SANDBAG STEEPLECHASE- 60 SECOND TIME LIMIT Athletes will carry two sandbags one at a time across a 15m course. Both bags will start on the ground behind the start line. At the half way point athlete must load the bag over a yoke implement, retrive it on the other side and carry it to the end where the bag needs to be loaded fully onto a platform. They must then come back for the second bag and repeat. Fastest to load both bags onto the platform wins

Athlete must begin with hands off the bags untill the start command is given Athelte must carry one sandbag at a time Athlete can go under or around the yoke once the bag has been loaded over Bag must be fully loaded onto platform with hands off for the timer to stop

SCORING Each successful load counts as "1 rep" meaning every time the bag is loaded over the yoke or on the platform you will score 1 rep. if event is completed with both loaded onto the platform you will score 4 reps and recive a time for when the final rep was completed. If athlete manages ot get load the 1st bag onto the platform and with the second bag gets it over the yoke but not to the platfrom the athlete will score 3 reps and be given a time for when the bag was loaded over the yoke.

SCORING EXAMPLE Athlete A (1st place)- finshes the event loading both bags onto platform in 38 seconds= 4 reps in 38 seconds Athlete B (2nd place)- loads bag 1 onto platform, gets bag 2 over the yoke but doesnt load onto the platform in time= 3 reps in 50 seconds (time taken from when last successfull rep was completed) Athlete C (3rd place)- loads bag 1 over yoke in 10 seconds but unable to go any further= 1 rep in 10 seconds
