The Best Seats
In The House

When it comes to your school or local gymnasium, much of the activities that take place on the court are athletic in nature and make up the majority of the time and energy spent in the space. For many facility managers and operators out there, getting bogged down in the day-to-day can sometimes get in the way of ensuring that these types of athletic spaces are working for us as well.

The fact is, your gymnasium should also serve your facility, be it a school or community centre, as an additional source of revenue. While this is common sense to many, there are a number of ways you might not have thought of that can contribute to your operation’s bottom line.

Whether you are working on designing a new outdoor sports field, community park, greenspace or other athletic facility, there is so much that goes into the planning process.

When it comes to athletics, we are immediately drawn to what is required to play the game. Items such as soccer goals, football uprights, turf, field paint, etc. are usually the first to get squared away. Following closely behind is the determination as to what kind of seating will be required for the new location. While requirements definitely differ from location to location and are based on what prospective sport is scheduled to be played, most will settle on either a smaller 3-10 row bleacher structure or opt for a larger seating structure such as a complete grandstand.

The complementary amenities market is exploding as designers, planners and operators are looking for additional ways to make the most out of their facility. Below we have broken down the top three site amenities suited to accommodate your next bleacher seating purchase.

While keeping score with a pad of paper on a foldable table certainly can get the job done, many facilities are now opting to upgrade their score-keeping abilities through the use of innovative digital scorers tables.

Much the same as those used in large-scale sporting events such as boxing, UFC, professional basketball and the like, elementary schools, secondary schools, colleges, and universities are all turning digital in this ever-changing technological landscape we live in today.

As such, we have recently released a new product line featuring the very best in digital scoring tables, offering our growing customer base yet another innovative product to enhance their facilities. These tables allow for scorekeepers, staff members, and commentators to sit comfortably on the sidelines to keep score, record statistics and make announcements throughout any sporting event. 

As these products enter the mainstream market, here are a few benefits that are immediately realized after the initial purchase and installation.
