NCAA RULE CHANGES Deadlines for NCAA Fencing Rules Changes! ​ In 2017 the NCAA will continue implementing major changes to rules regarding fencing for collegiate softball fields. (See this link to the NCAA's website ). That means many softball outfield fences and dugout protection fences will need to be modified, installed or replaced to meet the new regulations criteria. The three major changes being implemented: ​ ​ SPECTO® Fencing Systems by Grand Slam Safety, LLC exceed the new NCAA regulations AND are the safest alternative to chain-link or other commercial options. With patented technology, SPECTO® allows for safe interactions between athletes and fencing by absorbing player impact with a cradling effect guaranteed to reduce injuries. SPECTO® Fencing Systems can also be used as baseline fencing and dugout protection to ensure safety for all players and spectators. SPECTO® mesh panels are extremely durable and composed of see-through, vinyl-coated woven polyester mesh, which allows excellent visibility from dugouts and spectator viewing areas. If you are looking to be compliant and provide the safest outfield fence for your players we'd be happy to help. Give us a call or email anytime to discuss the options for your facility.

FOUNDATION OPTIONS Two Fence Foundation Options for Greater Flexibility Under every great SPECTO fence is a great foundation. Grand Slam Safety, LLC will not only design a fence to your needs but, also offers fence foundation options, ​in partnership with IFS - Modern Pile Technologies , that provide a superior foundation for decades of hassle free use. This is athletic fence installation made easy and on your terms. ​ Each support pole and foul pole is anchored firmly into the ground by one of two methods. ​ (Many of our SPECTO Indoor Field Containment Systems can use existing structural supports instead of creating new foundation anchors.) REQUEST QUOTE Helical Shallow Foundations These premium fence post foundations are installed quickly, without damaging the sod or turf field. No need to dig ugly holes. No waiting for concrete to cure. These unique, helical-style fence post foundations screw directly into the ground, providing instant support for SPECTO Sport Fencing. They can even be installed indoors or limited access areas. Foundations are hidden underground during the offseason to accommodate multi-purpose sport fields. These long-lasting, galvanized foundations can also be unscrewed and reinstalled, when field fences need to be moved or redesigned. Grand Slam Safety has partnered with IFS - Modern Pile Technologies to provide fencing foundations specifically engineered to provide superior lateral support — ideal for our high-impact fencing solutions. Install your SPECTO Sport Fence faster, with less mess, and more support using helical shallow foundations. Concrete Foundations ​ Concrete foundations are easily installed by a contractor or your grounds crew. These foundations require steel and PVC sleeves to be embedded in the the concrete to accept the support poles which hold up the fence. Concrete foundation foul pole installation can have either a sleeved or flanged foot, the sleeve offers faster install and removal, but does not allow any adjustment if foundation shifts. The flanged foot allows adjustment to ensure foul pole is plumb. We recommend letting concrete fence foundation option cure 2-3 weeks before erecting your fencing system. Turf Inserts When support posts are removed, synthetic turf inserts can be placed in each post hole.

BUILDING A SPORTS FACILITY CHECKLIST Contact Us To Discuss Your Facility STARTING A SPORTS COMPLEX Planning an athletics facility can seem like a challenging task because there are so many things to consider. At Grand Slam Safety, we are happy to help you look at things from the very beginning to the completion of the project. Let's break it down into the main parts so you can get started. 1. Determine Which Sports Will Be Played Do you need basketball courts, baseball fields or soccer fields? For which age groups? Different age groups will often have a different field or court size. Do you need a gymnasium that can host multiple different sports? In order to plan the size of each area, you'll have to decide on the sport and age group you'd like to accommodate. Tight on space? Think about multiuse areas that can be divided or repurposed for different sports . 2. Decide on Flooring Once you know which courts and fields you need, you can choose your facility's flooring. Consider the different hardwood or synthetic surface options for your court, keeping in mind the surface hardness as well as safety requirements and budget. For fields, determine which type of turf you'll need. Think about what floor you want for the non-sporting areas, too. Grand Slam Safety can offer you great deals on turf products for your facility. INDOOR FACILITY ADVICE Call 315-301-4039 3. Athletic Facility Layout - Consider Support Areas You need more than a court to host a game. Now that you know which sports you want to host and what type of courts and fields you'll need, figure out which support areas are needed. You might include: Locker rooms. Equipment closets. Laundry facilities. Offices. An issue area for gear. An athletic trainer's room that is set up for first aid. Bathrooms for spectators. A box office for tickets. Many facilities also offer a snack or juice bar. Sports Complex_0028_nologo Sports Complex_0012_nologo_edited batting cage3 Sports Complex_0028_nologo 1/6 6. Design With Sanitation in Mind Hosting athletic events means there will be many people in your facility, and many of them will be breaking a sweat and breathing heavily. It's important to consider airflow and ease of sanitation in your design. Use hard, nonporous surfaces or antimicrobial-treated laminates. Make sure fixtures can be moved when it's time to clean them. 4. Find Space for Spectators Now it's time to think about where the spectators will be. Where can the bleachers go? Will the spectators be in any danger of getting hit with loose balls or equipment? There is no need to worry about spectator safety if you are using our SPECTO® Perimeter Fencing System . Set aside areas by each court for the spectators, and then consider if you will need netting. 5. Consider Netting, Fencing and Gym Dividers Netting is useful for more than just protecting spectators. You can also utilize netting , fencing or gym dividers to optimize your space and even host multiple games at once. Add or remove court dividers to change the layout of your space, allowing for more or different sports to be played at different times. Fencing or netting can also protect the rest of your facility, such as vending machines, water fountains or even scoreboards. 8. Make an Equipment List Before opening your sports facility, you'll need to acquire some equipment. Grand Slam Safety can meet all your sporting supply needs . Depending on the sports you want to host, you might need the following: Bleachers Benches Scoreboards Basketball hoops Volleyball nets Baseball plates Soccer goals Uniforms Helmets Balls 7. Plan Lighting You'll need to have a well-lit facility that has flexibility for the different events you want to host. Think about utilizing natural light sources, like skylights and windows.

You'll experience better ball containment, enhanced player safety and excellent visibility for an improved spectator experience.

View Indoor Softball Netting & Fencing Softball Field Fencing & Netting ​ Our softball outfield fences provide a safer alternative to chain link and other harder, less forgiving fencing materials. Our innovative mesh cradles players as they crash into the barrier, which cushions the blow and reduces the risk of injury. The transparency provides an obstruction-free view for spectators. Pair this mesh with our baseline fencing to create a complete system that protects the entire field. Our outdoor softball fencing is also portable, enabling you to easily reconfigure your field as needed. Softball Field Fencing & Netting Softball Backstops ​ Sitting behind the backstop provides spectators with an excellent view of the playing field, but it also makes them more vulnerable to injuries from foul balls and spinning bats that inadvertently fly out of players' hands. Our tie-back and tensioned mesh backstop netting solutions will keep fans safer and protect catchers and infielders approaching the stands while pursuing a foul pop-up. The tensioned-mesh version can achieve a width of 60 feet, which extends well beyond the backstop for additional safety.

If you run an indoor facility, we have drop-down/retractable batting cages that are ideal for multi-use complexes, as well as stationary models that attach to walls for a more permanent solution. If your team practices in the open air, we can provide weather- and UV-resistant outdoor batting cages that will fit just about anywhere. The recessed poles help to prevent rebound from batted balls, an important safety feature for soft toss areas.

BENEFITS OF INDOOR FOOTBALL FENCING When you partner with us, you'll gain a host of benefits from our products that directly affect your athletes, spectators and workers. Some of these benefits include: Increased safety: When playing football indoors, building structures and fences can increase the risk of injury, as players running full speed can result in crashes and nasty collisions. However, even playing in a confined space, those things can become a thing of the past with SPECTO® fencing. Sturdy, tensioned mesh catches and cradles players who impact the fence, and protects them from hitting any hard surface - even when multiple players impact at the same point. Better ball containment: One wild throw from the quarterback or booming kick from the punter is all it takes to disrupt the flow of a game or practice in an adjoining space. You can eliminate those concerns with our netting and fencing, which has full floor-to-ceiling capabilities. You'll be able to effectively contain your designated space, which keeps the action on the field while allowing you to hold multiple games or drills for tournaments, camps, and leagues, or just a busy day at your facility. Improved spectator experiences: Fans, coaches and scouts will often take in games and practices, but sometimes it can be hard to do so up close without running the risk of interrupting the action. SPECTO® fencing and netting will not only keep them safe from stray balls and runaway linebackers, but the transparent mesh allows for optimal viewing. ​ Added convenience for maintenance: Maintaining flexibility in most sports complexes is a must due to how omnipresent most sports are. We design our football fencing and netting with that in mind. You can place the SPECTO® tensioned system within 30 inches of any structure or adjoining field to maximize space. If needed, SPECTO® mesh fencing panels can be changed out in less than 20 minutes. Tracked netting can be moved to the side or reconfigured with our tracked system. The multifaceted systems allow for convenient storage and transport. CONTACT GRAND SLAM SAFETY FOR YOUR FOOTBALL FENCING NEEDS Reach out to us now to discover the options we can offer you.

I was at my son’s varsity game and a ball was hit over the right fielders head. He ran full speed and caught the ball and immediately hit the fence. He was running full speed and just bounced off the fence without a scratch. If it was a chain link or other type of fence that fell down he would have gotten seriously hurt. Other parents at the game were amazed he didn’t get hurt. I was impressed by the way the fence looked when it was installed but even more impressed by how safe it is."

INDOOR BATTING CAGES REQUEST A QUOTE BASEBALL BATTING CAGE NETTING Athletes committed to greatness don’t limit their training days to when the weather’s nice and sunny — instead, they maintain a type of year-round dedication that requires the ideal equipment and space. Indoor batting cages allow softball and baseball players to practice all year round to keep their skills and techniques sharp for next season. When you’re ready to advance your facility with an indoor batting cage setup, Grand Slam Safety is here to help maximize your playable indoor field space.

Indoor batting cage systems are invaluable for athletes of all ages and experience levels. ​ You can incorporate indoor batting cages into an area’s layout or rely on portable options that are easy to set up and deconstruct when necessary. Both the retractable and stationary netting options give you the flexibility and freedom to host other events or remain dedicated to batting practices. REQUEST A QUOTE Types of Indoor Batting Cages & Indoor Batting Tunnels Indoor Vertical Lift Batting Cages VISTA indoor batting cages are great for multi-use facilities if you want to maximize your space and offer training in a full cage. After a batting session is over, you can raise the netting to restore the area for other activities like soccer games, field hockey practices and ultimate frisbee tournaments. Stationary Batting Cages Stationary batting cages are permanent indoor fixtures that attach to your walls and surrounding areas. The durable netting can create batting cages and tunnels for indoor baseball facilities and other recreational activities. Grand Slam's stationary batting cages use a sleeved pole system that allow you to have a free standing netted batting cage. This batting cage system is suspended from poles that fit into sleeves in the floor surface, much like poles for an in-floor volleyball net system. You can disassemble and store the system when necessary, which takes just a few minutes with the work of two or more people. These types of batting cages are useful in dome athletic facilities or other building structures where suspending a cage is not feasible. Custom Batting Cages Custom batting cages are ideal when you need a full solution that matches your precise demands. Our professionals can build tailored batting cages to your specifications for indoor sports sites. Customization allows you to be a part of the process by explaining what will fit best with your facility. ​ Our team will take your requests into account and construct an enclosure that parallels the necessary dimensions of your facility — baseball netting that fits perfectly into your existing design. ​ Whether you need a retractable, stationary or customizable portable indoor batting cage system, together we can find a solution that works with your space. REQUEST A QUOTE INDOOR BATTING CAGE DESIGN​ Deciding on your indoor batting cage dimensions for softball & baseball can depend on the size of space you have available, your budget and the experience level and size of the players you accommodate. The typical size of a batting cage net is 70 feet long by 14 feet wide by 12 feet high. This standard allows enough room for players to avoid creating back-swing contact with the netting. When it comes to an athlete’s size, the distance between the pitcher’s mound and home plate can differ. For example, various mound-to-plate distances include 38, 44, 54 and about 60 feet, starting at a range for beginners up to professionals: Batting cage length: The standard length for an indoor batting cage is 70 feet. It’s an adequate amount of space for the pitcher to store equipment such as portable mounds, ball machines and ball carts. The length also allows for plenty of room between the pitcher and batter, according to particular regulations for different age groups. Batting cage width: Indoor baseball netting has a standard width between 12 and 14 feet. If a coach works with younger children, a 12-foot wide tunnel is ideal, although bat lengths and wing-spans can vary between kids. In other cases, a 14-foot wide cage is more common and comfortable for athletes of all sizes. Batting cage height: The typical height of batting netting is 12 feet. About one foot of extra mesh is necessary to sag on the ground to contain stray balls. So, 11 feet is available as playable height. The taller the cage, the better, as an athlete’s experience increases. If you opt for an indoor batting cage design that has a shorter netting height, it can work in most situations. But be aware that shorter cages can reduce ball flight tracking for coaches dedicated to improving their players' technique. The mesh will knock down the ball quicker, preventing the player from knowing where to focus his or her hitting. Lower cage heights can also reduce the lifespan of the netting because of its proximity to the bat and ball. Tunnels with shorter lengths may be ideal for coaches who want to work on soft-tossing for a player’s hand-eye coordination. The space is better for focusing on specific techniques and can also save money. However, a larger cage is better for players to grow into. Teams can also use the extra space to store their equipment. Wider and taller batting cages allow players to track their ball flights more efficiently, helping them improve their batting.

Proper batting cage installation and setup is crucial. When you rely on the experts for your baseball batting cage nets, you receive benefits such as: Tensioned bottom: Decrease the amount of excess slack within a cage’s netting to eliminate tripping, while also preventing balls from rolling underneath. Dividing net: Transform your softball or baseball batting cages into one or two areas to maximize your available space. A removable center divider can boost practicing capabilities without sacrificing safety. Open weave: The open weave material offers incredible visibility for coaches, teammates, spectators and parents who want to watch the action inside the cage. Recessed pole: When a bat comes in contact with a pitched ball, the bat sends it flying into the outfield, or batting cage, with a lot of strength behind it. To keep everyone inside the cage safe, you can rely on recessed poles, in our stationary cages, to reduce the rebound effect of batted balls. Unique soft toss area: The design of your cage becomes multi-functional with recessed poles that form exterior areas for athletes.
