In the long jump, referees (often called officials) are responsible for ensuring that the competition follows the established rules and regulations. They measure the distance of each jump, assess whether the athlete has committed a foul (such as stepping over the take-off board), and ensure that the jump area is safe and properly maintained. Additionally, they keep track of the athletes' jumps and may provide assistance in determining the final results. Their role is crucial for maintaining the integrity and fairness of the event.

The long jump is where you have a long strip of sand which you run to and jump as far as you can along it whilst the high jump is where there is a pole which the athletes have to jump over and it gets raised every time each athlete has jumped. :)
