So if anyone can tell me how to get in the youth olympics what you have to do or anything please tell me! thank you!

You can check with US Track and Field.  They have a Youth Athlete's Division - here's the website:

I think you have to be a member to compete - around $20 a year for under 18 yrs old.

Even if you don't join, glad to hear you enjoy Track and Field - so keep on keepin' on!
