3 IAAF PRESIDENT S MESSAGE I am delighted to write this message for the bulletin of the 9th edition of the IAAF World Youth Championships, Cali The IAAF World Youth Championships (15-19 July 2015) give Cali, the sports capital of Colombia, its first opportunity to impress on the international athletics stage since it hosted the 1971 edition of the Pan-American Games. There is certainly no doubt that Cali s Olímpico Pascual Guerrero Stadium will be an atmospheric setting for the championships. As well as being the track and field venue in 1971, nearby in the now defunct Stadium Galilee in the Versailles neighbourhood the first national athletics competition was held in An impressive total of 153 of the 212 IAAF Member Federations sent delegations to the last edition of the IAAF World Youth Championships in Donetsk, Ukraine in 2013, offering the prospect of a bright future for our sport. If Athletics is to remain the number one individual sport in a changing world then we must encourage and attract the youth of every generation. The IAAF World Youth Championships which began in Bydgoszcz, Poland in 1999 are a central part of our strategy to inspire kids around the world. Since that inaugural edition in Bydgoszcz, the IAAF World Youth Championships has proved to be a winner, not only with our Member Federations and young athletes but also cities who appreciate the unique qualities of the World Youth. The IAAF World Youth Championships are not just another competition but an opportunity for youngsters to gain valuable experience, improve personal bests, and to build friendships with their rivals from every corner of the world. I wish the local organising committee all the very best in its preparations for what I know will be on outstanding festival for our sport in Lamine Diack IAAF President

4 THE MOST IMPORTANT DATE FOR NATIONAL SPORTS Colombia keeps betting on sport through the support to international events of great magnitude, reflecting the commitment to the construction of a country that transform in a positive manner through sports. This year, with the IAAF World Youth Athletics Championships Cali 2015, Cali keeps consolidating as a destination with a world level, and as the cradle of the new figures in the base sport. After the successful efforts that we made last year with the World Games 2013 and the UCI Track Cycling World Championships 2014, we are ready to receive more than 180 countries and more than athletes that represent the future of orbital sports, certain that once again we will fulfill all expectations placed upon Cali and Colombia. The National Government headed by the President Juan Manuel Santos has transmitted the trust and support that he has on the city for the hosting of this event, the most important in the history of the city, which will leave as legacy the devolvement of athletics in a national level. Between July the 15th and the 19th, the city that welcomes us with open arms will once again be new center of attention for sports, and we will all be please to return to the Sports Capital of America. Andrés Botero Phillipsbourne Coldeportes Director

5 CALI HOST OF GOOD NEWS We find ourselves in a key year for sport in our city. While we prepare for the IAAF World Youth Championships Cali 2015, the whole city fills with joy and enthusiasm to once again be the host for great sports events. The people of Cali are excellent hosts and as such we have demonstrated it since 1971, year in which we organized the Pan American Games. This event left in Cali a sports culture that last to this day, which has placed us an enthusiastic city, example of infrastructure development and international leader in the organization of sports events. We will be welcoming more than athletes, their coaches, delegates and human staff that make possible that the World Youth Championships be the most important date of our base sport, with the warmth welcome that characterizes us, and the open arms of our Cristo Rey that welcomes all his own and visitants with a smile. Rodrigo Guerrero Velasco Mayor of Santiago de Cali
