High-Jump _______________________________video sample

The performance
The competitor will jump over a bar, thanks to a jump board (flat, 60cm high, 120cm large, 230cm long). He can try 2 times (or 3 times for the last 3 competitors) to jump over, if he does he can continue the contest. The competitor can also decide not to jump a bar of jump, waiting for the next step.

The Judgement
If the bar of jump is falling, or if the competitor is going under the bar of jump, the competitor fails the jump. If
he jumps over and lands without falling, without touching the floor with his hand, the competitor succeed.
If the competitor fails his 2 or 3 try, he is out of the competition.
Knee pads and wrist guards are recommended.
The competition starts at 1m40 for women, 1m80 for men. The height is going from 10cm to 10cm, until there’s 3 competitors left, then they choose the following height.

The Ranking
The ranking is going from the competitor reaching the highest height until the competitor reaching the lowest height. If 2 competitors are at the same height, then the number of jump they’ve done to reach this level is taken into account.

The Qualifications
There’s no qualification, each competition is an open competition organised to develop High Jump and provides its own independent results.

The IFSA Cup
