Athletics at the 2002 South American Games – Results
These are the full results of the athletics competition at the 2002 South American Games also serving as the 2002 South American Junior Championships in Athletics. The event took place between August 1 and August 3, 2002, at Estádio Olímpico do Pará in Belém, Brazil.[1][2] Differences between South American Games and South American Junior ChampionshipsIn contrast to the South American Junior Championships, there is a quorum for the South American Games: participation of at least 5 athletes from at least 3 countries is required. If the quorum requirement is not met for an event, only one medal per country is awarded. The following events were affected: no bronze medal in men's 3000m steeplechase, no bronze medal in women's discus throw, and no silver medal in women's javelin throw.[3] While the Olympic Committees of Aruba and the Netherlands Antilles (until dissolution) are affiöiated to ODESUR, their corresponding athletics federations (Arubaanse Atletiek Bond and Nederlands Antilliaanse Atletiek Unie) are affiliated to the North American, Central American and Caribbean Athletic Association rather than CONSUDATLE. Their athletes compete at the South American Games, but not at the South American Junior Championships. The performances of Churandy Martina in the finals winning the gold medal in men's 100 m and the silver medal in men's 200 m were reported. Further details could not be retrieved.
