Biathlon Junior World Championships
Biathlon Junior World Championships were first held in 1967 for men and in 1984 for women. The first venue was Altenberg (then East Germany). The age limit of the participating athletes is 20 years. On 24 June 2009 it was decided that Nove Mesto na Moravě (Czech Republic), Lahti (Finland) and Obertilliach (Austria), are the venues for the World Junior Championships in 2011, 2012 and 2013.
