Neither Morocco, Algeria nor Qatar—all regional powers in the sport—sent a team to the meeting, which impacted the overall quality of performances.Pan Arab Junior Championships. GBR Athletics.

A minority of track finals had times recorded only to a tenth of a second due to technical restrictions. The foremost athletes to emerge from the competition were among the Saudi contingent. Mubarak Ata Mubarak added an Asian senior title to his 110 metres hurdles gold that same year.
