Equipment quantities and lists reviewed at a planning desk

Buyer guides

Equipment buyer guides

Practical planning guidance based on how equipment is actually used. These guides do not state prices, stock or brands — those are confirmed per enquiry.

Group session running on exercise mats in a shared hall

Planning a school PE equipment list

PE buying is driven by class size, storage and the number of sessions running in parallel.

Count equipment per working group, not per class — six groups of five need six sets, not thirty items.
Check the storage cupboard before ordering: trolley and bag sizes decide what a technician can move alone.
Separate consumables that wear out each term from durable items that should last several years.
List size and age-band requirements in your enquiry so specification is matched, not guessed.

Football training equipment for clubs and academies

Session structure dictates quantity: warm-up, technical drills, small-sided games and conditioning each need their own kit.

Cones and markers are used in higher volume than expected — plan for drill layouts, not a single grid.
Bibs need enough colour sets to run more than two teams at once.
Match ball sizes to the age groups you coach, and state those age bands when you enquire.
Consider transport and storage between pitches when choosing goal and mannequin formats.

Setting up a strength training floor

Floor layout, ceiling height and flooring load capacity constrain a strength setup more than the equipment list does.

Confirm floor loading and ceiling height before specifying racks or platforms.
Plan walkways and lifting zones so two users can train without crossing paths.
Weight increments matter more than total tonnage for a mixed-ability membership.
Send us your floor dimensions with your enquiry so we can check what physically fits.

Group conditioning run at the end of a training session

Agility and conditioning setups

Agility kit is quantity-sensitive and easily lost, so plan replacement cycles from the start.

Ladders, hurdles and cones are grouped by station — order in station sets.
Choose hurdle heights across a range rather than a single height.
Include storage bags or carts so sessions can be set up and cleared quickly.

Exercise mat used for floor work in a studio space

Yoga and wellness spaces

Corporate wellness rooms and studio spaces are specified by capacity, hygiene and turnover between sessions.

Mat thickness affects comfort and durability differently — state the flooring underneath.
Plan for cleaning and storage between sessions, especially in shared corporate rooms.
Blocks and straps are needed in far higher numbers than mats for mixed-ability classes.

Basketball dropping through the net on an indoor court

Basketball and indoor court practice

Court time is limited, so equipment should support several stations at once.

Ball sizes differ by age group and by indoor versus outdoor surface.
Rebounding and passing drills need duplicate kit for parallel stations.
Check court markings and fixings before specifying any portable equipment.

Start from a collection

If you are equipping a whole space rather than replacing one item, these groupings are a practical starting list. Each is adjusted to your room, group sizes and storage before it is quoted.

Home Starter

A compact set for home and apartment training spaces.

Suits: Individuals and families equipping a spare room, balcony or garage corner. Planning note: Floor protection and storage usually decide the list more than the equipment does.

PE Class

Session equipment sized for a school physical-education group.

Suits: School PE departments planning a term or a full academic year. Planning note: Quantities are built around parallel working groups and cupboard space.

Studio Floor

Shared floor equipment for studios and small fitness rooms.

Suits: Studios and small fitness rooms with shared, high-turnover equipment. Planning note: Durability and cleaning between classes matter more than headline specification.

Team Session

Squad training kit for clubs and academies.

Suits: Clubs and academies running coached squad sessions. Planning note: Colour sets, ball sizes and carry storage are specified against squad numbers.

Corporate Wellness

Practical shared equipment for workplace movement spaces.

Suits: Facilities and HR teams equipping a workplace movement room. Planning note: Peak simultaneous users, cleaning and building access drive the specification.

Before you send a list

01Count by working group or station, not by total headcount.
02Measure the storage as well as the space the equipment is used in.
03Separate consumables that wear out each term from durables that should last years.
04Note the age bands and ability range so sizes and increments are matched properly.
05Include the access route: lift dimensions, door widths, gate hours and site rules.
06State the date you are working to, and whether it is fixed or flexible.

Terms explained

RFQ: Request for quotation. A written requirement — items, quantities, location and date — that we review before issuing a priced quotation.
Station set: The quantity of equipment needed to run one drill or activity station, used instead of per-person counting for schools and clubs.
Pack count: The number of units supplied in a single pack. Team and accessory items are supplied in packs rather than singles.
Lead time: The period between an accepted quotation and delivery. Confirmed per order rather than published as a general figure.
Substitution: An alternative item proposed in writing when the specified item cannot be supplied. Requires your approval before it is applied.
Service area: The delivery addresses we have confirmed we can serve for a given order, checked before an order is accepted.
