A sheet for every event
After your first print, open Track and field words in bubble letters. Sprints, Hurdles, Relay Race, Middle / Distance, Long / Distance, Mile Run and Steeplechase are run on the track. The regular jumps are High Jump, Long Jump, Triple Jump and Pole Vault; the most common throws are Shot Put, Discus, Javelin and Hammer / Throw.
A meet schedule and the start line
Track / Events, Field / Events and Combined / Events head the three columns of a meet schedule, with Pentathlon, Heptathlon and Decathlon under the third. In a sprint the starter gives two commands, On Your / Marks and Set. False Start, Photo Finish and Baton fill a rules poster; Track Team and Track Meet top a notice board.
- Set prints nearly four times as tall as Steeplechase.
- Only Fredoka keeps Track and Field its size when Team or Club goes on a third line; the other two fonts shrink all three lines.
- A banner at One letter per page, under More options, takes thirteen upright sheets.
Questions and answers
How do you draw track and field in bubble letters?
Pencil Track on the top line and the words and Field under it, with wide gaps. Round every stroke into a fat outline, leave a ring in each a, d and e, and keep the two capitals, T and F, the same height.
Why is it called track and field?
The name, used in North America, comes from where the sport takes place: a running track, and a grass field for the throws and some of the jumps. Outside the United States the word athletics can mean the same events.
How many events are in a decathlon?
Ten. A heptathlon has seven events and a pentathlon five. All three are combined events, in which one athlete takes part in both track and field events.
