            facilities in athletics and in (a)(ii) candidates correctly named missile used in athletics.
            Few candidates also missed their way by writing pole vault, cards and flag as missiles in
            athletics.  In part (b) candidates also correctly state events that require the use of   measuring
            tape in athletics although, few wrongly stated relay race, tack event, field event, football and
