We Outfit TD Place With Custom Player & Referee Shelters

Written by Ryan Wilby | Aug 5, 2014 10:45:00 AM

Once again, the expertise of Sport Systems was called upon by the wonderful folks at TD Place and the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group.  In addition to installing players benches for the Ottawa RedBlacks before their home opener, we have also just completed a project for the Ottawa Fury, and the upcoming 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup.

In July we installed custom designed, FIFA approved soccer players team shelters and referee shelters at TD Place in Ottawa.  These shelters were designed and manufactured for FIFA, The Canadian Soccer Association and the Ottawa Sports & Entertainment Group for a truly unique and custom application. 

  

These custom shelters feature extruded aluminum posts & framework with a custom red powder coat, tinted Lexan paneling and custom padded seats. The seats are bolted in pairs to a steel sled style system that can be wheeled in and out of the shelter for space optimization and flexibility along with easy storage.

We are extremely pleased to have been a part of the unveiling of this new beautiful stadium in downtown Ottawa, the opportunity to work with FIFA, The Canadian Soccer Association, the Ottawa Sports & Entertainment Group, the Ottawa Fury FC and the Ottawa RedBlacks.
