Broad Jump

The Athleticism test in the DRVN Fitness Test — how well a golfer moves their own body, applies force into the ground, and accelerates through space. No external load, just the golfer and the ground. Athleticism sits between strength and speed: strength gives capacity, power expresses force, athleticism shows how well the body moves itself.

Measures: acceleration, lower-body coordination, force application relative to body size. Landing is the key: both feet together, balanced, no extra steps — distance without a stable landing doesn't count.

Scoring — distance as % of body height

Score	Men / Women / Junior	Seniors
1	20%	20%
2	40%	40%
3	60%	50%
4	80%	60%
5	100%	70%

Senior distances are reduced for a targeted reduction in impact. Best clean jump is recorded.
