    We were recently commission by the Boys & Girls Club of Kingston and Area to successfully renovate a new facility they recently acquired. What was once a workout facility is now home to the Boys & Girls Club, a facility that aims to provide a safe, supportive place where children and youth can experience new opportunities, overcome barriers, build positive relationships and develop confidence and skills for life. 

    Converting the existing facility to a new Boys & Girls Club obviously came with a variety of alterations and required a number of products to properly separate the space into the needed areas to support the ongoing user groups and events often held at Boys & Girls Clubs.

    University of Toronto Field Hockey Field

    November 6th of this year marks five years since the great city of Toronto was awarded the 2015 PAN AM & PARAPAN Games, giving the province of Ontario its first international multi-sport event since 1930.

    When the games come to Toronto next summer, it will mark only the third time this event has been held on Canadian soil, with Winnipeg, Manitoba being the only other host city in the country. Both the Pan Am & Parapan Games are held every four years, always preceding the Olympic and Paralympic Summer Games.

    With the start of the 2015 games approaching in less than a year, the organizing committee, project managers and volunteers are busy preparing sites in and around the Greater Toronto Area, anxiously awaiting the start of the games, set to kickoff on July 10th, 2015.

    As part of the development of multiple sites across Toronto, Sport Systems’ expertise was called upon to design, build and install a custom, retractable barrier netting solution to serve as a barrier around the perimeter of the Field Hockey venue located on the campus of the University of Toronto.
