Sportspace - Model 365 -All Weather Sports Canopy Structure
With up to 30% of all available playing time in the UK lost due to bad weather or poor light conditions, the benefits that covered and floodlit all-weather sports facilities can bring to our communities is well understood! The right investment in covered sports areas can provide inspirational shade and shelter for generations to come, while incremental revenue and operational savings realised upon completion provide significant financial offset over time.
Sportspace365™ all-weather sports canopies are permanent architectural structures designed to provide outstanding performance, aesthetic beauty and durability over the long term backed by a comprehensive manufacturer’s warranty. Sportspace365™ PVC tensile membrane cover is tensioned over the steel framework through an alloy extrusion system, offering unrivalled cost efficiency in construction and operational maintenance for large-scale covered MUGA space.
Offering a superior playing experience to many enclosed alternatives, Sportspace365™ is an open ventilating structure with dry, UV-protected and well-lit courts, having air flow and temperatures in accord with the external environment. There is also the option of removable mesh sides to keep out the wind and rain without allowing stale air and condensation to build up. Developed over decades of covered space projects, our global partnership is dedicated to the provision of year-round, all-weather playing environments that encourage people of all ages into sporting activities for their fitness and wellbeing.
However, the potential use of Sportspace365™ structures is not restricted to sports canopies as they are also suitable as canopies for schools – for example, to provide playground shelter – and also commercial canopies.
Sportspace365™ offers a superior playing experience to many enclosed alternatives as an open ventilating structure with air flow and temperatures in accord with the external environment. The option of removable mesh sides keep out the wind and rain without allowing stale air and condensation to build up. Soft curve, one-piece membranes with minimal supporting steelwork provides a modern yet unobtrusive look to break the hard surfaces of conventional materials. A simpler planning process is possible due to the minimal impact of the canopy structure on views and floodplain compared to traditional buildings and air-supported designs.
With available playing space at a premium for many inner-city sporting facilities, Sportspace365™ vertical column design delivers a compact canopy footprint and the ability to engineer dimensions to accommodate most sport types. By locating our structural columns on piled foundations just outside court perimeters, Sportspace365™ is engineered for installation over existing playing areas with minimal disruption; avoiding the escalating construction and resurfacing costs often associated with covered court projects.
