My school has a brand new indoor T&F facility, but I have one major question regarding the throwing ring for shot put and weight throw.
The track itself is mondo, and I don't know what the exact surface is inside of the track.
Anyhow, at both ends of the inner area are the throwing circles. The problem is that this inner surface will not allow throwers to glide or spin. So we need to build/buy a platform to alleviate this problem.
If we build this platform, does the ring itself have to have a lip, meaning being submerged a bit?
I am about to check out the rules on this situation, but am hoping some knowledgeable individuals can offer me some advice on how to deal with this dilemma.
Once again all input is greatly appreciated!
