Managing a modern athletic facility, from a municipal park to a university complex, involves constant risk management. Errant balls are an inevitable part of sports, but the damage or injury they cause doesn’t have to be. This is where custom protection netting becomes one of the most critical safety and liability-management features you can install. For athletic directors, facility managers, and contractors, it’s the most reliable way to ensure spectator safety, protect adjacent property, and keep the game safely contained.
