The 1911 USA Indoor Track and Field Championships were organized by the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and served as the national championships in indoor track and field for the United States.

The men's championships were held at the 22nd Regiment Armory in New York City, New York, and they took place December 26. Women's championships were not officially held until 1927.[1][2]

It was the last championships to have been held in the month of December, with all future editions having been held from January through April as of 2024. As a result of this scheduling change, there was no indoor national championships in 1912. The meeting was highlighted by the two miles, which was won by George Bonhag as he began to pull away after splitting the mile in 4:36.[3]
