In the Youth Games arena, the final competition for the long jump was about to begin.
There were twelve athletes participating in the final. They would all be judged under different rules than for the qualifying game. In the qualifying game, each athlete only had three attempts; in the final, athletes began with three attempts. From there, the four with the lowest scores would be eliminated. Then, the remaining eight long jumpers would have another three attempts to compete for medals. These were the rules generally adhered to in the Olympics.
For those with true ability, six attempts was more than enough to prove how good they were.
"I assume that once you jump over 7 meters, you will be in the top eight. Calm down and take your time; your goal is to play it safe. Go get a guaranteed score in your first attempt. That's it," Dai Li instructed.
