Each weight in the Scholastic Shot Put line serves a specific competition standard. The 6 lb shot is the regulation weight for middle school boys, while the 8 lb shot is used in high school boys’ practice and younger age divisions. The 4 kg (8.8 lb) shot is the regulation competition weight for women’s and girls’ high school events, and the 12 lb option is the standard for high school boys’ competition. Having multiple weights on hand allows coaches to outfit an entire throwing roster without needing separate product orders, and it also gives athletes the option to train with lighter or heavier implements during practice. Cast iron construction keeps the cost down compared to turned iron or brass competition shots, making this a practical choice for programs that need to equip multiple throwers on a budget. Each shot is guaranteed to meet regulation specifications and weigh-in, so they are suitable for sanctioned meets as well as daily practice. These are among the most commonly ordered items in our disks and shots collection, and programs looking for a heavier competition-grade option may also want to consider the Steel Shot Put for varsity-level meets.
