Shot Put

Shot Put

Shot put is a strength-based discipline within athletics where technique, explosiveness, and proper execution come together. To practice this discipline safely and optimally, it is important that the sports facility is equipped with high-quality and durable provisions. SKOR delivers complete solutions for shot put, tailored for professional use. Read on and discover what we can do for you.

What is Shot Put?

In shot put, an athlete attempts to throw a heavy shot as far as possible from a circular ring. This requires not only proper technique but also a well-designed throwing circle and a safe environment. The throwing circle must have a smooth, non-slip surface and be clearly demarcated by a white toe board. It is important that all shot put materials are resistant to intensive use and varying weather conditions.

SKOR's Range of Shot Put Equipment

SKOR offers all essential components for a complete shot put setup:

• Shot Put Circles: robust steel rings with a diameter of 213.5 cm, available in two heights: 50 mm and 70 mm. The rings are reinforced with welded elements to prevent deformation during installation.
• Shot Put Toe Board: plastic toe board, specially designed to meet the highest quality and safety standards. The board provides a reliable and stable base for both training and competitions.
• Ground Socket for Shot Put Circle: aluminum ground socket with drainage function. Designed for placement on a T-profile and equipped with side flanges for extra stability.

Extend the Lifespan of Your Equipment

Shot put is an outdoor sport. This means that the shot put equipment is constantly exposed to weather influences such as rain and wind. SKOR therefore provides protective solutions that are resistant to intensive use and wear. The weather protection cover for shot put circles is designed to protect the throwing ring from dirt and standing water. The cover is made of durable PVC and can be weighted down to keep it firmly in place.

Safety of Our Products

Safety is paramount in shot put. Our products comply with the applicable standards of World Athletics (WA). This means that the dimensions, materials, and finish are aligned with internationally recognized standards. This is essential, especially for competitions or official inspections. For training facilities, this also contributes to a reliable and professional sports environment.

All shot put equipment is delivered with clear assembly instructions. This ensures easy and stable, safe installation of your shot put facilities. If desired, we can advise on the correct execution for your location.
