Before the seniors, it’s time for the juniors to take charge as India has announced their 43 athletes across multiple events. The event is scheduled to take place at the Estadio Atletico de la Videna in Lima,Peru from August 27 to 31. This stage, which witnessed Neeraj Chopra setting a U20 world record in the javelin throw in 2016, will once again host several top-notch Indian athletes, and we can expect a few to create history. Let’s take a look at the whole list before diving into how India performed last year and what we can expect this time.

India at U20 World Athletics Championships
If we look back at the past few years, in the 2022 U20 World Athletics Championships, India ended joint-25th with Nigeria and Ecuador, where they claimed three medals—two silvers and one bronze. In the 2023 U20 World Athletics Championships in Cali, Colombia, India had a fair share of success, with Shaili Singh winning a silver medal in the women’s long jump and Amit Kumar securing a silver medal in the men’s 10 km race walk. Also, the mixed 4x400m relay team surprisingly achieved success by earning a bronze medal. It will be interesting to see how things go for them this time.
