Product Overview
The Gill Athletics World Athletics Coliseum Hammer/Discus Cage is engineered for premier track & field facilities that require the highest levels of safety, performance, and competition compliance. Featuring an innovative 3-pole super structure, the cage delivers improved sightlines for athletes, coaches, judges, and spectators while reducing structural stress caused by high winds. This streamlined three-pole design also helps reduce installation costs compared to traditional multi-post cage systems.
The cage incorporates retractable sliding net doors that eliminate the need for heavy metal door frames. This design minimizes implement damage while removing the dangerous wind sail effect common with traditional doors. The sliding net closure system secures easily with an overhead magnet plate and ground anchor key, making event setup faster and simpler for competition officials.
For improved usability during meets and training, the cage features a single-operator U-Net frame and winch system. The U-Net frame can be raised or lowered in under five minutes using a standard drill, allowing staff to quickly retrieve implements and resume competition. Gill's exclusive winch and cable routing system is engineered for safe, single-person operation without heavy equipment.
Designed for international-level performance, the Coliseum Cage meets World Athletics specifications, making it ideal for stadium installations, elite collegiate programs, and professional track & field venues.
