The time keeper stands at the finish line and times the run from the moment that the runner contacts the ground on the first stride to the moment when the runner's torso crosses the line. The athlete stands on the shot stopboard, facing away from the landing area, with their feet a comfortable distance apart. The shot is held cupped in both hands. The athlete crouches, lowering the shot between the legs, then drives upwards to cast the shot back over the head. There is no penalty for following through, but the athlete must land feet first and remain upright.
Measurement is taken from the inside of the stopboard to the nearest point of contact.
Shot weight as per the BAF age group. Please watch the safety aspect. Quadrathlon Tables Points are allocated from the Quadrathlon tables depending on the distance or time achieved. Scores should be compared with the athlete's previous scores to determine the level of improvement. Competition can be based on the improvement from the previous test for each event.
