Marking Techniques of Track and Field

Author: Gurmeet Singh

In all countries, physical culture and sports are becoming increasingly important. Sports facilities that comply with international norms and are constructed on the basis of the most recent results of studies and research in the field of physical education are essential for proper sports practice. This book is designed to aid physical education professionals, coaches, and administrators in their attempts to build sports facilities.

Track and field athletics facilities are typically utilized for everyday training as well as hosting regional or local contests. Higher-level events usually necessitate more extensive requirements for the sporting facility, notably in terms of infrastructure.

Athletics fields are permanently set out and marked with the help of expert surveyors using specialized, expensive equipment for State, National, and International competition. This is to ensure that the lengths of running tracks, throwing event sectors, and other such measurements are as precise as modern technology allows.
