You don’t need to be a star athlete to participate in track & field….you just need to have fun.
The Hershey’s Track and Field Games started over 30 years ago and continue to grow and grow. It is the largest youth sport program in the world with over 400,000 participants each year. The program is for all children ages 9 thru 14 who love to run, jump and throw. A select few will even have the opportunity to compete at the North American Final in Hershey Pennsylvania.
As a recreation department or any youth organization, you can run a local event….even if you don’t have a track. This program is designed to get kids involved….no one is excluded.
