Cleaning and Sport Equipment storage: An Effective Yet Simple Solution For Killing Game-Changing Bacteria

Sports Equipment Storage: An Effective Yet Simple Solution For Killing Game-Changing Bacteria

sports equipment storage It’s the end of an exciting game and you’re worn out and ready for a hot, relaxing shower. You throw your still-moist hockey shirt, helmet and sports gear into your sports locker and head on to the shower room.   The easy first step to keeping your equipment from getting smelly and moldy is to get it dry. Using a PlayerStall hockey locker is a simple sports equipment storage solution for getting your gear off the floor, up in the air and keeping it dry.   The most popular drying solutions are great, but you can create your very own sports equipment cleaning solution. Here’s how:   Mix in 3/4 teaspoon of bleach in 500mL of room temperature water. This solution is powerful enough to kill the most common bacteria. Make sure not to overdo the bleach part because it can damage your fabrics.   Pour the bleach-water solution into a big, flat container or a tub, then put big items such as hockey pads to soak. You can also add the solution to when you’re washing your clothes in a washing machine. Be sure to dry it out thoroughly. Don’t put bleach directly on your uniform because it can ruin your clothes.   Disinfection must be carried out if your gear or equipment has blood on it. Here’s what you’ll need:   Pour in 3 tablespoons bleach in 5L of cold water. Put on some gloves and vigorously scrub the contaminated sections until the stain is removed. Set it in a well ventilated area until it is dry.   After your equipment has been washed, you will want to make a spray so you can quickly disinfect your equipment if you don’t have the time to thoroughly wash it. Heres how:  
  • Take a spray bottle and use 5 parts water to one part vinegar
  • Add a few drops of scented essential oil such as lemon or lavender
  • Spray all parts of your equipment and set it in a well ventilated area 
  This quick solution will kill harmful bacteria and bad smells.    Ensure your hockey equipment and gear will smell odorless by drying them using a PlayerStall Wood locker. PlayerStall offers simple and affordable sports equipment storage solutions to make it easy for you or your kids to break the habit of leaving all the sports gear in a bag, trunk or spread out all over the garage floor. Transform your mudroom into a neat and tidy area using a PlayerStall mudroom locker.   Keeping your sports equipment dry will preserve it for a lot longer and using a sports equipment storage locker is a quick and easy way to do it- Your sports equipment will thank you for it!   Head over to our website to check out all our equipment drying solutions: customsportslockers.com

Sports Lockers for your local Sports Team

Soccer Locker roomSports Lockers for your local sports team

 

Locker rooms in sports stadiums and athletic centers can be furnished with a variety of open access sports lockers. These units are designed to fully accommodate the storage of uniforms, day clothing, special athletic equipment, and valuables. All locker models share the same basic design, but their dimensions, special features, and material builds vary widely to accommodate different environments and different types of sports.

Professional sports stadiums, universities, and varsity high school athletic programs typically prefer the wooden sports locker models because they feature both an efficient storage design and a higher quality aesthetic more in keeping with an upbeat, positive, and winning attitude.

PlayerStall sports lockers feature three interior storage sections. There is a top shelf unit that creates a cubby area where players can store their helmets, gloves, shoes, water bottles, or other items that can be fit into its space.

Dressing room lockers also have a middle section that constitutes the bulk of their vertical space. This area is typically used to store uniforms and larger pieces of equipment. Our nickel polished hooks allow for day clothing to also be hung up neatly after athletes have changed into their uniforms.

PlayerStall sports lockers also have a foot locker compartment at the bottom that in many models doubles as a bench when the player needs to put on athletic footwear. This compartment is below the Lift up Seat and gives a lot of space to store many types of items inside.

 

Soccer Lockers

 

Serious soccer players need soccer lockers that will allow them to organize their uniforms and equipment. Uniforms should be kept neat and wrinkle free so the team can hit the field looking their absolute best. Both clothing and gear should be easily retrievable so players can quickly change. Players also need a place to sit when they put on their shoes or soccer boots, and they need a safe place to store valuables.

The open access, wooden stadium locker meets all of these needs. Consisting of four storage sections, it accommodates the needs of any soccer team of any age, academic affiliation, league, or professional organization.

The main storage area is designed like an open closet, complete with a coat hooks. This provides the players with sufficient room to store several practice uniforms, and special goalie jerseys and shorts if appropriate.

Soccer coaches and referees can store soccer cones here. For those teams who also order soccer tracksuits for players, this closet like area provides enough room at the bottom for a neatly folded tracksuit to be stored.

Even though many soccer teams play the game with soccer boots, there are many teams that also either practice or play official games in standard athletic shoes. It depends on the age group and nature of the soccer league as to which type of footgear is preferred. Open access wooden stadium lockers accommodate either or both preference.

At the top of the soccer locker is an open shelf which provides the player with the perfect place to store a pair of athletic shoes and a practice soccer ball. With this extra storage space at the top, the player always has a place to store shoes in an easy to reach place that is also out of the way of other gear and clothing.

Another remarkable feature of the open access stadium wooden soccer locker is the closed foot locker section at the bottom. This foot locker is the perfect size for professional soccer players to store their best pair of soccer boots. Players can store several pair of clean socks here, and they can also store several pair of shin guards. A separate pair of shin guards and socks can be stored on the top shelf for quick access if so desired.

This locker also plays a dual role as a locker room bench. The bottom of the foot locker slants inward at the base, allowing the player to use the top section as a small bench while putting on shin guards, shoes, or boots.

Soccer lockers are made from the highest quality birch plywood with a three coat lacquer finish to make it super moisture resistant. Lockers can be customized with locks on the foot locker storage for extra security, and they can be customized with team logos for academic and professional soccer organizations.
