There is a Master's meet in Atlanta this Sunday which starts at 10 AM. I haven't been to one before so I was wondering how long they last and is there a certain order to the events.

  • The only way to know for sure for your particular meet is to contact the meet director. While I do agree that for spectators meets can be painfully slow, I personally tend to have fun even at all day meets. It all depends on what you make of it. At the last meet I went to (5-6 hours per day over two days), I socialized and met several new people. I cheered on the people I had just met. I watched many events. Spent time before and after each event warming up and cooling down, had some snacks, worked on a small knitting project I need to finish for my cousin's baby shower and read part of a book. For longer, or slow meets, if you plan on supplying yourself for a rewarding, relaxing day, you won't be bored.
