relay teams

Relay teams are groups of athletes who work together by taking turns running specific segments of a race, like a 4x100-meter sprint. Each team member runs their designated portion before passing a baton to the next runner, requiring coordination, speed, and smooth handoffs. The goal is to complete the race faster than other teams by combining individual strengths efficiently. Relay teams often compete in track and field and rely heavily on teamwork, strategy, and practice to optimize performance and minimize mistakes during baton exchanges.
