FAQ
What is the difference between the DC100P and the DC100?
The DC100P is the portable version, featuring six 24" square steel bases and six sand bags for stability without ground anchoring. The DC100 is a more permanent installation that uses 14" square steel bases with anchor holes and 18 anchor stakes. The DC100P is ideal for facilities that need flexibility, while the DC100 suits fixed, dedicated throwing areas.
Does this cage meet high school and collegiate regulations for discus practice?
Yes. The DC100P is designed with a 57.5' x 11.5' safe practice area that aligns with standard discus throwing cage dimensions used at the high school and collegiate levels. Always verify with your specific governing body (NFHS, NCAA, etc.) for the most current specifications.
Can this cage be set up on artificial turf or a gymnasium floor?
The portable steel bases are designed for outdoor use on natural grass or firm flat surfaces. Setup on artificial turf is possible, though we recommend confirming surface compatibility. This cage is not intended for indoor use. Contact us at service@omahasportsandgames.com for specific setup questions.
Is replacement netting available for the DC100P?
Yes. Fisher Athletic offers the DC100NET replacement net, which is compatible with both the DC100 and DC100P cage models. If your netting becomes worn or damaged over time, replacement netting is available separately so you don't need to replace the entire cage structure.
How many people are needed to set up this cage?
While exact setup crew size is not specified, a portable cage of this size - 57.5 feet wide - is typically handled by 2 to 4 people for efficient and safe assembly. Having additional hands makes positioning the bases, raising the netting, and placing the sand bags much easier.
