Belize is proud to be the host nation of the 10th annual Central American Cross Country Championship in Athletics. The event will take place on Saturday, February 20, in Roaring Creek Village in Cayo District and is being sponsored by the Central American Track and Field Organization.
Competitors from all of the countries in Central America will converge on Roaring River Golf Course in Belize for the exciting event with more than 125 runners expected to participate.
Belize has previously hosted the Central American Cross Country Championship but 2016 will mark the first time hosting the event under the leadership of a new executive. Belize hopes to make a good showing at this exciting event which is being generously sponsored by the Belizean Ministry of Sports and a number of businesses.
On Saturday, January 30, 2016, the Belize Athletics Association will hold a nationwide competition to select athletes to compete at the Championship on February 20. Any athletes interested in competing at the selection trial on January 30 should register as soon as possible by emailing belizeathleticassociation@gmail.com or making contact via Facebook.
