Coach-to-Player Communication • Telcommand

Telcommand makes practices more efficient and effective through better communication. There are two basic components: the Coach’s Unit, which is a headset transmitter and the Player’s Unit, which is a receiver placed in a sleeve that’s worn on the players arm. With a press of a button or with voice activation, a coach can communicate directly to an individual player on the field, giving instructions in a normal speaking voice rather than yelling from the sidelines. The applications are almost endless – with up to 14 channels and a range of 200 yards, every position coach can be communicating and teaching their players, both starters and backups, before and after every snap of the ball.

Synthetic Turf • FieldTurf

FieldTurf is fundamentally different from all others. Stable, firm not spongy, non-abrasive and uniform in traction, the FieldTurf system is engineered to play and feel like natural grass. On FieldTurf, players perform with confidence – and never experience the accelerated fatigue and muscle/joint stress associated with lightweight, rubber-filled systems. Like blades of natural grass, FieldTurf’s fibers are soft and easy to slide on. They are surrounded and stabilized by FieldTurf’s patented, heavy fill – the “artificial earth” that so clearly sets FieldTurf apart. Composed of smooth, rounded silica sand and cryogenically frozen and smashed rubber particles, FieldTurf’s patented infill is engineered to stay “in suspension” providing years of proper biomechanics, shock absorbency and durability. A patented process of precision layering ensures infill uniformity. The result is a stable, resilient, predictable place to play – grass-like performance of the highest quality.

SpeedStation™ • Speed to Win

The SpeedStation™ facility from Speed to Win represents a major innovation in how athletes are trained; giving coaches capabilities that had only been available at expensive, off-site speed and agility facilities. With the self-contained unit, coaches and PE instructors can utilize resistance bands for change of direction drills, hip flexor and hamstring quickness drills, quad and glut explosion drills, and even upper body quickness and hand speed drills which are set up in stations that athletes use on a rotating basis. There are also eight additional stations that include a wide variety of training equipment like cones, ladders, sleds, hurdles, etc. and over one hundred different drills that are set up in the surrounding areas. The SpeedStation program includes web-based, state-of-the-art software developed specifically to help coaches identify training programs for each individual athlete, monitor and update their progress and organize and coordinate schedules with other coaches.
