Definition

en

Two sports have events that fall under the name of weight throw (Scottish Gaelic: caitheamh cuideam) one being the track and field event and the other being the Scottish highland games events. The track and field event is most popular in the United States as an indoor equivalent to the hammer throw event, which can only be held outdoors. The 35 lb weight throw (men) and 20 lb weight throw (women) are not recognised by the International Association of Athletics Federations.
