A competition of more than four heights

Places after the last jump

- Heights in feet and inches? A heading is plain text, so type 4-10 or 5-0 over it.
Questions and answers
How is a tie broken in the high jump?
By countback. Fewer attempts at the last height cleared places a jumper higher. If those are equal, fewer misses up to and including that height does. Still equal, the jumpers share the place, and a tie for first can go to a jump-off.
How many attempts do you get in the high jump?
Up to three at a height: three misses in a row, at one height or across several, end a jumper's competition. A jumper may start at any announced height and may pass one, even after a miss there, but cannot return to a passed height.
Does a pole vault use the same score sheet?
Yes. Under the World Athletics rules the two vertical jumps share the marks, the three misses in a row and the countback. Only the heights differ. The printed title reads High Jump, so write Pole Vault over it.
Can I print a blank high jump score sheet?
Yes. Print blank sheet prints the numbered lines and your headings with every box empty. For a file in place of paper, choose Save as PDF in the print window.
