2. Made in the USA
SportsPlay manufactures the majority of its products right here in the United States at its facility in St. Louis, Missouri.

3. Safety First, Always
Kids play hard—SportsPlay makes sure they play safe. Every product is designed with compliance in mind, meeting national standards from organizations like ASTM International and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). They also offer safety surfacing options and fall zone planning assistance, because a great playground doesn’t just look good—it protects the people who use it.
4. Customization & Turnkey Support
No two play spaces are exactly alike. That’s why SportsPlay offers custom configurations, color selections, and site-specific planning to help clients get exactly what they need. Need installation help? No problem—SportsPlay works with certified installers across the country to make sure your gear goes in right the first time.
5. Built to Last
Every swing, slide, bench, and climbing wall is engineered with longevity in mind. Using durable materials like powder-coated steel, heavy-duty plastics, and galvanized hardware, SportsPlay creates equipment that holds up against weather, wear, and the occasional overenthusiastic game of tag.
From small-town playgrounds to sprawling athletic parks, SportsPlay helps bring people together through movement, laughter, and shared experience. They understand that outdoor spaces aren’t just about equipment—they’re about engagement. That’s why their catalog includes equipment for people of all ages and abilities, fostering inclusive environments where everyone gets a chance to join in the fun.
So whether you’re dreaming up your community’s next great playground, building a neighborhood park, or upgrading your school’s sports complex, SportsPlay has the equipment and expertise to bring your vision to life—and keep it standing strong for years to come.
Because when kids are racing for the monkey bars, or parents are cheering from the bleachers, the last thing you want to worry about is whether the equipment can handle it. (Spoiler: It can.)
