Goldie's javelin masterclass
Around the Academy:

Goldie Sayers gives you a masterclass in the javelin
Keep those eyes looking ahead Goldie

I'm Goldie Sayers and I was Britain's only female javelin thrower at the Olympics.

Watch my masterclass

It's all about controlling your acceleration and having great rhythm on the run-up.

And then transferring all this power into your throw.

The arm is pulled through and hopefully that javelin will be flying through the air.

It's a brilliant exciting event.

Check out my masterclass and have fun!
