athletic track and field sports

Something to know about ATHLETIC:

The word athlete comes from the Greek word “Athlons,” meaning a contest or competition. The first athletics event at the ancient Olympiad was the “state” race-a sprint along the fill length of the stadium (a distance of approximately 210 yd/192m).The order in which track and field events are competed at an official meet is determined by a random draw.

                                        Sport overview

Track and field consists of three type’s event. Track events (running or walking), field events (jumping or throwing), and combined events, such as the pentathlon, which are a combination of both track and field events. Track and field is at the core of the Olympic movement and was featured at the first games at Olympic at 776 BCE. The track and field events wavered during Roman times, but athletics again dominated the first modern Games.

DRUGS TESTING:

                                 The use of performance-enhancing drugs-especially in athletics-never fails to make headline news. In a constant battle to promote fair play, the international association of athlete’s federations runs a stringent doping control program to detect improper use of drugs such as anabolic steroids. In 1999, an independent foundation called the world anti-doping agency (WADA) was also set up by the international Olympic Committee.

Track and field arena:
A full size track usually measures 400 m in circumference, has six or eight lanes, and encircles a sports field that contains specific area for each field sports. most track have a synthetic rubber or polyurethane surface for year-round use. indoor track are usually only 200 m in circumference, have four or six lanes, and have barked turns to accommodate bends that are far tighter that on an outdoor track. whether competing indoor or outdoor, athletes always race around the track in an counterclockwise direction. due to spare constraints, indoor field event consist of only the jumps and shot put.

Why I think northern area need athletic sport:

POTANTATIONAL: physical and mentally strong. Weather advantages, Dedication, Freely environment for athletes.

VAST SCOPE FOR FEMALE THLETES: special ground not required because of the open minded peoples and the freely environment we have.

THE CHEAPEST GAME: no kit, no ground specify, no equipments and time consumes.

AKYSB initiate or introduce athletics in this area from 2007 by the name of JOSH GAME PAKISTAN.

Comparison with other games like Cricket and Volleyball traditional. We just spend our time with these because more than 30 year ago Cricket is just played but unfortunately not a single player is playing on club or department and district level.
