While it was true that combative sports were a big part of Claw Coliseum, there were also several other sports that were part of its events, mainly track and field. Many of them had to deal with peepers, but there was still plenty to do.

Luke and Marjorie watched as several Animalians practiced with discus, shot-put, javelin, and hammer throw. In many cases, these were a lot larger than was normally used to compensate for the greater strength.
"Hey there," said one coach, coming over to them, "You two ever think about taking part? Your 50-foot scooter chuck is generating more than a million views in media."
"Sure, why not." replied Marjorie, picking up a nearby shot-put and getting into position to throw it. Although she didn't know why there was a brief air-raid-style siren going off before she threw it, it was made clearer afterward.
"The last time someone used a shot-put, it nearly killed a peeping tom in the bushes." Said the coach after her throw, "Sometimes I wonder why the ancient Greeks had such an event, but now I know that with the proper training and equipment, throwing a shot-put can really kill someone."

Gymnastics is sometimes defined as "a series of exercises that develop and demonstrate strength, balance, and agility", while others describe it as "somersaults, hoopdihoops, and tippy-toes", but with the introduction of Animalia, and Animalians participating in Gymnastics in particular, Gymnastics became a good deal more popular. Though most female Animalians knew that a lot of the male attention was on their curves and uniforms rather than their performance, but with the invention of "Mister Gym Bag", there was significantly less lewd actions and catcalls.
The "Mister Gym Bag" concept began with a peeper that was caught replying, without really thinking about what he was saying, "I'm a gym bag.", as his excuse for being at a female Animalians' practice session. After that, Mister Gym Bag had to do various things, such as keep water bottles filled, etc., for one week during practice sessions. While originally intended as a punishment, many guys tended to end up as Mister Gym Bag, but there were measures in place to make sure that there was no underwear theft, for example. One of the funniest things (for the Gymnastics practitioners anyway) was to pile up the used towels onto Mister Gym Bag at the end of practice, much to the chagrin of the current Mister Gym Bag.
"Alright, Yuki and Sora, it's your turn on the balance beam." said the coach, "And make sure your predator claws don't damage it this time." Yuki and Sora winced at this, the coach having to have not forgotten what they did at their first practice.

While the protective gear for many sports were already delivered, the other parts were still in R&D. It was getting rather hard to find sports gear that could withstand the greater strength and/or sharp claws of Animalians. Though having hands "big enough to hold basketballs and strong enough to burst them" was seemingly good for "foreplay", according many posts on the Animalia Singles Website. Another example was seemingly how Major League Baseball Bats weren't lasting long in many Animalians' hands, whether wood or metal.
