What Are the Facilities and Equipment in Track and Field?

There are a few different types of surfacing that we can use when installing track and field events facilities, each of which are approved by IAAF for track and field competition performance standards and safety.

We use the two main surface types for sport tracks. Long jump tracks, high jump, and triple jump areas are Multisport synthetic turf and polymeric rubber.

The Multisport surface type is most commonly chosen for schools because it’s versatile and soft, so children’s joints will be protected when running.

Professional UK athletics clubs will usually choose the polymeric specification because this is better suited to competitive events and high training standards.

Some schools compact athletics facilities are installed, and these have several different features which allow them to be versatile and let students try a range of sports.

These will be made up of different components, for example, a small-sized long jump track and pit, a high jump fan and a jogging circuit around the perimeter.

Organisations like primary schools, secondary schools and public leisure centres often have these track&field surfaces installed for use by various individuals, including small children, disabled people, and anyone else who wants to get involved in sports.

Athletic Surface Installers Near Me

Our team of athletic surface installers have worked in many schools to create versatile and effective track and field events facilities. The construction process for a Multisport synthetic surface will begin with excavating the desired area to the right shape and dimensions, for example, a jump track with sandpit, high jump semi-circle, running track, or surfaces for triple jump.

We will then install a stone sub base to create a stable foundation, and we will lay the synthetic carpet on top in the chosen colours. For the polymeric specification, the process is similar. However, we will install a layer of macadam on top of the stone, and we will then apply the rubber crumb mixture to this.
