Question

differentiate between throwing and weighting​

Answer 1

Answer:

Two sports have events that fall under the name of weight throw one being the track and field event and the other being the Scottish highland games events.

Weight throw, 2002 Celtic Festival.

The track and field event is most popular in the United States as an indoor equivalent to the hammer throw event, which can only be held outdoors. The 35lb weight throw (men) and 20lb weight throw (women) are not recognised by the International Association of Athletics Federations.

The Scottish Highland Games contain two weight throwing events. In the one event the weight, 28lb or 56lb, is thrown in a similar manner to a discus. In the other event, the 56lb weight gets thrown over a bar for height.

Weight throw for distance Edit

The 56-pound weight throw was conducted twice at the Olympic Games, in 1904 and in 1920.
