so my son is 12, about to be 13 in 7th grade. he throws varsity discuss and shotput for his middle school
128' is what won the last meet but this kid is a hold back in 8th grade and i think he is 15 already.
90' was 2nd by an 8th grader
my son finished third with 84'
my son has been on varsity since 5th grade since dont have a ton of kids that want to throw. usually in boys there are 2 over 100' or atleast 1 and 1 very close.
his goal is to hit 90' this year and 125 next year as he is getting much stronger and we plan to hit a true LP program as soon as track is over.

My daughter was the only girl in her discus competition last week. There were about 12 boys. I think one kid threw it about 73’. Not bad for a 6th grader. My daughter is strong and athletic, so her coaches assumed she could throw it, and she has really gotten interested in it. We have just been working on a speed ladder for footwork and band work for flexibility and strength. Throwing, on average, about 40 throws each practice. She has steadily improved. We have two discs and as she throws I’ll frisbee it back to her so there is one ready to go after the other one flies. It keeps the pace going.
