Description
Track Pit Covers are designed to protect long jump and triple jump pits when they are not in use. By covering the sand, these custom-made covers help keep pits cleaner, more organized, and ready for practices, meets, and everyday training.
Outdoor sand pits are exposed to leaves, trash, dirt, rain, animals, and general facility traffic. A Track Pit Cover creates a protective barrier over the pit, helping reduce debris buildup and keeping the sand in better condition. This helps athletes train and compete on a cleaner landing surface while making daily maintenance easier for coaches, grounds crews, and facility managers.
These covers also help prevent unwanted use of the pit. When a sand pit is left open, it can attract misuse or unnecessary foot traffic, especially at schools, parks, and public athletic facilities. Covering the pit helps protect the area and keeps it reserved for its intended purpose.
Available in vinyl or mesh, with ballasted or non-ballasted options, Putterman’s Pit Covers are avaliable in vinyl or mesh, with ballasted or non-ballasted options, and can be made to fit your pit’s exact inside dimensions. Ballasted covers include a weighted hem to help keep the cover in place without tie-downs. The non-ballasted covers include grommets for securing with stakes, ropes, or bungees. Multiple color choices and printing options are available, making it easy to match school colors, add logos, or create a polished facility look.
For schools, universities, parks, recreation departments, and athletic complexes, Track Pit Covers are a practical way to protect sand pits, reduce maintenance, and keep track and field areas looking professional and ready for use.
