Athletes compete in the long jump, javelin throw, and pole vault.

Jumping and throwing are the competitions in field events. Who can jump longer or higher has always been a favorite competition for young people.

In the days when there were few bridges, travelers used poles to “vault” across streams. Today, pole-vaulters compete to see who can go the highest.

Ancient athletes took pride in throwing the discus well. Javelin throwing was also important because it was how soldiers trained to use spears.

The shot put came from throwing cannonballs (shot) for fun in military camps.
