part of the parent discipline of sociology, which is the study of human behavior and
social interactions within particular contexts.
Socio-economic Background Related to Athletic:
An individual socio-economic status may influence his opportunity for
participation desire to excel, choice of activity and success. The home environments
often influence his motivation to succeed in sports and the degree which success I his
Endeavour leads to inner satisfaction.
Socio-economic condition of the family may play an important role in
deciding the interests of adolescents. Adolescents belonging to lower socio-economic
conditions remain busy in the work.
Track and field
A typical track and field stadium with an oval running track and a grassy inner
field. Track and field competitions emerged in the late 19th century and were typically
contested between athletes who were representing rival educational institutions,
military organizations and sports clubs. Participating athletes may compete in one or
more events, according to their specialties. Men and women compete separately.
Track and field comes in both indoor and outdoor formats, with most indoor
competitions occurring in winter, while outdoor events are mostly held in summer.
The sport is defined by the venue in which the competitions are held – the track and
field stadium.
A variety of running events are held on the track which fall into three broad
distance categories: sprints, middle-distance, and long-distance track events. Relay
races feature teams comprising four runners each, who must pass a baton to their
team-mate after a specified distance with the aim of being the first team to finish.
Hurdling events and the steeplechase are a variation upon the flat running theme in
that athletes must clear obstacles on the track during the race. The field events come
in two types – jumping and throwing competitions. In throwing events, athletes are
measured by how far they hurl an implement, with the common events being the shot
put, discus, javelin, and hammer throw. There are four common jumping events: the
long jump and triple jump are contests measuring the horizontal distance an athlete
can jump, while the high jump and pole vault are decided on the height achieved.
Combined events, which include the decathlon (typically competed by men) and
heptathlon (typically competed by women), are competitions where athletes compete
in a number of different track and field events, with each performance going toward a
final points tally.
The most prestigious track and field contests occur within athletics
championships and athletics programs at multi-sport events. The Olympic athletics
competition and World Championships in Athletics, and the Paralympics athletics
competition and IPC World Championships in Athletics, are the highest and most
prestigious levels of competition in track and field. Track and field events have
become the most prominent part of major athletics championships and many famous
athletes within the sport of athletics come from this discipline. Discrete track and field
competitions are found at national championships-level and also at annual,
invitational track and field meets. Meetings range from elite competitions – such as
those in the IAAF Diamond League series – to basic all comers’ track meets,
inter-sports club meetings and schools events, which form the grassroots of track and
field.
