FAQs

What are the dimensions of the junior and senior batons?

While specific dimensions can vary slightly by manufacturer, junior batons are typically shorter and narrower than senior batons to accommodate smaller hands and athletes.

How many batons are included in a set?

Each set includes six relay batons.

Are these batons suitable for professional track and field events?

Yes, their lightweight aluminium construction and distinct colors meet the requirements for many athletic competitions.

Can I purchase individual batons if I lose one?

These are sold as a set of six. If an individual baton is lost, you would typically need to purchase a new set to maintain color consistency if needed, or use a different colored baton if that is acceptable for your event.

What material are the batons made of?

The batons are made of quality alloy, commonly referred to as aluminium.

How should I clean the batons?

Wipe them clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools.

Troubleshooting

Baton is difficult to grip.

Ensure you have selected the correct size (junior or senior) for the athlete's hand. For temporary grip enhancement, athletes may use athletic tape sparingly.

Colors are fading.

Store batons away from prolonged direct sunlight. Wipe clean gently with a damp cloth rather than abrasive cleaners.

Baton feels too light.

This is a characteristic of lightweight aluminium batons. Focus on technique to ensure a secure grip and smooth transfer.
