The events were poorly organized and years later many of the competitors had no idea that they had actually competed in the Olympics. They only knew that they had competed in an international sporting event in Paris in 1900. No official records of the 1900 Olympics exist. Based primarily on 1900 sources, the sites, dates, events, competitors, and nations as well as the event results are compiled herein for all of the 1900 Olympic events, including archery, track and field, cricket, equestrian, fencing, soccer, pelota basque, waterHistory of the Early OlympicsOlympicsRecordsOlympicsRecords.796.48Mallon Bill1504059MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797204303321The 1900 Olympic Games3732835UNINA
