The four standard throwing events — shot put, discus, hammer, and javelin — all involve the use of implements of various weights and shapes that are hurled for distance. In all throwing events, the object being thrown must land in a specified landing area. White lines 5cm wide delineate the area.
Track and field jumping events consist of four events: high jump, long jump, pole vault and triple jump.
Track and field facilities are usually designed as multi-purpose facilities (tracks with playing fields inside).
