HNJZXRelay Running Baton, Aluminium Relay Batons Sporting Goods Running Relay Batons Track and Field Relay Batons Sticks, for Track and Field Outdoor Field Race Tools (4 Assorted Colors)

I bought these to use for PE class with my students for relay races. Received quickly and serve their purpose. No complaints.

These are so fun for impromptu get-togethers with kids. A little friendly competition always gets the party going and these help do just that. Even the dog gets in on the racing. We have used these for several parties and plan to use in our own "family Olympic games" next summer.

The HNJZX batons are perfect for my relay-running boys to practice handoffs with the official weight and size they'll be using in competition. Nice rolled edges keep these metal bars comfortable (and safe!), and the aluminum construction means the batons won't get too hot when left out on a sunny infield. Excellent!

These are very lightweight and colorful batons—in fact, TOO lightweight. Mine arrived, literally, in a plastic bag. And, that was not enough protection. Two were severely crushed on the ends, and I had to order a replacement set (which arrived with no issue). While these won’t weigh your runners down, they are also not going to stand up to much dropping or anything else, either. I recommend you look for something a little heavier and a lot more durable. I cannot recommend these.

I used these with a large group of kids to show them how to run a relay and they were a hit! I haven’t compared them, but they appear to be longer, slimmer, and more brightly colored than your traditional batons. That is great for kids because their hands are smaller and length leaves less room for error. The bright colors are also more fun to look at. I would definitely recommend these for coaches to use with less experienced runners, P.E. teachers, or for field days!
