All of the athletic relay races involve passing a baton. I.E. 100, 200, 400 metres relay races are examples
A baton pass is a technique used in relay races where one runner transfers a baton to the next runner. The outgoing runner begins running before receiving the baton to maintain speed and momentum, and the exchange typically occurs within a designated exchange zone. The key is to ensure a smooth handoff without dropping the baton, as this can lead to disqualification or a loss of time. Proper timing and coordination are essential for a successful baton pass.

If you throw the baton in a relay race, it typically results in disqualification for the team. The baton must be passed between runners during designated exchange zones; throwing it violates the rules. If a team member fails to properly pass the baton, they may lose valuable time and momentum, impacting their overall performance.
In relay races, baton changes can be executed using two primary methods: the blind pass and the visual pass. In the blind pass, the outgoing runner relies on timing and feel to receive the baton without looking back, which can be faster but requires precise coordination. Conversely, the visual pass involves the outgoing runner looking back to ensure a smooth handoff, typically used for less experienced teams or in longer relay races. Both methods necessitate practice to optimize speed and efficiency during the transition.
People who spin a baton around are commonly referred to as "majorettes" or "color guard members," especially when performing in a marching band or during parades. In competitive settings, they may also be called "twirlers" or "baton twirlers." These individuals often incorporate dance and choreography into their performances, showcasing skill and artistry with the baton.
