Prepare
Use the same warm-up, shoes and safe non-slip surface whenever possible.
DRY TEST · ATHLETE OVERVIEW
Jump far. Land safely. Record every attempt.
After practice, you will make three two-foot jumps from a fixed line. Your coach measures the best valid landing distance and keeps all attempts.Jump
Start behind the line, take off from two feet and land on two feet under control.
Score
Your nearest landing contact is measured. A fall or step backward makes the attempt invalid and it is recorded.
WHAT YOUR RESULT MEANS
Distance is a field score—not a label.
Growth, skill, body size, surface and familiarity affect jump distance. Coaches compare like-for-like results over time rather than using one universal pass/fail number.A broad jump is not a swim start.
It can describe horizontal jump performance, but it does not directly measure force, rate of force development or your complete block-start performance.
