  1. A backline will be drawn the appropriate distance from and parallel to the trig.<\/li>\n
  2. Sidelines are defined by either drawn or imaginary lines from the edges of the trig to the backline.<\/li>\n
  3. Both the backline and sidelines are considered to be in the ‘fair’ part of the throwing area.<\/li>\n
  4. The competitor will complete the throw under control as decided by the judge or the throw will be ruled a foul.<\/li>\n
  5. Each competitor will be allowed three throws in the competition, the farthest of which will count for that event.
    \n<\/strong><\/li>\n
  6. The competitor may stop during the throw and re-start the throw as long as no foul has occurred. The competitor may even leave the throwing area before re-starting if allowed by the judge.<\/li>\n
  7. Each throw will be measured from a point on the inside-upper edge of the trig closest to where the competitor’s plant foot (left foot for a right-handed competitor) landed to the nearest break in the ground made by the implement (not including the handle).<\/li>\n
  8. Ties will be broken by comparing the next farthest throw for each competitor involved in the tie. The competitor with the farthest of these throws will place highest. If other ties occur, then this process will repeat for all attempts taken.<\/li>\n
  9. A throw will be a foul if the competitor touches the ground as defined in Figure 1 or any surface of the trig other than the edge facing the throwing area. One of the competitor’s feet must always remain in the throwing area either on the ground or in space directly above the throwing area.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
