If you are 13 you should be able to throw ATLEAST 30ft. My school record is 43ft 8in. And if you cant throw around 30ft you mignt want to pick a different event.

I am 14 and my farthest throw was about 6m but with a 4kg shotput to throw at least 30 ft you must be either Hulk or someone like that unless they used a shotput which weighs like 1kg

How is that the top answer? Dont bother competing unless you throw 30'? No. It's so wrong. Probably a teenager wrote that. Please ignore it. If your kids wants to do shot put, let them as long as they are willing to learn and practice the technique. If a kid (boy or girl) wants to learn shot put then start learning proper technique. Then start to pay attention to setting realistic goals, and achieving them. Some may break school records and that's nice. But the real reward is learning the concept of steady improvement over time and reaching your goals. That is a key "life skill" they will take with them through life.

My son is 13, 7th grade, played football and excelled, but he loves throwing events. This is his first year and he is winning around 60% of the meets, and he's beating bigger and older kids. But he doesn't care are about the wins. He told me yesterday that setting goals, and reaching his goals by learning and drilling form is more gratifying because he realized he is in control of his progress. Many of his competitors that beat him aren't drilling technique. Those competitors aren't improving. He is. By the end of the season, he is trying to add 5 feet to his current throw. Next year, his last year in middle school, he wants to shatter the record (44' something) by at least 2 feet. I told him if he focuses, plans, take smaller steps towards improving, he can get there.

I personally think it doesn’t matter as long as you are having fun, everyone is different and everyone is taught different….but if you wanna put a number on it i think 20 feet is a great place to start

Ugh. Easy Napoleon. Size does matter in shot put. Probably "small weight between your legs (lack of counter weight) helped your throw. J/k. Seriously though... size matters, strength matters, but more importantly, form matters most.
