Field sports are those events that are not performed on a track. When you hear the term 'Track and Field', the 'track' sports are those that are performed on a track (100 meter dash, 200 meter dash, 400 meter dash, 1500 meter run, etc.). The 'field' sports are not performed on a track (high jump, long jump, shot put, pole vault, etc).

Most officials prefer that people do not wear tape unless it is worn for a medical reason.

Actually that is false. it is completely legal to wear wristtape. u cannot wear any accessories on ur wrist or fingers though. it must be wrist tape, that is the only legal thing allowed on your wrist unless there is a medical condition on other parts of ur hand such as finger brace for broken finger, or hand u dont throw with has a cast due to broken bone. So wearing wrist tape is legal. all professionals and most college throwers and most highschoolers wear it to provide support for wrists.
