Our range of made-to-measure long jump pit covers are essential for protecting and maintaining sporting facilities. Designed for use all year round, they provide the ultimate protection for harsh environments. We use heavy-duty, non-porous PVC for use in all indoor and outdoor environments.

To protect and maintain long jump sand pits, a protective tarpaulin is the ideal choice. A bespoke cover will reduce weed growth, prevent debris from gathering and deter animals from fouling in the sand.

The covers create a physical barrier, maintaining a dry and sterile area. This makes it an overall safer environment for athletes and personnel, allowing immediate use all year round. Also discourages unauthorized use of the long jump landing pit.

Designed for ease of installation and removal, they are a trusted choice for many, including:

• Schools
• Recreation/Leisure centres 
• Councils 
• Sports clubs
• Competition organisations 
• Sports equipment suppliers & manufacturers

Waterproof – A crucial element of long jump pit covers is a complete waterproof solution. This is essential for maintaining dry sand, to prevent waterlogging and to ensure the safety of those using it.

UV Protected – Our choice of 610gsm is UV protected, increasing the lifespan of the cover. This prevents the cover from colour degradation, fading and splits or cracks. For sporting facilities and schools, this helps maintain a professional and tidy space.

Easy to handle – Our 610gsm PVC has a lightweight construction, allowing for easy fitting, removal and storage. Much easier than other conventional systems that require more than one person. Facility staff can quickly cover and uncover the pit, saving valuable time.

Durability – With the use of heavy-duty, industrial grade tarpaulin we can ensure many years of secure protection. The cover lasts longer because of the reinforced edges. This added strength helps prevent wear and tear.

Installation – Long jump pit covers can be secured in place using sandbags or poles. We manufacture sandbags using the same PVC material and colour of the cover. Simply fill the PVC bag with sand and the weight will keep the cover in place.

We can supply any size, any colour and any shape tarpaulins, all are bespoke made. Our flexibility allows custom long jump pit covers to perfectly fit at any facility.

We manufacture long jump pit covers in heavy-duty, weatherproof PVC as standard. As we manufacture made-to-order, we can also use fine mesh netting in the centre with reinforced PVC sides to suit your requirements.

A popular choice is printed tarpaulins, consisting of company branding, logos and text. This is a great option for the sports sector which often needs visible branding for events or teams that want custom colours.

You can install and secure the tarpaulin in a number of ways. The first is using sandbags which we make using the same PVC material. Simply fill with sand and place along the perimeter.

The second option is to include a pocket along both long edges to insert a pole or metal bar. The final option is eyelets evenly spaced around the cover edge and secure in place with bungee loops and pegs.
