SAFE SPORTS EQUIPMENT - WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT?

When choosing sports equipment for the gym, the school gym, or simply for home, most people are following the principle that it should be solid, durable and failure-free. Some people also value its versatility so that they can engage as many muscles as possible when exercising on ladders, for example. On top of all this there is also the price - sports equipment has to fulfil its tasks and also be cheap. Very often it happens that the most important issue is forgotten - exercise equipment should be, above all, safe, not endangering the health and life of users. Wondering what are the characteristics of safe sports equipment? Read our article where we discuss exactly what to consider when choosing equipment for you and others.

Almost every sport carries the risk of injury. Football is no different. It is the most popular sport not only in Poland but also in the whole world. Virtually everyone plays football - children, teenagers, adults of all ages. And although it may seem that all you need to play football is a ball and two goals, it is worth trying to make sure that the pitch is properly equipped and the equipment on it is fully safe.

Football goals differ not only in size but also in quality. It's worth knowing a few details and elements to help you make a successful purchase. Football equipment, as the football goal, consists of the following elements:

● crossbar,

● posts,

● net,

● arches,

● bottom frame,

● stays,

● mounting elements.

The crossbar and posts are to determine the light of the goal. It must be sized according to the size of the pitch and the matches played on it. The net in a soccer goal is to prevent the ball from falling outside the goal 's frame. The bottom frame, on the other hand, is responsible for the stability of the goal during play. It is worth knowing that it will look different in an enclosed sports hall than on a grass pitch. Regardless of where it is installed, however, it is worth ensuring that the football goal is well fixed and equipped with all the elements mentioned.

When organising higher level games it is worth to use certified football goals (e.g. FIFA standard).

Growing in popularity tennis is a sport where safety is also important. It requires the right sports equipment to ensure the stability of training and games. Even for a portable tennis game, it's a good idea to choose top quality equipment. In practice, this means that such a safe kit should:

● have aluminium posts,

● be equipped with a screw tensioning mechanism inside the post,

● be resistant to impact and weather conditions,

● have a very long service life,

● meet all norms and standards.

The determinants of good tennis equipment are also certifications such as ITF (International Tennis Federation). This way you can feel safe on the court.

Safe sports are not only those played outdoors or in a hall. These are also exercises you can do at home. And with the whole family! The most common sports equipment at home includes wall bars. They allow you to perform many exercises. They also help at rehabilitation. If you're thinking about equipping your home with a wall bar, then choose one that not only looks good, but most importantly is stable. Wondering what makes it safe to use?

● construction material - it must be high quality, strong wood,

● steel brackets - fixed both in the upper part of the ladder: to the beam or wall, and those mounted in the lower part: to the floor,

● clear varnish - a wall bar covered with it is much less likely to chip and deteriorate.

Regardless of the sport or exercise it is worth taking care of safe sports equipment. As you've SURELY noticed, it's not enough to provide only the bare minimum for the players. Make every effort to keep your sports equipment stable and safe. Give yourself and others that comfort with Sport-Transfer.
