Sport Resource Group, a provider of professional-grade athletic containment systems, recently completed a high-profile installation at the Chase Center in San Francisco. The project involved the rapid deployment of a ProWall-Ice Hockey Rink System as the centerpiece of the 2025 Thrive City Winter Wonderland, showcasing the efficiency and durability of modern outdoor portable ice hockey boards in high-traffic professional environments.
Why it matters
The transformation of the Chase Center plaza into a premier holiday destination required an aggressive timeline, and the Sport Resource Group team was able to install the full ProWall system, professional-grade synthetic ice, protective rubber flooring, and organized the rental skate inventory in a single night. This allowed the venue to maintain its high-traffic schedule while pivoting to a winter-themed fan experience in just a matter of hours.
The details
The ProWall Ice Hockey Rink System used at Thrive City is engineered specifically to meet the rigorous demands of skating in varying climates. These hockey dasher boards are molded out of a special low-temperature impact thermal resin, making them the ideal solution for venues that experience temperatures below freezing. Unlike traditional heavy wood or steel systems, ProWall-Ice offers a modular design that can be expanded or reconfigured in two-foot increments, allowing for custom footprints that fit perfectly within unique urban spaces like the Chase Center plaza.
