Select four of the following events (at least one to be chosen from each group) and show an improvement in your performance by undertaking two tests at an interval of not less than three months:
Running: 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m or 1500m.
Jumping: High, long.
Throwing: Cricket ball, discus, weight.
Whatever your standard at the first test, the minimum standard required after the three month period must be:
Running
100m 15 seconds
200m 34 seconds
400m 81 seconds
800m 3 minutes 9 seconds
1500m 5 minutes 56 seconds
Jumping
High 112cm
Long 3.8m
Throwing
Cricket ball 46m
Discus (small) 17m
Weight (8pound 13 ounce shot) 7.5m
You must show genuine improvement in all four events. The aim is that this would be achieved after practise requiring effort on your part. The examiner may make allowance for adverse weather or track conditions on the day of the event.
