More about sports and leisure

Sports and leisure are an important addition to any playground. Not every piece of equipment has to be purely focused on climbing, sliding or swinging. It is precisely sporty play elements that ensure children get acquainted with movement, cooperation and ball games in an accessible way. This makes the playground not only more fun, but also more versatile.

Within this category, W&H Play offers, among other things, equipment for ball sports. Think of target walls where children can aim, shoot and improve their coordination through play. Some equipment combines multiple functions, such as climbing and aiming in one play object. As a result, children get more play options in the same place and the available space is used efficiently.

Sporty play elements make a playground more active and varied. Children can play freely, challenge each other or come up with simple game forms together. This stimulates movement, playing together, motor skills and enjoyment in outdoor spaces.

W&H Play supplies equipment suitable for schoolyards, public playgrounds, parks, recreation areas and childcare locations. Depending on the location, consideration can be given to age group, available space, surface and desired play value.

Ball sports are recognizable, accessible and suitable for different ages. Children can aim, shoot, pass, score and come up with new game forms together. As a result, equipment for ball sports is a good addition to playgrounds where active play is central.

This subcategory includes, among other things, target walls and combination units that invite ball play. They can be used as a separate play element or as part of a larger play and movement area.

A target wall is a sporty play element in which children can aim and shoot at openings in a panel. This stimulates precision, coordination and ball skills. Target walls are suitable for schools, playgrounds and recreational locations where children can play independently or together.

Because of the simple and recognizable game principle, a target wall is accessible in use. Children immediately understand what the intention is and can vary the distance, type of ball and game rules themselves.

A climbing and target wall combines ball play with climbing. This creates a multifunctional piece of equipment on which children can not only aim and shoot, but also scramble and move. This makes the equipment suitable for playgrounds where multiple forms of play need to be combined in a compact way.

By bringing sport and climbing together, the play value is increased. Children are challenged in terms of motor skills, strength, coordination and playing together.

In schoolyards and public playgrounds, it is important that equipment can withstand intensive use. Sporty play equipment is often used by many different children and must therefore be robust, safe and clear.

W&H Play helps think through the right application of sports and leisure equipment. In doing so, we look at the available space, free zones, surface, age group and the combination with other play equipment.

Sporty play elements contribute to more than just physical movement. Children learn to cooperate, make agreements, win, lose and take each other into account. As a result, a simple ball game can stimulate a great deal of social and motor development.

By combining sport and play, a playground is created that invites children to stay active more often and for longer.

The right design depends on the target group, location and available space. A schoolyard often calls for compact and sturdy equipment, while a park or recreation area offers more space for combinations with other play and sports elements.

W&H Play is happy to think along about the design of sporty playgrounds. This creates an outdoor space where play, movement and leisure come together logically.
