    The World Athletics Day was first celebrated in 1996. This event was introduced by then-president of International Amateur Athletic Federation (IAAF) Primo Nebiolo.

From the winners of the event, two boys and girls were drawn from each of continental areas (Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania, South America, North Central America and the Caribbean) and they were invited by international Federation to attend the Atlanta Olympics. These practices were continued in successive years. Lucky winners of World Athletics Day were invited to attend IAAF world championships in Athens (1997), Seville(1999) and the World cup in Athletics(Johannesburg 1998). In the year 2006 participants for the event were between the age  of 7 to 15 years but later on, the age gap was changed to 13 to 17 years.
