Loughegar, Co. Westmeath and Carraroe, Co. Galway to be exact. These GAA Clubs and community centres are latest sports venues in Ireland to place their trust in the SnapSports brand. While their priority was naturally orientated towards sporting surfaces they were also very keen on having the multi activity properties to enable the hosting of concerts, local events and meetings for their members / visitors.

Sport Surface Installation & Guarantees.
Both sites took no longer than 4 days to lay the sports flooring and this also accounted for line marking 4 sports courts (Loughegar) and 4 sports courts (Carraroe). These installation times are significantly quicker when compared to traditional timber floors. While the installation times are impressive, the 12 year guarantee is also worth remembering.
Sports Floor Product & Features.
Both community centres decided on the “Indoor Bounceback” model, primarily for its multi sport and multi activity properties. The projects were finished with specifically designed sports skirting board which ensures that balls rebound off the boarding at predictable angles which is not always the case with other products. All doorways were made wheel chair friendly.

The full sportshall dimensions were 360 sqm, the school had requested contrasting vibrant colours; blue for the indoor basketball court and red for the run off areas.

Fitness Functions have recent been involved in the renovation of a timber sports floor in Colaiste Bhride, Enniscorthy.
The old timber floor was dull, marked and in need of a refurb, after a thorough sanding and application of 2 coats of sports specific lacquer we applied a complete set of new games lines and then a final top coat of lacquer was applied to finish. The line marking was applied to: 4 Badminton courts, a Five a Side court, a Basketball court and a Volleyball court.
The floor has been given a completely new lease of life and is good to go for many more years — at a fraction of the price of a new sport floor.
Please feel free to contact us for more information and costs of renovating your existing sports floor.
