More about boarding
Boarding makes a sports field more compact, faster and more intensively used. Because the ball stays in play more often, a dynamic style of play is created that suits football, panna, hockey, urban sports and multifunctional sports locations well. Boarding pitches are widely used in public spaces, on school playgrounds, at sports clubs, events, campsites and sports halls.
W&H Sports supplies boarding systems in various versions. Depending on the situation, you can choose fixed boarding in ground sockets, mobile boarding for temporary use or hockey boarding for specific hockey applications. Customisation is also possible, for example in dimensions, colour, panel material, goals, ball catchers, access gates, advertising expressions and combination with a sports floor or artificial turf pitch. This creates a boarding pitch that suits the sport, the users and the surroundings.
Are you looking for boarding for a boarding pitch, panna pitch, soccer court or multicourt? Then it is important to determine in advance how the field will be used. A public panna pitch often requires a different design than a temporary event court or a sports field at a club.
W&H Sports supplies various types of boarding systems for public spaces, sports clubs, schools, events and sports halls. We help think through the right dimensions, choice of material, surface, goals, access, ball catchers and any additional options.
Mobile boarding is suitable for locations where flexibility is important. The boarding can be placed temporarily, moved or used at different locations. This makes mobile boarding interesting for events, tournaments, clinics, temporary sports areas and municipalities that want to offer sport in multiple places.
A mobile boarding pitch can be tailored to the desired sport, available space and duration of use. Combinations with sports floors, goals or other furnishing materials are also possible.
Fixed boarding is often used on permanent sports fields, panna pitches, school playgrounds, sports parks and public sports locations. The boarding is usually placed in ground sockets or on a fixed structure, creating a stable and long-lasting solution.
This version is suitable for intensive use and can be fitted with various panel materials, goals, ball catchers, access gates and possibly advertising expressions. This creates a boarding pitch that can withstand daily use and matches the appearance of the location.
Hockey boarding is used around hockey pitches and hockey-focused sports locations. Boarding helps to speed up the game, keep the ball better within the playing area and make training forms more dynamic. Hockey boarding can also be a suitable solution for multifunctional fields where hockey is part of the use.
W&H Sports helps think through the right version, height, placement and combination with other field equipment. This allows hockey boarding to be tailored to training, match formats or recreational use.
Boarding is widely used for football, panna and soccer courts. Because of the enclosure, the ball stays in play more often, resulting in a higher pace and players remaining continuously involved. This makes boarding pitches popular in residential areas, on school playgrounds, at sports clubs and at urban sports locations.
Depending on the location, a boarding pitch can be equipped with small goals, ball catchers, access gates, sports flooring, artificial turf or additional sports facilities.
Not every location requires the same dimensions or version. That is why boarding pitches can be custom assembled. Think of specific field dimensions, colours, panel materials, goals, entrance gates, ball catchers or integration with other sports materials such as basketball posts or volleyball posts.
The appearance can also be tailored to the surroundings. Boarding elements can, for example, be fitted with stickers, sponsor expressions or branding.
The boarding elements from W&H Sports can be made of galvanised steel or aluminium. Various panel materials are possible for the infill, such as Thepa sports boards, polycarbonate panels, plywood and sandwich panels.
The choice of material depends on the location, use, desired appearance and degree of load-bearing capacity. For public spaces, robustness is important, while for events, mobility and quick installation may play a bigger role.
Ball catchers can be added to boarding pitches to keep balls better within the playing area. This is especially practical in locations where surrounding roads, buildings, parking areas or other users need to be protected.
Ball catchers can contribute to safety, ease of use and less nuisance. Depending on the sport and location, the right height, length and version can be considered.
Boarding elements are suitable for advertising expressions, sponsor boards and branding. This makes them interesting for sports clubs, events and commercial sports locations. Sponsor expressions can be applied to the panels and provide extra visibility around the field.
For clubs, this can also be a way to generate sponsorship income. W&H Sports is happy to think along about the possibilities for stickers and finishing.
Boarding can also be used around multicourts. Multiple sports can then be combined on one field, such as football, hockey, basketball, volleyball or other forms of play. The boarding keeps the field clear and gives the sports area a clear boundary.
In combination with a modular sports floor, artificial turf or other surface, a multicourt can be set up for schools, sports parks, public spaces or recreational locations.
For boarding pitches, proper assembly is important for safety, stability and ease of use. The right placement depends on the type of boarding, the surface, the use and the desired finish. Fixed boarding requires different installation than mobile boarding.
W&H Sports can play a role in the supply, placement and installation of boarding systems. This ensures that the boarding pitch is realised carefully and tailored to the location.
