Founded in 1999, Institutional Sports Equipment helps schools, churches, community centers, and other organizations find the best sports equipment to meet their unique needs. Specializing in commercial-grade products, including wall padding, basketball and volleyball equipment, bleachers, goals, and more, Institutional Sports Equipment seeks to find clients equipment that will fit the bill without breaking the bank. With colder weather making its way into states across the country, owner Tom Nicotera believes this is the optimal time for facilities managers to evaluate the condition of indoor sports equipment and repair or replace it as needed.
Nicotera began his own journey into sporting equipment when his church asked him to upgrade the existing equipment in the multi-purpose room. A year later, he repeated the process for his sister’s church, followed by three more organizations in North Carolina. After completing these projects, Nicotera realized many organizations wanted high-quality wall padding and sports equipment, but few knew where or how to acquire it. He now uses his expertise to fill that knowledge gap and assist others in wisely spending church and school funding to support sporting activities.
“If you’ve never done it before, finding the right basketball system for your rec center or volleyball net for the school gym can be overwhelming,” said Nicotera. “I have been helping clients find the best equipment options for their needs and budget for 25 years. In that time, I have found the best manufacturers and helped clients navigate a myriad of unique situations to find a solution that works for them.”
Although the official start of winter is still around the corner, cold temperatures are becoming more common nationwide. Indoor sports at schools, including basketball and volleyball, will be starting soon. The public will also be seeking ways to play their favorite sports indoors when it is too cold to go outside.
“Sports equipment may not be top of mind when it’s cold outside,” remarked Nicotera, “but now is the perfect time to upgrade your indoor equipment. For facilities that have equipment, I recommend checking hoops, nets, and indoor wall padding before the basketball season starts. If the fabric has rips or tears or the backboard is loose, it may not perform well. Orders placed now for new equipment usually have a quick turnaround time to minimize facility downtime for players and students.”
