kokonaisheittojen

Kokonaisheittojen is a Finnish term that translates to "total throws" or "overall throws." It is most commonly used in the context of sports, particularly in track and field events, to refer to the sum of all throws made by an athlete or a team. This metric can be applied to various throwing disciplines such as shot put, discus throw, hammer throw, and javelin throw.

In individual competitions, the "kokonaisheittojen" might be calculated for a specific round or a series of rounds to assess an athlete's consistent performance. For instance, in a qualification round where an athlete gets multiple attempts, their total throws would be the sum of all distances achieved in those attempts. However, in most final competitions, only the best single throw counts towards the athlete's final score.

In team competitions, "kokonaisheittojen" can be a way to aggregate the performance of multiple athletes representing a team. For example, in a decathlon or heptathlon, which includes throwing events, the total throws for a particular discipline across all participants might be considered as part of a broader team analysis or scoring system, though this is less common than individual event scoring. The term is less frequently encountered in casual conversation and is primarily a technical term within the realm of sports statistics and analysis.
