Play Poles: Sports Courts & Outdoor Fitness: Functional, Safe & Sun-Smart

December 1, 2025

Schools recognise the value of movement, but a courtside fall or harsh elements can diminish enjoyment. Play Poles expertly bridges functional fitness with safety by delivering tailored sports courts, shading, and outdoor fitness equipment all in one trusted package

What Sets Play Poles Apart:

Court Shading for Safety & Comfort: Installing shade sails or solid shelters over sports courts provides vital UV protection and cooler playing surfaces, encouraging active participation throughout the school year.
Wet Weather Protection: Permanent roofed shelters don’t just protect from the sun. They also provide cover from rain, allowing outdoor play, learning, assemblies, and sports to continue during wet conditions. This means more flexibility for timetables and fewer lost opportunities for outdoor learning.
Seamless Integration: Play Poles can manage court resurfacing from gravel to cement or synthetic turf, adding shade, seating, and fitness equipment as needed for a unified outdoor zone.
Optional Outdoor Fitness Add-ons: Beyond courts, schools can include durable, commercial-grade fitness installations like ellipticals, air walkers, sit-up boards, parallel bars, and more for their outdoor health spaces.
Meet Standards & Customise: All structures and installations adhere to Australian safety codes, and can be customised in design, materials to match your school’s vision.

By choosing Play Poles, schools gain robust, safe, and enjoyable sports and fitness precincts all enriched by shade and thoughtful design. Ensure student wellbeing and extend outdoor learning and play all year round.

Play Poles brings 25+ years of experience and status as a preferred supplier to the Department of Education, delivering custom, safe, and durable playground, shade, and sports solutions all to strict Australian safety and aesthetic standards.
