The Best Seats
In The House

When it comes to custom digital graphics, our proprietary GameDay GraFX solution has been making waves in the athletic space since launching it a few short years ago. Having done a number of custom graphic projects on bleacher seats in the past, we made it our mission to perfect the process and offer the marketplace a digital graphic that would look brilliant and wouldn’t scuff or wear off over time.

As the market got a hold of it, so did a number of our partners, including architects across North America. A recent project included the request for our innovative digital graphic technique, providing an excellent example of how an ancillary product can really take an organization’s design to the next level.

If you’ve been following us for any period of time, you’ll know that we take every opportunity to brag about the products and services we provide. Having been in the sports equipment industry for over 40 years, we’ve been through a lot and that has helped us provide the best service and the best products to the marketplace for decades.

What we don’t often talk about is the visionary people behind the scenes. Those who have been a part of the company since its inception and who have, with the help of many others, shaped the trajectory of our company over the years.

If you’ve been fortunate enough to spend any time in the Maritimes on Canada’s east coast, as the saying goes, you’re fortunate enough. It’s always a pleasure to head down to beautiful New Brunswick and work with our partners in the area on new and exciting projects.

This time, we were united with our partners at Interior Visions in their home province. Looking to tackle yet another sizable job, we found ourselves at the drawing table for a brand new telescopic bleacher system. One of the area's largest community colleges, Collège communautaire du Nouveau-Brunswick (CCNB) was in search of some innovative seating for their gymnasium.

At a site that was once home to a local hockey rink since the early 1970s, we were brought in to help develop the plan for the future. Located in picturesque North Rustico, PEI, the North Stars Arena had been home to local hockey in the area for years but was in need of improvements considering the building’s outdated infrastructure.

Our custom padding department recently answered the call for another unusual and highly customized padding job.  We were approached by Crestwood High School in Peterborough, Ontario to design some padding as part of some recent renovations to the gymnasium.

Serving as home to the Mustangs, the school began a list of renovations which included some brand-new storage units that would allow for additional athletic equipment to be stored when not in use. Because these units run along the edge of the sports court they required the installation of safety padding to protect student athletes.

We’ve got a knack for making things stick, especially when it comes to our GameDay GraFX logo product. Digitally adhering logos and other graphics to HDPE bleacher seats, our process leads the industry in quality and durability. Since launching this game-changing product, we’ve worked with schools and institutions across Canada and the United States to boost school spirit with crystal-clear logos on their indoor bleachers.

Founded in 1967 in the Greater Toronto Area, Durham College is located in Oshawa, Ontario. The college currently has roughly 95,000 alumni and offers programming including business, information technology, media, art, design, general arts, science, skilled trades, justice, emergency services, health and engineering technology.

Having designed and built many bleacher systems for clients around the world, when large colleges and universities are in need of  large outdoor seating solutions, Sport Systems is always among the first contacts made. 

Operating as the only school in the province of Ontario for blind and deafblind students, W. Ross McDonald School draws students from across Canada to its location in Brantford and also offers a residence to accommodate students from out of province. In addition to providing a supportive curriculum to enrolled students, the school also provides various programming through short-term programs for neighbouring school boards.

The school has a number of special features designed to aid students in navigating around the buildings. Varied materials and textures in walls and flooring as well as eye-level windows further enhance the experience for students at the school. In addition to these features, the school is also equipped with an athletics program for the student body.

Operating 79 elementary schools and 20 secondary schools, the District School Board of Niagara reached out to our team to explore options for upgrading the gymnasium at one of their schools. With a focus on student success, the board takes both academics and athletics very seriously and as such, is frequently looking for new and innovative ways to improve their school’s offerings.

Jean Sauvé French Immersion Public School was in the process of upgrading some components of their gymnasium and was in the market for a new seating option. Looking for a retractable bleacher system that could easily be rolled out for sporting events or retracted when not in use was the most logical option.

Over the course of our company’s history here in the Greater Ottawa Area, we’ve had the pleasure of working with the Ottawa Boys & Girls Clubs on various projects. While we carry a lot of pride in every project we undertake, working for organizations such as the Boys and Girls Club truly makes us feel as though we are making a difference here in our community.

With a brand new gymnasium recently completed at the Club’s Heatherington Rd. location, the organization reached out to our team to design a new seating system for the gymnasium. With hopes of raucous support from their peers, the plan was to install bleacher seating to support the budding athletes from around the Ottawa area for many years to come.
