usually for a shot put event, you will need at least 1 official and 2 other people. The official will usually be the person calling the names, watching the throw for any fouls, and recording the distances. The 2 other individuals will be used in the following way:

  • 1 will be used to hold the measuring tape at the circle. Which is then measured from the back of the toe board
  • the other will be used to pull the measuring tape out to the location the shot put landed.

sometimes the event will be done by only 2 people. The person recording the distance and calling names will also hold the measuring tape at the back of the toe board and then record the distance.
