Founded in 1980, MAC is the regional association of USA Track and Field (“USATF”), and sanctions track and field events throughout New York City and the metropolitan area year-round. With current support from the New York City Council, MAC serves approximately 5,500 individual members as well as clubs at the Youth, Open and Masters levels of competition.
