Indoor Sleeved / Removable Posts
Indoor post pathway coordinated with the ATHREN or existing floor, floor sleeve and subfloor / slab interface before the surface is completed.
Exact post + sleeve evidence
NETBALL EQUIPMENT · TECHNICAL CENTRE
LUTHVAR NETBALL · TECHNICAL CENTRE
Choose the post system around the floor or foundation interface before choosing the exact model.
One public technical workspace for indoor and outdoor posts, sleeves, rings, nets, padding, benches, officials systems, storage and FÍSVOR. Indoor sprung-floor and outdoor foundation interfaces are treated as mandatory project gates because the support condition changes the equipment pathway.
08equipment families · one evidence workflow
EQUIPMENT FAMILIES
Eight controlled Netball pathways.
The centre separates indoor and outdoor post systems before bringing rings, protection, benches, storage and match control into the same technical workflow.
Outdoor Sleeved / Fixed Posts
Outdoor school, club and community pathway using ground sleeves, footings or fixed supports coordinated with the court base, drainage and surface.
Foundation + environment review
Portable / Training Posts
Temporary or teaching pathway where permanent post interfaces are unsuitable and movement, stability and supervision need to be controlled.
Stability + safe operating method
Rings + Nets
Matched ring and net package tied to the selected post, height, projection, connection detail and replacement-parts pathway.
Exact construction + approval status
Goalpost Padding + Protection
Protective system matched to the post profile, playing environment, attachment method and replacement / cleaning requirements.
Exact fit + material evidence
Benches + Officials / Scorer Systems
Team benches, umpire and official positions, scorer table and courtside support equipment coordinated outside the active playing envelope.
Event layout + venue operation
Storage + Changeover Systems
Storage bays and handling routes for posts, pads, balls, benches and shared-hall equipment across school, club and arena modes.
Project handling plan
FÍSVOR Scoring + Match Control
Scoreboard, match control, scorer interface, repeaters and main displays coordinated separately from the physical post approval pathway.
Protocol + product evidence separate
TECHNICAL SELECTION MATRIX
Match the post pathway to the surface, floor build-up and venue operating model first.
The matrix separates school, club, competition and arena pathways while keeping exact post, ring and match-control evidence tied to the systems that will actually be supplied.

EVIDENCE GATE
From court planning to exact Netball equipment release.
The public pathway narrows the technical family. Exact equipment is released only after the playing envelope, support condition, operating method and event evidence are matched to the real project.
Court + playing envelope
Freeze court, surround, bench zone and spectator edge before locating equipment interfaces.
Surface / floor + post interface
Confirm outdoor base / footing or indoor sprung-floor sleeve and subfloor detail before product release.
Operating + changeover method
Confirm removable, fixed or portable posts, shared-sport use, movement route, storage and supervision.
Exact equipment evidence
Match posts, rings, padding, benches and scorer systems to the exact competition or venue pathway.
FÍSVOR + handover
Close power/data, match control, installation scope, testing, documentation and destination requirements.
SUPPORT + VENUE INTERFACES
Indoor and outdoor Netball use the same sport geometry but different support conditions.
The post pathway changes with a sprung timber arena floor, resilient multi-sport floor, outdoor slab / base or shared school court. Those interfaces should be closed before exact equipment is released.
Sprung-floor sleeve detail
Coordinate sleeve depth, subfloor / slab support, floor movement, finished-surface tolerance and removable cap detail with the selected indoor floor system.
Foundation + drainage
Coordinate footing or sleeve detail, court base, drainage, corrosion environment and finished-surface relationship before the post location is fixed.
Teams + officials + scorer
Keep benches, officials and scorer systems coordinated beyond the active field-of-play envelope while preserving sightlines and circulation.
Storage + changeover
Where Netball shares with Basketball or other sports, define post removal, floor caps, equipment parking and protected storage before daily changeover is relied upon.
QUOTE-RELEASE CHECKLIST
What Apollo needs before exact Netball equipment is quoted.
Enough information is needed to avoid selecting a post system that conflicts with the floor, foundation, run-off, bench zone or shared-court operating model.
01
Project use level and intended competition / event pathway
02
Indoor or outdoor court and destination environment
03
Court plan showing surround, bench / officials zone and spectator edge
04
Indoor floor build-up / slab information or outdoor base / footing information
05
Sleeved, fixed, removable, portable or recommendation-required post pathway
06
Required ring, net and padding configuration
07
Team benches, officials / scorer and FÍSVOR requirements
08
Post / equipment storage location and shared-sport changeover needs
09
Programme, destination and installation responsibility
Competition suitability is not a family-level claim.
A professional-looking post, ring or padding system is not automatically suitable for a named World Netball event because another similar product is accepted. Exact current evidence is checked against the system that will actually be supplied.
NEXT STEP
Move from the Technical Centre into the complete Netball arena brief.
The matrix narrows the equipment family. The Arena Brief adds court and surround, floor, post strategy, bench zone, FÍSVOR, spectators, storage and shared-sport use so Apollo can move into exact controlled selection.
