The blow of a bat, the roar of the crowd, the dash of the soccer ball, the "swish" of the basketball...these are all sounds that will create a smile to any sports addict's face (whether it's little league, high school, college or professional).
Visualize, however, that you listen to these sounds while standing up (or worse yet, sitting on the itchy grass!). No matter which sport you enjoy most, no game takes less than an hour - and no one wants to stand, or sit on grass, for an hour or more!

Having quality bleachers is essential to creating a top notch athletic field, and ensuring more people attend your games (with their pockets full of entrance fee and snack money!). The decision of which bleachers to get seems daunting, but it doesn't need to be.
Once upon a time, bleachers used to be made of wooden boards which, being left exposed and open to the elements were washed-out by the sun - hence the name, which has been in use since the early 1900's.
For genuine team spirit, most recent bleachers are now created from steel or aluminum, and several can be made-to-order with colored seating. There are distinct designs to pick from, depending on your needs. Aluminon Tip n' Roll bleachers are idyllic for transitory seating especially for indoor seating, or small spaces, since they are easily turned over their swivel casters for movement, permitting them to be kept quickly and easily. Rubber foot pads are also included, ensuring floors are protected from scratching.
Non-elevated bleachers sit lower from the ground for supplementary safety, and are smaller in size, making them ideal for smaller athletic fields. Available with 3, 4 or 5 rows, these bleachers are still large enough to seat up to 80 sports fans! With the adding up of the transport kit, portable non-elevated models are also a great alternative, these 5 or 10 row bleachers can be moved with no trouble across grass, and can seat up to 160 people.
For football or soccer fields, where larger seating is needed, elevated bleachers are the ideal solution. These seating systems include guardrails, aisles with handrails, entry stairs, and aluminum seat, foot and riser planks, besides a number of elevation heights. They are designed to seat up to 500 people (or more!) depending on your needs.
It is always possible to custom design and fabricate distinct sizes and arrangements to suit seating specifications and site restraints. When ordering bleachers, it is important to check local requirements for such things as aisles, guardrails, ADA, or other conditions. Before getting any bleachers, check building codes, as building codes differ by year written and by issuing group.
