These towels are actually called "shammies" they are quick absorbent towels that help athletes dry off quickly and are generally used by those in aquatic events.

They are a special towel that has to be wet to absorb water (when they are completely dry they feel like cardboard). basically they just help to get rid of any excess water on your body.
