Sports Venues

Because “Game On” is meant to be cool.

Between the blistering heat, hot benches and bright glare, attending sporting events can become unpleasant and uncomfortable. Fortunately, Apollo Sunguard can help. Under our custom shade structures, temperatures can drop by up to 20 degrees. Plus, our sport shades offer added protection against foul balls, sunburn and heat-related illnesses.

Our industry-leading shade structures can be used to protect any athletic venue, court, field or stadium, no matter the size or shape. Sport shades makes outdoor events pleasant, cool, and comfortable. Plus, they reduce the risk of overheating and protect against the sun’s dangerous UV rays.

We’re proud to offer 11 colors of steel and 17 colors of fabric that block up to 96 percent of UV rays. We also have custom options and can print your team or organization logo on our fabric to enhance both the look and the comfort of your facility.

Apollo Sunguard sports shades protecting patrons at the spring training facilities of the Baltimore Orioles, Washington Nationals and Houston Astros, as well as many other sports facilities and schools. Our custom approach to shade provides each city, county, state, or national park with unlimited options to enhance any outdoor recreational area.

Shade is especially important for outdoor sports and playgrounds. Our shades can protect children from the sun’s dangerous UV rays and scorching playground equipment, which can reach more than 150 degrees in direct sunlight. We can retrofit existing playground equipment with obstacle free playground shade.

We’re proud to offer the shade industry’s leading warranty—15 years on fabric and 20 years transparency on steel.
