World Masters Games
Weight Throw |
The Weight Throw is not an event officially recognised by the IAAF, although a 56lb superweight was contested in the 1904 and 1920 Olympics and is featured in the Scottish Highland games.
The men start with a weight of 15.88kg.
At age 50, the weight reduces to 11.34kg, then 9.08kg at age
60, 7.26kg at age 70 and 5.45kg at age 80. The women start
with 9.08kg, go down to 7.26kg at age 50, 5.45kg at age 60
and 4kg at age 75.
The Weight Throw was introduced as a
separate event in 2000. Prior to that, it was only
competed in as part of the throws pentathlon.

|
National codes indicate a competitor's
given country at time of competition but at the World Masters Games
this often does not indicate a competitor's real country.
Records
are not tracked and the event is not generally eligible for records due to the
general lack of compliance to IAAF/WMA standards. |
