INDIANAPOLIS-USA Track & Field (USATF), the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee (USOPC), and the TrackTown USA Local Organizing Committee have released an updated competition schedule for the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials-Track and Field, which will be held at Hayward Field from June 18–27, 2021. The trials will determine the United States' spot in the Tokyo Olympics.
The event will be staged over five days with national qualifying standards being set for each field sport/event. The top eight athletes in each gender qualified directly for the Games. The remaining spots will be filled by the nation's track and field teams at their discretion. An athlete can only qualify for one event, so if an athlete places high enough in another event to guarantee a spot, they will not be allowed to compete in the other event. The only exception to this would be if there were no spaces available for that particular event.
The trials will follow the same format as the 2016 games with two rounds of events on Saturday and Sunday, followed by final standings based on all scores from both rounds. Each event has its own unique qualification criteria which can be found here.
For example, to qualify for the men's 100m dash at the Olympic Trials you need to finish within the top eight fastest overall runners after two rounds of action on Saturday and Sunday. If more than eight people qualify, the remainder of the spots will be awarded through various regional competitions called "contests".

The World Junior Championship is an annual event where national junior ice hockey teams compete in a series of round-robin games before the final, which serves as the championship game. The winner of the tournament wins the gold medal while the silver medal goes to the second-place team and so on. The World Junior Championship is known as the "Junior World Championships" in Canada and the "World Junior Ice Hockey Championships" by the IIHF. The term "world junior ice hockey championships" was used for the first time in 2001 after Toronto, Ontario, became the first city to host the entire event on Canadian soil when they did so for the 2000 tournament. The word "championship" was added to the end of the title for the 2001 event but has been part of the official title since then.
Canada has won the most titles with ten while Russia has won four times. The United States has won three times while Sweden, Switzerland, and Finland have each won once.
