In Scottish Lowland and Highland Games the triple jump was known as the hop, skip and leap. Elsewhere it was known as the hop, skip and jump or the hop, step and jump.

The triple jump rules used to be such that two hops and a step were allowed, this meant the athletes could use their strongest leg for each of the three phases.
