How many attempts do I get in field events?

• Throws, long jump and triple jump: you are guaranteed 3 attempts. If there are 8 or more competitors in your age group, the top 8 performers receive 3 additional attempts (6 in total). If there are fewer than 8 competitors in your age group, everyone receives 6 attempts.
• High jump and pole vault: the 3-or-6 attempts rule does not apply. You continue jumping until you record three consecutive misses.
