History[edit]
NAAATT was founded in 1945 as Amateur Athletic Association (AAA) of Trinidad and Tobago,[4] and was affiliated to the IAAF in 1962.[5] However, AAA ceased to organize national championships. Therefore, starting in 1969, the National Athletes Union (NAU) started to hold national championships leading to a reformation of a National Amateur Athletic Association of Trinidad and Tobago (NAAATT) in 1971. First president was Jesse Noel. In 2009, NAAATT was finally renamed to National Association of Athletics Administrations of Trinidad and Tobago.[6]
