WEIGHT FOR DISTANCE
There are actually two separate events; one using a light (28lb for men and 14lb for women) the other a heavy (56lb for men and 42lb for women) weight.
The weights are made of metal and have a handle attached either directly or by means of a chain.
The implement is thrown using one hand only, but otherwise using any technique. Usually a spinning technique is employed.
The longest throw wins.
