The starter's password was "take your positions" and "assemble", and finally the starter's gun rang. After the "take your positions" and "assemble" passwords, the contestants should immediately complete the relevant actions, otherwise it will be a foul. If the athlete steals the race, the starter will declare the starting foul. Give a warning for the first foul. Except for all-around events, only one starting foul is allowed in each game, and athletes will not be disqualified. After that, the athlete who fouls every time will be disqualified.
In the all-around competition, if an athlete fouls twice at the start, he will be disqualified.
In addition, disturbing others with sound or action after issuing the "in place" password is also the first foul. Any starting action before the gunshot is a starting foul. If the start is caused by other reasons than equipment or athletes, all athletes should be shown green cards.
For track events over 400 meters (excluding 400 meters), a standing start is adopted. The starter's password is "take your positions". When all the contestants are ready to stand behind the starting line, they can fire their guns and start the game.
