Sunshine Coast, Australia – – Todd Bowden, a trailblazer in the squash industry and founder of TBPM, is at the forefront of innovation once again. Having recognized the potential of the American squash market in the late 90s and early 2000s, Bowden is now introducing a groundbreaking solution to the Australian sporting scene: climate-controlled air-supported domes.
Research indicates that outdoor sporting venues can lose up to 45% of their usable days due to inclement weather, including rain, heat, cold, and wind. Bowden states, “There are many issues with outdoor sports being held in Australia. We’ve seen it at the highest levels of Aussie sport, and it affects social sport as well.”
He continues, “While Australians love to get outside and participate in sports, washouts and extreme heat often cause major disruptions. The cost of moving these sporting facilities indoors has traditionally been prohibitive.”
The introduction of air-supported dome technology offers a robust solution. These domes provide climate-controlled environments, transforming outdoor venues into adaptable, all-weather facilities.
Key benefits include:
– Cost Efficiency: Approximately one-third the cost of traditional brick-and-mortar infrastructure.
– Speed of Erection: Quicker to set up compared to conventional buildings.
– Adaptability: Easily adapted to existing infrastructure.
– Climate Control: Fully controlled indoor environments suitable for all sports and events.
– Mobility: Can be deconstructed and relocated if necessary.
– Durability: Designed to withstand Australia’s harsh climate with a lifespan of over 25 years.
“Air-supported domes are a game-changer for Australian sports,” asserts Bowden. “They offer a practical solution to weather-related disruptions and make high-quality sporting facilities accessible year-round.”
