What you write depends of course upon exactly what you mean! I think you mean that the school "hosts" the meeting. In other words other schools' teams travel to your school in order to compete.

Yes. The school hosts the meeting.
But the participants of the athletic meeting are the students and the faculty of that school and the folks in that town or village, not open to other schools.

I understand. I still believe that “to host” is the expression to use. In your situation, the is marking the 10th Anniversary by organizing and hosting an athletic meet for students and (the local community / local participants or some such). I hope that might be helpful to you. Unfortunately any expression is going to be rather clumsy if you try to contain it within one sentence.
