Track & Field Equipment

Gill's Fiberglass Measuring Tape gives track & field programs a dependable, long-life measuring solution for the throwing events and any layout task where cloth tapes fall short. The vinyl-coated fiberglass construction delivers high tensile strength and stays flexible in the field, so the tape won't kink, break, or lose its calibration even if it's twisted or stepped on during a busy meet.

Key features & specs:

• Vinyl-coated fiberglass blade with high tensile strength for years of reliable service
• More flexible and far more durable than traditional cloth tapes — resists kinking and breaking
• Dual English and Metric scales printed on the blade for fast reads in either unit
• Zero line located right at the end of the ring for accurate, repeatable measurements
• Closed-reel 50' (15m) format shown here; also available in open-reel 100' (30m), 165' (50m), 200' (60m), 300' (90m) and 330' (100m) lengths
• Officially approved for high school competition use

Coach's tip: Keep one tape dedicated to the throws sector so the zero ring stays clean and true. Care: Wipe the blade down after muddy or wet meets and let it air-dry fully before reeling it back in to prevent grit buildup inside the case.

Measure the throws and jumps with confidence using the Gill Steel Measuring Tape (330' / 100M, Open Reel). Built for the demands of track & field, this long-format steel tape delivers the accuracy officials need to record marks correctly across the shot, discus, javelin, hammer, and horizontal jumps.

Key features & specs:

• Long 330' / 100M length for full-field throws and jumps measurement
• Durable steel tape blade coated with an epoxy finish for wear resistance
• Zero line at the end of the ring for accurate, repeatable measurements
• Open-reel design for fast winding and payout
• Also offered in closed-reel 50' (15m) and 100' (30m) and open-reel 300' (90m) formats

Coach's tip: Keep the blade straight and taut along the ground when recording a mark, and wind the reel slowly to avoid kinks. Wipe the tape down and let it dry before reeling it in fully so the epoxy finish and blade stay in top condition.

Guide runners cleanly through every turn with the Gill Cross Country Directional Flag Pole (Red, Left Turn). Bright, color-coded course flags are the backbone of a well-marked cross country course — this red left-turn flag tells athletes exactly where the course bends so races stay fair, fast, and on route.

Key features & specs:

• Red directional flag pole designating a left turn
• Part of Gill's color-coded course-marking system (red = left, yellow = right, blue = straight)
• High-visibility flag mounts on a course post for clear sightlines
• Pairs with chute posts, chute rope with pennants, and directional posts
• Also available as a complete kit (24 chute posts, two 110' rope lengths, 9 directional flags, 9 directional posts)

Coach's tip: Place turn flags a few strides ahead of each bend and on the inside of the turn so lead runners commit to the correct line. Collect and store flags dry after each meet to protect the fabric color and keep the poles straight.

Make implement check-in fast and airtight with the Gill HS/NCAA/World Athletics Javelin Certification Kit. This official-friendly, self-contained kit gives you the gauges and scale to confirm that every implement meets specification — with labeled tabs and laser-cut gauges that make finding the right check quick and the readings dependable.

Key features & specs:

• Self-contained certification kit; includes a scale plus size gauges
• Checks specifications for the discus, javelin, shot put, and hammer (by model)
• Labeled tabs help officials quickly find the correct-sized gauge
• Horizontally designed, ergonomic hammer gauge
• Laser-cut gauges and labels for extreme accuracy and permanency
• Model options: 93051 High School, 93066 High School Javelin, 93075 NCAA, 93080 World Athletics

Coach's tip: Match the kit model to the level you host so you have gauges for every weight class you'll certify. Keep the kit closed in its case and stored indoors to protect the laser-cut gauges and preserve their accuracy meet after meet.

Give your finish-line camera exactly what it needs with Gill Hip Numbers (#1–9, Sets of 25). Applied to each athlete's hip, these high-visibility labels let photo-finish systems and place judges identify runners instantly as they cross the line — a must-have for any fully-automatic-timing meet.

Key features & specs:

• Designed for photo-finish timing identification
• Bold 3" digit printed on a 4" x 3" label for clear camera visibility
• No-residue adhesive labels peel off cleanly after the race
• Each set includes 25 of the selected number
• Single digits #1 through #9 available to build any hip-number sequence
• Works hand-in-hand with your FAT (fully automatic timing) system and place judges

Coach's tip: Apply the hip number to the athlete's right hip facing the finish camera so the timing crew can read it on every image, and press firmly along the whole label so no edge lifts mid-race. Assign numbers by lane or seed before the meet to speed check-in. Keep the labels in a cool, dry spot beforehand so the adhesive stays fresh and presses on cleanly.

Never scramble for pins on meet day again with Gill Safety Pins, sold in a convenient bulk set of 144. These are the go-to fasteners for attaching competitor numbers and hip numbers to uniforms, keeping your athletes properly identified for officials, timers, and photo-finish cameras throughout the day.

Key features & specs:

• Standard safety pins for attaching competitor bibs and numbers
• Bulk pack of 144 pins keeps a full roster supplied
• Also available in a larger 1,440-quantity pack for big invitationals
• Reusable across meets — stock the officials' table and clerking area
• Bulk quantity means you won't run short during a busy invitational
• An essential companion to competitor and hip number sets

Coach's tip: Keep a filled pin box at the clerk-of-course table and hand out four pins per athlete so bibs stay flat and readable for the finish camera — a flapping corner can hide a number at the worst moment. Store leftover pins in a sealed container to keep them from scattering or rusting between meets, and toss any that show corrosion.

The Brutus HS is Gill's heavy-wind solution for high school discus facilities — built when a standard 2-7/8" pole cage isn't enough. The 4" outside diameter, .218" thick-wall aluminum poles provide the structural mass needed to resist deflection in windy conditions, keeping the cage stable and the net properly positioned during competition regardless of weather. Available in 6-pole or 7-pole configuration and custom color options.

• Hammer Cage-Strength 4" Aluminum Poles — 4" outside diameter, .218" thick-wall aluminum poles provide significantly greater structural rigidity than the standard 2-7/8" HS cage poles, resisting wind-induced deflection and maintaining net geometry during high-wind competition conditions where standard cages flex or shift
• 6-Pole or 7-Pole Configuration — Available in standard 6-pole layout or 7-pole design — the 7-pole configuration extends the net forward from the sides to comply with the 34.92° sector requirement while providing a less restrictive feel for throwers during approach and release
• 14'4" Net Height — Cage stands 14'4" tall, providing adequate containment height for discus throws at the high school competition level while meeting NFHS net height specifications for sanctioned competition use
• UV-Stabilized Nylon Net — 180 lb Break Strength — High school-spec nylon 6 main net with 180 lb break strength resists UV degradation through outdoor exposure, maintaining net integrity and containment reliability through a full outdoor season of competition and training use
• Ground Sleeves and Net Arms Included — Complete installation package includes ground sleeves for permanent in-ground pole installation and net arms to hold the net in proper position at the front of the cage — everything needed for a full cage installation in one purchase
• Custom Color Options Available — NFHS Compliant — 5-Year Warranty — Available in custom color configurations for an additional cost to match school and facility colors; meets all NFHS specifications for sanctioned high school discus competition; backed by Gill's 5-year manufacturer warranty

Certify your throwing implements to the highest standard with the Porter/Gill World Athletics Implement Certification Kit. Designed to make an official's job simple, this self-contained kit lets you confirm that every implement meets the exacting size and weight requirements for sanctioned international, collegiate, and high school competition before it ever reaches the circle.

Key features & specs:

• Self-contained certification kit for verifying throwing implements
• Checks the specifications for discus, javelin, shot put, and hammer
• World Athletics configuration covers the full range of certified weight classes
• Laser-cut gauges and labeled tabs for extreme accuracy and quick reference
• Includes an integrated scale to verify implement weight
• Ergonomically designed, horizontal hammer gauge
• An indispensable tool for meet officials and clerks at sanctioned competitions

Coach's tip: Run every competition implement through the gauges and scale during check-in so athletes aren't surprised by a DQ at the ring. Store the kit in its case indoors to keep the laser-cut gauges precise and protected between meets.

Build safe, repeatable throwing reps with the Gill Rubber Discus with Hand Strap (1K). The adjustable strap keeps the implement secured to the athlete's hand through the wind-up and turn, making it a smart tool for teaching release timing and rotational mechanics without the disc flying loose across the field.

Key features & specs:

• 1 kg rubber discus sized for developing and women's/girls' throwers
• Adjustable hand strap keeps the implement controlled during technique work
• Durable rubber construction stands up to repeated training use
• Rubber build is more forgiving on hands and surfaces than a metal-rim disc
• Ideal for teaching grip, rotation, and release timing
• For training use only

Coach's tip: Use the strap version early in the season to groove the throwing motion and build confidence with beginners before they handle a loose implement, then progress athletes to a standard competition discus as their mechanics lock in. Check the strap for wear before each session, always practice inside a protective cage, wipe the disc clean after use, and store indoors to preserve the rubber and strap.

Dial in your throwers' technique across a full range of loads with the Gill Training Discus (0.85K–1.2K). This variable-weight training disc lets athletes move quickly between weights on a single implement, making it ideal for progressive overload work, technical drilling, and warm-up routines in the throws circle.

Key features & specs:

• Adjustable training discus spanning 0.85K to 1.2K
• Weight adjusts in fine 0.05K increments for precise progression
• Quick, easy transitions from one weight to the next
• Lets one implement cover under-, at-, and over-weight training loads
• A cost-effective alternative to buying multiple fixed-weight practice discs
• Built for training only — not competition legal

Coach's tip: Use lighter settings to reinforce speed through the release and heavier settings to build strength and positional control, then compete with a legal discus. Over-weight throws build the specific strength that carries over to competition distance, while under-weight throws train faster hand speed. Always throw inside a protective cage, wipe the disc down after each session, and store indoors to protect the rim and adjustment hardware.

Keep spectators and staff safe at the ring with the Gill Barrier Net for the 8010 Discus Cage. This outer net wraps around the outside of your cage poles to stop anyone from crowding against the main net during throws — an easy, essential upgrade to any high school discus setup.

Key features & specs:

• Sized 8' x 64'7" to fit the Gill 8010 High School Aluminum Discus Cage
• Wraps around the outside of the cage poles for a full secondary safety perimeter
• Stands 8 feet tall to keep spectators back from the main containment net
• Improves event safety by preventing anyone from standing against the outer net
• Barrier nets are also available for other Gill cages (8020, 8021, 8030) in matching sizes

Coach's tip: Confirm your exact cage model before ordering so the barrier length matches your pole spacing. Take the net down and store it dry between meets to protect it from prolonged UV exposure and extend its service life.

Raise the bar on your high jump program with the Gill G4 High Jump Standards. Built from heavy-duty aluminum with custom glide parts, they deliver smooth, precise height changes and rock-solid stability from warm-ups through the final attempt — a competition-grade standard trusted at the highest levels of the sport.

Key features & specs:

• Heavy-duty aluminum uprights and risers with custom glide parts for smooth operation
• Weighted steel base with wheels for easy mobility and leveling feet for a true setup
• Clamping mechanism pulls upright and riser together to lock in the desired height
• Height adjustment from 2'8" to 8'4" with an adjustable height-readout window
• Reads both English and Metric measurements
• Meets NFHS, NCAA, and World Athletics specifications; World Athletics Certified
• Backed by a 10-year warranty

Coach's tip: Level the base carefully on uneven surfaces before competition so the crossbar sits true across both standards. Wipe down the uprights and store indoors to keep the glides moving freely and protect the finish.

The Gill AGX M2 Pole Vault Standards are a premium, competition-grade standard built to make height changes fast, measurement precise, and athletes safer. A hand-crank system speeds up transitions between heights, while a dual positional locking system lets you switch between quick practice adjustments and locked-in competition peg heights. Paired with a customizable 2" safety pad, an internal measuring tape, and a stable steel base with Easy-Port hinge mobility, it's a standard that performs at the highest levels of high school and collegiate vaulting.

Key features & specs

• Hand-crank height system — Simplifies and speeds up transitions between bar heights
• Dual positional locking — Practice Mode for quick height changes; Competition Mode locks peg height during jumps
• Customizable 2" safety pad — Choose color and graphics; increases athlete safety and reduces vaulting-pole damage

The Gill S6 Discus brings competition performance and eye-catching design together for developing throwers. Part of Gill's low- to mid-spin S-Series, it features exclusive high-impact translucent side plates in distinctive in-molding patterns paired with a quality steel rim — a combination that delivers reliable, forgiving flight for athletes still refining their release. This 1K, 58%-rim configuration is recommended for high school girls' competition and meets every major governing-body specification.

Key features & specs

• Low- to mid-spin design — Forgiving flight characteristics well suited to developing throwers
• 1K weight, 58% rim — Rim-weight distribution tuned for controllable, consistent throws
• High-quality steel rim — Durable rim for consistent grip and dependable edge contact
• Translucent side plates — Colorful, high-impact plates in distinctive in-molding patterns
• Recommended use — High school girls' competition
• Meets specifications — Conforms to NFHS, NCAA, and World Athletics standards

Coach's tip: Match the rim-weight percentage to the thrower's experience level — lower rim weight is more forgiving for athletes still developing spin. Care: Wipe the discus clean after each session, dry it before storage, and inspect the rim edge for nicks that affect flight.

The Gill Coliseum Hammer/Discus Cage is a premium, competition-grade throwing enclosure engineered to make big meets safer, faster, and easier to run. Its innovative 3-pole super structure opens up sightlines for athletes, coaches, judges, and spectators while standing up to high winds — and its retractable sliding net doors and single-operator winch system make setup, implement retrieval, and takedown dramatically quicker than traditional cages. For programs hosting championship-level hammer and discus competition, it's built to perform.

Key features & specs

• 3-pole super structure — Improves sightlines for everyone at the venue, reduces upright damage from high winds, and lowers installation costs
• Sliding net doors — Eliminate heavy metal door frames that risk implement damage and act as dangerous wind sails; retractable net closure is secured by an overhead magnet plate and a ground anchor key
• Faster competition setup — Streamlined door and net system speeds up meet-day configuration
• Single-operator U-net frame and winch — Raise or lower the U-net frame in under 5 minutes with a self-provided drill tool, with cable routing engineered for one-person operation

Coach's tip: Assign one trained operator to the winch system so setup and implement retrieval stay quick and consistent throughout a meet. Care: Inspect netting, cables, and anchor points regularly, and retract the door nets when the cage is not in use.

Throwing cages have to be anchored securely, and the Gill Ground Sleeve Kit is the in-ground hardware that makes it happen. Set permanently into a concrete footing, the sleeves accept the cage uprights so the whole structure locks in solidly for competition — then lets you remove the cage for storage or field access when it's not in use. It's the foundation that keeps a hammer or discus cage stable, safe, and properly positioned meet after meet.

Key features & specs

• Secure in-ground anchoring — Ground sleeves set into concrete to hold cage uprights firmly during competition
• Fits multiple Gill cages — Ground Sleeve Kit for the 742110 NCAA Hammer Cage, the 742115 cage, and the 8030 cage
• Removable setup — Lets the cage be taken down and reinstalled without disturbing the anchor points
• Durable construction — Built to withstand permanent in-ground installation and repeated cage mounting

Coach's tip: Have the sleeves installed by a qualified contractor to the cage manufacturer's footing spec so the structure sits plumb and secure. Care: Cap the sleeves when the cage is removed to keep dirt and debris out of the openings.

The Gill Polymer Platform gives your Gill 654 Pole Vault landing system a dry, elevated foundation that fights the biggest enemy of any pit: standing water. By lifting the foam and vinyl base off the ground surface, it stops rain and ground moisture from soaking in from below — the leading cause of foam breakdown and casing rot in pole vault pits. Molded from tough polymer, it resists rust and corrosion entirely, delivering a long-lasting base with virtually no upkeep.

Key features & specs

• Elevates the pit — Raises the 654 Pole Vault landing system above the ground to prevent water damage and extend service life
• Durable polymer construction — Rust- and corrosion-proof, with no metal components to degrade over time
• Modular pallet design — Individual sections are easy to carry, position, and store
• Built for the 654 System — Sized to support the Gill 654 Pole Vault landing system

Coach's tip: Set the platform on a level, well-draining surface and confirm the pit sits flush across the full base before every season. Care: Rinse off dirt and debris periodically and stack the sections for compact storage in the off-season.

The Gill Polymer Platform is the modern, low-maintenance way to keep a Gill 641 High Jump landing system off the ground and out of standing water. Elevating the pit protects its foam core and vinyl casing from the moisture that pools on tracks and infields — the number-one cause of premature landing-system breakdown. Built from durable polymer instead of metal, this platform won't rust or corrode, making it an easy, long-term foundation for programs that leave their pits set up through the season.

Key features & specs

• Elevates the pit — Raises the 641 High Jump landing system above the ground to prevent water damage and extend pit life
• Durable polymer construction — Rust-proof and corrosion-proof, with no metal to degrade in wet conditions
• Modular pallet design — Made up of individual sections that are easy to carry, position, and store
• Built for the 641 System — Sized to support the Gill 641 High Jump landing system

Coach's tip: Place the platform on a level, well-draining surface so water sheds away from the pit rather than collecting around the base. Care: Rinse off debris as needed and stack the sections for compact off-season storage.

Keep your discus cage meet-ready with the Gill Main Net, the direct replacement panel for Gill's portable discus cage systems. Cage netting takes a beating from repeated implement strikes and season-long UV exposure, and a worn or torn net compromises the safety perimeter the cage exists to provide. This replacement net restores that protection with the same knotless nylon construction and rated break strength Gill builds into its competition cages.

Key features & specs

• Fits multiple Gill cages — Replacement net for the 732230 NCAA Portable Discus Cage (16'6" x 68'6"), the 732240 International Portable Discus Cage (16'6" x 82"), and the 732250 NCAA Portable Indoor Cage
• #42A knotless nylon netting — Durable, competition-grade mesh built to absorb repeated implement impact
• 561 lb break strength — Rated to hold up under the demands of discus competition
• 13'2" net height — Restores the full protective height of the cage

Coach's tip: Inspect cage netting at the start of each season and after major storms — replacing a compromised net is far cheaper than an incident. Care: Let the net dry before extended storage to prevent mildew, and check attachment points for wear.

Vaulting poles are a major investment, and the Gill Custom Pole Bag protects them in transit while giving your program a sharp, team-branded look. Built from heavy-duty vinyl with leather-reinforced ends, it stands up to the loading, hauling, and travel that come with a full season of meets. Order it in your school's colors and turn a basic equipment bag into a piece of team identity that travels everywhere your vaulters do.

Key features & specs

• Custom look — Personalize the bag to match your school's colors and personality
• Holds five-plus poles — Carries at least five vaulting poles at once
• Heavy-duty vinyl — Tough outer material built for repeated travel and storage
• Leather-reinforced ends — Added durability at the high-wear ends for a long service life
• 10' length — Made to fit a 6" corrugated drain tube (tube not included) for rigid protection

Coach's tip: Slide the bag over a 6" corrugated drain tube so poles ride inside a rigid shell that resists bending and impact during transport. Care: Wipe the vinyl clean, let it dry before storage, and check the reinforced ends periodically for wear.
