D'après Jean-Paul Baert, Entraîneur national, le terme «bac d'appel» est d'usage international. Toutefois, le terme «butoir» est plus couramment employé par les experts en athlétisme comme synonyme de «bac d'appel», bien qu'au sens propre, le terme «butoir» signifie «la planche à l'arrière du bac d'appel». 6, record 1, French, - butoir

Plantation en trous [...] Elle est valable pour tous les terrains. Son gros avantage est d'ameublir un volume du sol supérieur au volume de l'enracinement. Les trous sont préparés à l'avance si on a le temps. [...] Il faut veiller à disposer les racines dans une position naturelle, les couvrir en premier lieu de la terre végétale et bien tasser au fur et à mesure du remplissage du trou. L'outil habituel est la bêche. 1, record 2, French, - plantation%20en%20trous
