The primary purpose of Infobox Athletics Championships is to provide a simple summary of the details of an edition of an athletics championships or athletics competition at a multi-sport/Games event. It can also be used to describe meetings or instances of high-level athletics meetings, for example World Athletics Continental Tour or Diamond League competitions.

It also serves as a quick navigation link between the preceding and subsequent versions of the same athletics competition. It is relatively versatile in that it demonstrates and supports the inclusion of relevant images and icons, as well as allowing you to adjust the infobox colour to give a certain theme to a related set of articles.
