Also known as "Weight Over the Bar," requires athletes to attempt to toss a 56lb (4 stone) weight, with attached handle, over a horizontal bar using only one hand.

Each athlete is allowed three attempts at each height.  Successful clearance of the height allows the athlete to advance into the next round at a greater height.  The competition is determined by the highest successful toss with the fewest misses being used to break ties.
