All Comers Track Meet

All Comers Track Meets are usually small local events, considered the grassroots of the sport of Track and field athletics. Organization of these meets can range from "professional" to almost disorganized. Some meets are so small that only a couple of people put the whole thing on. It's all based on the simple philosophy of the sport; it only takes two people to hold a race. The formal elements required are a place for the race to take place, and neutral officials to start and judge the finish of a race. Multiply that by dozens to hundreds of participants participating over the spectrum of Track and Field events and you have a meet.
