Track & Field Meet Timing
We time track and field meets from junior high duals to the KSHSAA state championships. Every running event is fully automatic to the thousandth of a second, every field event is measured and posted as it happens, and results go live to MileSplit before the athletes are off the track. You get a crew that has done this a few hundred times, and a backup system running the whole meet in case anything on the primary side blinks.
How a meet with us goes
- 1
Book it. Send the date, site and expected size through our booking form. Braden follows up with availability and a quote, usually the same day.
- 2
Entries. Coaches enter on Kansas MileSplit. We pull entries, build heats and flights, and send the meet director seeding to approve.
- 3
Setup. The crew arrives well before the first gun, sets the finish-line cameras, the wind gauge, the field-event boards and the results tent, and runs a test heat.
- 4
Race day. We clerk, time, measure and score. Results post to MileSplit and to midwesttiming.com event by event. Team scores update live.
- 5
After. Full results PDF, team scores and any corrections, and the meet stays in our archive so coaches can find it next year.
