Key Considerations for Designing or Renovating Athletic Facilities

Well-designed, engineered, and constructed athletic facilities are an asset to any school. Beyond enhancing sports and physical education programs, they build community pride, are often leveraged for community and youth events, and generate revenue through ticket sales, concessions and rentals.

While some aspects of athletic facilities are not a matter of choice—such as the dimensions of a football field or tennis courts—plenty of options are available, impacting appearance, performance and safety. Therefore, school leaders, coaches and community members involved in decisions about athletic facilities should understand some critical considerations.

Our whitepaper titled Key Considerations for Designing or Renovating Athletic Facilities examines options to consider based on the experience and insights of two firms well-versed in the design of athletic facilities, SHP and The Kleingers Group.
