When it comes to sports in the state of Pennsylvania, there is arguably no better fan base on the planet. Whether vehemently cheering for the Eagles, Phillies or Flyers in the eastern portion of the state or the Penguins, Steelers and Pirates in the east, Pennsylvania has plenty to offer.
Add in premiere collegiate and high school sports and you’ve got a state that truly never stops producing. As part of that, we’ve had a long-standing relationship with the Keystone state and their athletic programming over the years. Having performed a number of projects with our former partners, Pennsylvania is one of those places that produced projects that we still talk about to this day.
After some rather unfortunate circumstances, we are now actively pursuing representation in the great state of Pennsylvania for sports equipment and infrastructure. Without an established dealer in the territory, we’ve been unable to service a number of qualified leads looking for equipment such as bleachers, grandstands and a variety of other athletic equipment.
If you or someone you know is looking for a strategic partner with established roots in the athletic industry, we encourage you to share this message with them. Not only do we have over 40 years worth of experience in the industry, we also boast one of the most robust dealer networks in the game. With hundreds of leads coming in on a monthly basis, we aim to share the wealth with our partners around the world.
In light of the above call to action, we’d also like to showcase a couple of our marquee projects completed in Pennsylvania over the past few years.
Juniata High School, Juniata County
Located smack dab in the middle of the state, we were called by then Athletic Director Joe Skura to help design and install a new grandstand bleacher and customized press box for the local high school’s football field.
With an outdated grandstand on-site, we needed to work quickly to ensure that the condemned bleacher was replaced with a state-of-the-art and completely ADA-accessible grandstand for the following football season.
Working around challenges such as an existing light standard that could not be moved, our design team and our local dealer were able to communicate effectively throughout the whole project and design a seamless solution.
Today, the school’s football team is handsomely adorned with two new sets of grandstand seating featuring room for 2,000 on the home grandstand and space for up to 800 on the visitor’s side.
Eastern University, Philadelphia
Working alongside our partners in Pennsylvania, this project was a pretty one that allowed us to truly ‘spread our wings’ creatively with our GameDay GraFX bleacher logo product. Riding on the tails of some recent upgrades at the university, our team was brought in to create a lasting impression with these new bleachers
Through our established partnerships, our product was presented to the client and quickly selected as the front-runner. Our team took the school’s design files and quickly created digital mock-ups of the seating before sending the seats into production.
The result is an absolutely stunning display of school spirit in Eastern University’s gymnasium and one that will remain for many sports seasons to come.
