Practice Discuses to Help a Track & Field Team Get Better
My project needs 30 practice discuses and a couple of competition discuses for our girl's Track & Field team so that they they can learn how to throw and compete.

As a new junior high track & field coach over "field" events I need equipment to improve our program.
Due to excellent track coaches, our school has always competed well in the running events. However, the field events have been neglected until I came. Many students don't compete in track because they don't like running. Being new to this school, I have started to get kids excited about competing in field events, but they need the equipment to help them succeed. My strength in coaching field events is in the discus event so I plan to start changing things there.
Athletes learning to throw the discus need many repetitions without having to wait to share one discus. I have about sixteen athletes wanting to learn and compete with the discus. Our junior high uses the 1k discus for both boys and girls until they go to high school, so I need both practice discus and competition discus to help them succeed.
Good equipment makes a big difference on how well an athlete does. With your help, I hope to help these young student athletes develop to their fullest potential.
