ATHLETICS
Athlete’s skills are developed at a young age which is why it is important to ensure quality track surfaces and facilities are in place to ensure that our youth can compete at national level.
Synsport specializes in the construction of athletics facilities, from full size tracks to smaller sprint tracks, long jump, high jump, javelin and pole vault facilities. Our team can handle the construction of the under-base to the final surface finish in line with World Athletics standards. We can also assist in the restoration of old tracks with our track re-topping service along with our line marking service.
We are a proud supplier and installer of STOBITAN track systems. These systems are certified by World Athletics. To date we have built a number of World Athletics certified tracks for Universities in South Africa.
