Read More »High Jump is a track and field athletic event in which athletes jump unaided over a four-meter long horizontal bar placed at predetermined height without dislodging it. High jump and pole vault events are together referred as "vertical jumps". The first recorded high jump events took place in Scotland in the 19th century. From that time, the techniques used in this event have gone through a series of changes. This technique was first used by the early jumpers over the 19th century. This is an introductory technique now commonly used by the young athletes as this lets them gain confidence and moreover it is user-friendly. In the scissors high jump, the athletes do a straight thirty degree angle running to the bar. Then the athlete goes over the bar by placing the leg closest leg over the bar and then followed by the other leg. The main point of the scissors technique is that the athletes land in standing position on their feet over the mats. In the eastern cut-off technique the athlete rotates the trunk into a horizontal position at the peak of a jump. The athlete lifts the pelvis part higher than the simple scissors technique. This ultimately results in a higher bar clearance. The only draw-back of this technique is that this requires tremendous flexibility for higher jump. In the western roll technique the athlete clears the bar from his / her side such that the takeoff leg is tucked under the rest of the body. This technique probably did not improve much the effectiveness of the bar clearance when compared to eastern cut-off. Moreover, it did not require very much flexibility. The only benefit of this was that it helped a larger number of athletes in clearing the bar. In this technique the athlete clears the bar with facing down and the body stretched along the bar. In straddle technique the part of the leg is lower than the bar at the peak of the jump. This allows the pelvis to rise to a greater height with improved effectiveness of the bar clearance. This is a complete new technique which first appeared in the mid -1960’s. This technique is known as the Fosbury Flop after the American High Jumper ‘Dick Fosbury’ who won the American University (National Collegiate Athletic Association-“ NCAA “) Indoor and Outdoor Championships using this technique. In 1968 Olympics held at Mexico City, Fosbury, won the gold medal in high jump event and set a record of 2.24 meters (7.34 ft.) by using this technique. Moreover, this technique became more popular among the people. In this technique Fosbury cleared the bar on his back, with his body horizontal and perpendicular to the bar. Fosbury Flop is most commonly used technique in the field of high-jump. Later on, High Jump became part of the 1896 Summer Olympics held at Athens, Greece for Men and in 1928 the women’s event was added to the Olympics held at Amsterdam.

Read More »The main objective of this sport is that, the athlete needs to jump over a crossbar that is placed over a certain height without touching it. The crossbar should not be knocked down from its position during the overall process. Since, the high jump event was added to the modern Olympics in 1896, the popularity and demand of this game grew among the various nations with the passing time. At present, the male and female athletes participate individually in the high jump events.
