Basic elements of sports hall equipment
A sports hall is a building with a compact structural form or a separate room used for sports and entertainment purposes. It consists of an area, designed for physical exercise and training, as well as conducting sports competitions, and a separate auditorium with seating. Sports hall facilities should be equipped with functional sanitary and catering facilities. The sports hall must have appropriate equipment and meet the necessary safety standards.
Safety nets, bands and mattresses
The equipment of a sports hall must first and foremost include safety and protective elements. These include protective bands, which are made of epoxy or acrylic and allow you to create an enclosed area around the sports field. Their installation system is modular, so the protective area can be of almost any size. Safety and security nets are most often made of polypropylene and have a string construction. They can be used in the function of fencing curtains, window protection or ball catches. Protective mattresses, on the other hand, provide protection for the walls and corners of the sports hall. They can also be used to protect such surfaces as poles or edges. They increase the safety of exercisers and minimize the risk of injury. Their covering is made of resistant PVC materials, and the filling is lightweight polyurethane foam. In addition to fencing curtains, acoustic panels are also worth considering. Also important are protective coverings, protecting the surface of the hall during public events.

A sports hall should also be equipped with the necessary gymnastic equipment required for various sports. Basketball baskets, volleyball nets and goals for soccer and handball are an absolute must have for any sports hall. There should also be no shortage of exercise balls and gymnastic mattresses, as well as auxiliary equipment such as running rails for hanging gymnastic wheels, rope mounting brackets and wall-mounted ladders. Freestanding gymnastic bars are also worth keeping in mind. Tennis posts and badminton racks, fixed ballet and corrective handrails, a table tennis table, floorball goals, a trestle, a gymnastics bounce and athletic hurdles will be an excellent complement. It will also be necessary to install a multimedia scoreboard. For halls where cultural events are held, lighting fixtures, a suitable sound system and mobile stage platforms should be kept in mind. Storage fixtures, transport carts and metal racks for storing small equipment may also prove useful.
