The Ligue Guadeloupéenne d'Athlétisme (LGA) is the governing body for the sport of athletics in Guadeloupe. Current president is CAIRO Élodie.

On the other hand, Guadeloupe as a French overseas department is part of the Caribbean. As an observer member of CACAC, Guadeloupe is invited to participate at the championships, and also at the CARIFTA Games.
