In Sochi from February 22 to 28, 2017 at Krasnaya Polyana will take place III World winter war games.BIATHLON
Name sports discipline comes from two Latin words “twice” and “wrestling”, which is why biathlon was originally called modern winter combined event. Includes cross-country skiing and rifle shooting at multiple shooting ranges.The first race, vaguely reminiscent of biathlon, was organized by border guards on the Swedish-Norwegian border back in 1767. In the 19th century in Norway, biathlon emerged as a sport for soldiers. The ancestor of modern biathlon, the military patrol competition, was introduced at the Olympic Games in 1924, 1928, 1936 and 1948.
As part of the III Winter Military World Games, competitions will be held in the following events: sprint (7.5 km for women, 10 km for men), mixed relay(6 km for women and 7.5 km for men) and patrol race (15 km for women, 20 km for men).
Patrol Race – modern look military patrol competitions (the race that is the ancestor of biathlon). This is a race with a distance of 20 km for men and 15 km for women, with three shooting stages. Each participating country can enter two patrols (male and female).
The team consists of four athletes - biathletes and skiers. One of the team members is the patrol leader, three are patrol members, each of whom fires from a prone position and fires one shot at the center of his installation. In case of misses - penalty loops according to the number of team misses according to IBU rules.
Sprint– a type of biathlon race of 10 km for men and 7.5 km for women with two shooting ranges. Biathletes start at intervals of 30 seconds. After the first round, shooting is done from a prone position, after the second - standing. Biathletes themselves choose firing positions at the shooting range to perform shooting. For each miss there is a penalty loop of 150 m.
Mixed relay- team competition in biathlon. The team consists of four athletes (two women and two men). Each biathlete completes one stage, 6 km for women and 7.5 km for men, with two shooting ranges.
One representative from each country starts at the same time and, having completed their stage, passes the baton to the next biathlete from their team. Women complete their distances first, then men. At each stage there are two shootings: the first is lying down, the second is standing. The athlete has three spare cartridges for each shooting session. If a biathlete runs out of spare cartridges, then for each subsequent miss a penalty loop of 150 m is provided.
Currently, War Games are divided into 4 types:
- CISM World summer games(first – 1995, Rome)
