Nyayo Stadium – where preparations almost run behind schedule.
