World Athletics (formerly IAAF) maintains an official list for such performances, but only in specific outdoor and indoor events.{{Ref|1|[note 1]}} All other records shown on this list are tracked by statisticians not officially sanctioned by the world governing body. These age category records were formerly called world youth bests.
