2021 World Masters Championship is virtual
26 June through 11 July
Register by 25 June
Just like last year, the Worldwide Virtual Masters Challenge will honor the WMA Championship by having a virtual competition contested following WMA competition rules as much as possible.
Are you able to compete in live competitions? Awesome! Your performances at a live competition can count in the Challenge plus are competition for those who still cannot.
Cannot compete in live competitions or get to a track? You can participate by competing anywhere you can do it safely(like a road without traffic, a field or a tennis court).
Athletes are encouraged to make this special for themselves and other athletes around the world. For some, this will be the only chance to compete at a World Championship. Bring your country’s flag, wear your national singlet, share on social media, or not, it is up to you.
This event is for all Masters Athletes (35 and over as of 26 June) who can find a safe place to compete. World Masters Athletics and MastersRankings.com are supporting this event in a multitude of ways to help ensure a great virtual championship. They and possibly other sponsors are considering giving special awards.
