It’s been nine long years since CFL football fans in Ottawa have had anything football related to cheer about. This season marks the return of the CFL to Ottawa with their new expansion team; the Ottawa REDBLACKS, and the city is abuzz with excitement for their home opener on July 18, 2014.

The REDBLACKS new home will be the freshly designed and renovated TD Place located at Landsdowne Park in Ottawa, and along with a sharp new look, seating and concessions, Sport Systems was contacted to install players benches for the football club.

The bench chosen was our 18 foot length portable aluminum player’s bench, equipped with backrests for player comfort.

Last month our installation team got to work, and installed twelve benches in the new REDBLACKS facility, each sized to fit 12 persons per bench (maybe less given the size of these athletes!).

We were honored and are very excited to welcome back CFL Football to Canada’s capital and wish both the REDBLACKS and the Ottawa Fury FC all the success they deserve in their beautiful new home.
