Coordinating retractable nets with the building

Draw each net arrangement and the floor space available when the nets are moved. Share the supplier's support and installation requirements with the building designer.

Name the operating modes

Draw the individual-lane arrangement and every larger practice arrangement you intend to use. Show coaches, players, equipment and waiting areas in each version. Identify which activities may occur at the same time. Keep the supplier's drawing revision visible on every layout shared for review.

Ask the coaching team to review the use of each configuration. A floor that can be physically opened up still needs an activity plan suited to the intended players and training.

Get the supplier information

Identify the proposed net system, supplier and selection status. Request current planning documents for the project team. Ask the supplier and building designer to coordinate any interfaces rather than choosing attachment locations from a conceptual rendering.

Include operating controls, maintenance access and the location of stored or retracted components in the discussion. Record the information still needed before the system can be incorporated into the building documents.

Plan the changeover work

Describe who changes the layout and when. Show where machines, screens and other portable items go while the floor is rearranged. Include storage and the route equipment uses to reach it.

Request a clear division of responsibility for the shell, netting system, installation and owner equipment. Ask how changes to the lane plan will be reviewed if the building has already been designed or quoted.
