my daughter does javlin and she is 13. Her highest is 18m. in her class through the scoring ranks are
bronze - 8m
Silver - 12m
Gold - 16m
200 feet is my average, but im 13
As a javelin throw myself I would have to say that an average is 500 feet for a 17 year old girl.
Mid twenties is the average distance. Around 25 or so.
Most girl will put the shot(throw the shotput) in the teens of feet.10-22 feet is average.
If you throw javelin fairly far, and you are a girl on top of that, you are very likely to be recruited for college. The likelihood of achieving a full scholarship, however, for just javelin, is unlikely. I consistently threw in the high 120s in high school, and was recruited by many colleges. I ended up with a 3/4 scholarship to a very prestigious NCAA Division 1 school, but I think the fact that I knew how to throw discus and shot put also helped. If you are a girl and throw javelin, there's a high chance you'll get recruited. There aren't many states that throw javelin in high school, so the pool of colleges is rather large compared to the number of elite high school javelin throwers. My advice to you is to stick with it and focus on becoming better every day. Also, be open to all of the colleges recruiting you and build good relationships with each no matter what division they are. Some D3 programs are better than some at the D1 level and sometimes they can offer more "financial aid." Good luck! --Fellow Javelin Thrower
It depends, if you are still in middle school and throwing the 600 gram, the top prospects throw roughly 50 meters, but if you're in high school and throwing the 800 gram at 14, then probably around 45 meters would be good. If you want to be recruited you need to throw 180 feet minimum, but 60 meters or 200 feet if you want to make it big. I was one of the top u14 throwers in the country by throwing 50 meters, but a good thrower would throw 35-40 at 14 years old. Usually, there are 1 or 2 kids in high school that throw 70 meters, but 60 meters will get you basically anywhere.
10 to 12 min.
distance"Mid twenties
I am above average but I am a sophomore going into junior year throwing 37 feet. But I think average is mid 20s. but if you are looking to get into this in college for a scholarship , you need to throw 42 ft. good luck
well that depends. anywhere from 80 feet to 95 feet is great any higher than that and yo should have a record id say. ACTUALLY, IT IS TRUE THAT 80-95 IS "GREAT" BUT THE QUESTION WAS ABOUT THE AVERAGE. THE AVERAGE JR HIGH SCHOOL GIRL THROWS THE 1 KG DISCUS (STANDARD SIZE FOR TRACK MEETS) 45-58 FEET. THE AVERAGE HIGH SCHOOL GIRL THROWS 55-66 FEET. I HAVE COACHED DISCUS FOR MANY YEARS, AND AN 80 FOOT THROW IS ALMOST ALWAYS TOP 3 OF 25 COMPETITORS. 95 WOULD ALMOST ALWAYS WIN -- AT THE VARSITY LEVEL.
Well I'm 13 right now and My personal best was 9.64 m so on average you should be able to throw around 7-8 meters
11.36 is a decent throw if you're very new to the event. With coaching and competition, the throw can increase dramatically. If you go to http://www.usatf.org/groups/Youth/ you'll see links along the left for things like finding a club in your area to join for coaching and meeting other throwers with common interests. You'll also see meet results and records out there. Remember, the javelin is a complex event, and much improvement can be made over time with hard work and positive attitude.
Their is no diffrence. It all depends on strength. If the female tranes hard they may potentialy be able to out throw the male. This is still the same if the male traines harder than the female. Gender has no relative affect on the strength ability of a male or a female. It is understood that males will usualy be stronger than a female but i can assure you tht their is an unknown distance between a girls throw or a boys throw. Weather conditions can affect the ability of ones throwing distance.
