    A big part of some of the projects we undertake here at Sport Systems is retrofitting existing facilities with both equipment and programs that aid in ensuring future safety for both facility operational staff and participants. A large area of concern for many schools and facilities is aging equipment like gym dividers and partitions that can easily become quite dangerous if not serviced properly.

    We recently were commissioned to remove and dispose of an aging and non-functioning folding hard gym partition for St. Joseph’s High School in Renfrew, Ontario. In its place we supplied and installed a brand new top-roll gym divider curtain complete with electric operation and key switch.

    This past June, Carleton University in Ottawa awarded a contract to Davan Group Inc. to convert their old practice area from a natural surface to a state-of-the-art artificial field, along with a number of other site improvements including landscaping, natural stone retaining walls and the sports furnishings for the field.

    When it came to selecting a sports equipment and infrastructure supplier and manufacturer, the university ultimately chose Sport Systems to provide their new field with the necessary equipment.

    Being an exclusive dealer of KwikGoal equipment here in Canada, we began by supplying the university with a pair of CFL regulation height football uprights featuring an extended gooseneck design. The university was also looking for a certain level of personalization with their football uprights and we proudly printed and installed custom logos to the padded areas of both football uprights.

    Designing & Manufacturing Custom Arena Bleachers for the Village of Rycroft, Alberta

    This fall we completed an arena bleacher project in tandem with our partners at Omni Sport in Alberta. The project was to involve the removal and disposal of the original wooden bleachers inside the hockey rink, restore the concrete slab base and then supply and install new arena bleachers and rink boards for the arena.

    Given our years of experience taking arena bleachers to the next level through seating upgrades, Ominsport turned to us to design and manufacture the bleacher seating needed to suit their clients’ needs.

    The bleacher system was all based upon the foundation of a galvanized steel angle frame under structure, combined with an elevated front deck with custom stair case access for patrons at either end.

    To help keep maintenance low, the arena bleachers were designed with a fully closed aluminum deck design. This unique design eliminates any garbage or debris from falling beneath the structure and allows operations staff an easy to clean bleacher seating system. Our design team also was able to include notched out areas around the penalty boxes, allowing for a virtually seamless fit to the existing design of the arena.
