DOZENS of people are braving the hot sun in a queue outside the National Stadium, to purchase the last 1,000 tickets for the widely popular and internationally acclaimed ISSA/GraceKennedy Boys' and Girls' Championships.

'Champs' 2011 will be the 101st staging of the track and field event, which is held at the National Stadium in Kingston on a yearly basis.
