About the Game

Athletics is a collection of competitive sporting events that include track and field, road running, cross country running, and race walking. It’s one of the oldest forms of organized sport, testing speed, strength, and endurance.

Basic Rules

  • Events are divided into running, jumping, and throwing categories.
  • Track events are won by the fastest time; field events are won by distance or height.
  • Athletes must follow specific rules for starting, lane usage, and technique (especially in throws).
  • Fouls can disqualify attempts β€” like stepping outside lanes or overstepping take-off lines.

Skills Needed

  • Explosive speed and stamina
  • Strength and technique in field events
  • Focus and discipline
