The 1918 USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships were organized by the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and served as the national championships in outdoor track and field for the United States.

The men's edition was held at Great Lakes Naval Station in Great Lakes, Illinois, and it took place 21 September. The first women's championships were not held until 1923.

At the championships, there were a record 400 competitors, but most of them had already enlisted in World War I and many did not continue competing after the war.
