The European Throwing Cup (Until 2015 European Cup Winter Throwing) is an annual continental athletics competition for athletes specialising in the events of discus, javelin and hammer throwing and the shot put. The winter event, organised every March by the European Athletics Association, is intended as a counterbalance to the fact that indoor track and field meetings cannot host the longer throwing events. It allows athletes who specialise in throwing events to gauge their form for the forthcoming outdoor athletics season.[1]
The event was first held in Nice, France, in 2001 as the European Winter Throwing Challenge.[2] It was renamed as a European Cup event in 2005 when it was held in Mersin, Turkey.[3]
