In the last ten years the Sivers Companies have applied development and construction techniques it has used for decades towards the development of more than 300,000 sf of sports training and tournament facilities.
The refocusing of this knowledge has yielded a number of buildings that benefit from economical and efficient construction. This development strategy utilizes high-performance facilities (which exploit the construction technology) to optimize operation and maintenance.
These athletic projects represent a significant design breakthrough with a simple steel and concrete shell offering a flexible, cost-effective platform for premium quality user-oriented athletic fixtures. The successful operation of the sports facilities requires the careful integration of the fixtures, furniture and equipment (FF&E) into the unstructured interior space; thus, achieving the operational goal of a world-class facility available at a competitive price. DW Sivers Co. and its associates can bring this approach to your community.
Our development partners for athletic fixtures: The Hoop USA Inc. (Suspended Floor, Basketball , Cafe), Riverplace Associates (Volleyball, Fitness, Point of Sale, Locker Rooms) and Creative Gymnastics (Gymnastics, Child Care) all have the first-hand experience and the knowledge necessary to mold the interior space into a seamless environment for membership activities and successful programs.
Packaging the development with our management and operations team has brought sound economic returns. Traditionally, this combination of expertise allows the team to produce economic returns for the land that are normally unattainable for this type of use.
The partnership of DW Sivers Co., Riverplace Associates, and The Hoop has resulted in nationwide recognition. Together, the partnership has successfully developed, and currently operates three facilities specializing in basketball.
Additionally, the Sivers Company has developed a number of other athletic facilities. These projects include a build-to-suit training and competition facility for Creative Gymnastics, and a family-oriented full-service athletic club in partnership with Riverplace Athletic Club Inc.
The Hoop's facilities incorporate state-of-the-art design and technology to provide the optimum environment for leagues, tournaments, clinics, and open play. The flexibility that is inherent in a large clearspan building combined with the high-quality suspended maple flooring allows the building to lend itself to a variety of activities.
Cities throughout the country are beginning to realize that the fostering of community that occurs in team sports makes it advantageous to pursue this type of program in an urban environment. The Hoop's operational mission also means economic gains to the City. The scheduling of volleyball and basketball tournaments have been proven to have a multiplier effect that has benefits to the business community. Local businesses such as hotels and restaurants as well as the City's image -as a destination for business and recreation- are positively effected from the events.
Through years of experience, DW Sivers Company has established a comprehensive package for sports facility development. We are looking forward to applying that experience and expertise to new opportunities.
