The second has the athlete spin in the circle (like the discus) before releasing the shot. There are two common throwing techniques: The first has the athlete slide or "glide" from the back to the front of the circle before releasing the shot. The athlete holds the shot close to his/her neck in one hand. The athlete cannot touch the top of the toe board or step over it during the throw. The front of the circle has a metal board called a toe board. The shot is thrown from a concrete circle that is 7 feet in diameter. This sport actually started with a cannonball throwing competition in the Middle Ages. The women's college and Olympic shot weighs 4 kilograms (8.8 pounds). The men's college and Olympic shot weighs 16 pounds. In the shot put event athletes throw a metal ball. The athlete that throws it furthest (and within the legal area) wins. The athlete cannot go over the line until the javelin lands which means the athlete needs to leave some extra space to slow down and have really good balance at the end of the throw. When throwing the javelin, the athlete jogs down a runway to gain momentum and then must throw the javelin prior to crossing a line. 3) They cannot turn their back to the target when throwing (this means they can't spin).2) Throw the javelin overhand (we're not sure underhand would work too well anyway).1) Hold the javelin by its grip and nowhere else.The javelin must be thrown a specific way for it to be a legal throw. The women's college and Olympic javelin weighs 600 grams (21 ounces) and is about 7 feet long. The men's college and Olympic javelin weighs 800 grams (28.2 ounces) and is about 8.5 feet long. This event should be supervised at all levels to be sure no one is hurt. The athlete that throws it furthest from the front part of the circle (and within the legal area) wins. The athlete will spin around to gain momentum and speed and then release the discus in the proper direction. The athlete's feet can't leave the circle before the discus lands or the athlete will fault and the throw won't count. The discus is thrown from a concrete circle that is about 8 feet in diameter. The women's college and Olympic discus weighs 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds). The men's college and Olympic discus weighs 2 kilograms (4.4 pounds). In the discus event the athlete throws a round disc, typically made of plastic with a metal rim. There are four major throwing events outlined below. Track and field is the place where you can throw stuff for distance as a real sport. It's always fun to see who can throw something the furthest, whether it's a ball, a Frisbee, or even a rock.
