Planning & compliance
Much of your equipment might not meet current NFHS, USATF, or NCAA rules
The rules spell out dimensions and specs, and the host school is responsible for meeting them. For example, a cage put in twenty years ago can still be standing strong and no longer meet the current spec.
- Throwing cages and rings, checked against the events you host
- Landing system dimensions for pole vault and high jump
- Sand pits, covers, and hurdles
- Ground sleeves, anchors, and other fixed hardware
Measure first, then order
Wrong dimensions are the most common reason an item gets ordered incorrectly. Sand pit covers alone come in nine lengths. Measure once with us on the phone and you won’t run into it.
- Pit opening, apron, and the clearance around it
- Circle diameter and cage gate layout
- Runway length and lane width
- Where your existing sleeves and anchors are
Co-op contracts and your district
Gill has cooperative purchasing contracts. For many districts that means no competitive bidding at all, which is usually the slowest part of buying.
- Contract number on every quote
- Works with your district’s purchasing portal
- Often removes the three-bid requirement
- The details your buyer will ask for
Getting it delivered and installed
A cage or shelter shows up on pallets, by freight truck, whenever the carrier schedules it. Planning for that early is the difference between installing it in a week and waiting all season.
- Shipping options to fit your order
- Delivery timed around your season
- Who needs to be there to receive it
- We handle any damage claims
