Deadline for 2021, 2022 WMA world meet bidders is Sept. 1, 2017

World Masters Athletics is calling for bidders to host the 2021 indoor and 2022 outdoor world championships. The deadline is fast approaching: Sept. 1, 2017. So if any American sites have any interest, it’s time to boogie. If an indoor meet requires multiple venues, the best are in the Boston and New York areas. Maybe Landover has a nearby arena in Maryland. Winning outdoor worlds is a long shot for the United States, since Toronto is hosting 2020. But why not Oregon’s Hayward Field for 2022 — a year after IAAF Eugene worlds? Even the Eurovets would love that! (Both meets will be awarded at 2018 Malaga worlds.) Bid guidelines are here. (Says expect a budget of as much as $450,000.) For more info, write WMA Secretary María Alfaro at wmasec16@gmail.com.
