But we're 338 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 5: kind of right in that area where we skew a 339 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 5: little bit more towards the residential, but we certainly have 340 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 5: that commercial ability and market as well. 341 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 2: Hey, I'm going to ask you, I should have given 342 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 2: you a hits up in this, and I apologize, but 343 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 2: you know your elevator pitch because there's some competition in 344 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 2: this space. And look, the fact that you guys have 345 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 2: been around for fifty two years certainly jumps off the 346 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 2: page for me. But I'm wondering for you when people 347 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 2: bring in either some of your competition or wondering what 348 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,199 Speaker 2: sets you apart from other people in this space, what 349 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 2: do you tell them? 350 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's a fun one for us. It really 351 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 5: is that experience factor. I've been at it for ten years, 352 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 5: my boss, We've been in Minnesota, Wisconsin for thirty eight years. 353 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 5: Sport Court, our main brand has been around for like 354 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 5: you said, fifty two years, so really there there's no 355 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 5: one that can match our experience in the state. And 356 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,400 Speaker 5: then it's the fun part for me is then I've 357 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 5: I've been on courts that are over thirty years old 358 00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 5: outdoor in Wisconsin, going through all of our seasons every 359 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 5: year and they're still going. 360 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 3: But there was a court that I won't say who 361 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 3: they are, but you guys did the court. Your company 362 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 3: did a court thirty years ago and you still use it. 363 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 3: I mean it's it's in really good shape. 364 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 5: Oh, it's it's I think my favorite one is we've 365 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 5: got a particular court down in Janesville. They did a 366 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 5: newspaper article on it. Actually, the local newspaper did an 367 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 5: article on that court a few years back. Because they're 368 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 5: now on their third generation of not just their kids, 369 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 5: because it's a it's a residential backyard court. They're on 370 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 5: their third generation of not their kids. But the neighborhood 371 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:23,600 Speaker 5: kids unbelievable. 372 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 3: They just keep getting in the way that those Wait, 373 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 3: I didn't know all about this flooring. I din'tven know 374 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 3: there was I didn't you know, I didn't really know 375 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 3: these guys at the time. I would ask them ahead 376 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 3: of time when we were doing taking us apart. But 377 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 3: you can take those carts apart because we had it 378 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 3: was a mobile pool and it was we had taken it. 379 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 3: We had to take it apart so they could fix 380 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 3: the pool. They hired us to do that, and we 381 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 3: put it back together and it was still good. 382 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: How hard was it to put it back together? As 383 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 2: long as we remembered where all the pieces went. It 384 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 2: was like it's like a puzzle. 385 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,400 Speaker 3: We took out pictures, but there's lines, there's lines on them. 386 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 3: There's just there's lines on them, and the lines and 387 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 3: we try to mark the best we could and it 388 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 3: was but I mean, those things are really tough and 389 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:00,239 Speaker 3: it's kind of worn off on the top because kind 390 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 3: of bleach a little bit, but the bottom is perfectly color. 391 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,399 Speaker 3: If you flip the thing upside down, you wouldn't have 392 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 3: to look like brand new.

We do. Yeah, it's it's 672 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 2: once they sign with you, when you're done, they could 673 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 2: go shoot. They don't have to. They don't have to 674 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: get another company to come and put in the stand 675 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 2: and the backboard and the hoop. Correct. Yeah. So we're full, 676 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: full service. 677 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 5: So we like to be that one stop shop for 678 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 5: our customers so they don't have to go through the 679 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 5: hassle of finding three different contractors, finding three different companies, 680 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 5: vetting three different companies. We'll take it from bear grass 681 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 5: to completed court. The only thing that we don't do is, uh, 682 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 5: the landscaping portion. Okay, So I always like to say 683 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 5: we're we're excellent court builders, we're not landscapers. Now that 684 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 5: is a whole different decision that that they're making. And 685 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 5: you know, most of our customers just do some basic 686 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 5: grass repair and take the grass read up to the court, 687 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 5: but some want to make this a featured area and 688 00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 5: are investing along. 689 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 3: Sure, you have to talk to you about side I want. Yeah, 690 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 3: you have to talk to people about drainage and that 691 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 3: kind of thing. Right, somebody has months to put a 692 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 3: court in a boma the hill, but you look every 693 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 3: spring it's underwater. 694 00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: That that won't work. You have to like you have 695 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 2: to advise them where to put it. 696 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 5: Yep, because we do do a you know, those courts 697 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 5: are built with a concrete base, so we do have 698 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 5: the water consideration of where we where we putting this 699 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 5: water that's now not getting absorbed into the ground. And 700 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 5: so some courts we have to do some retaining wall 701 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 5: work with them or you know, we have to be 702 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 5: mindful of where we place that court. 703 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 2: What was it? Ask you two different questions. 704 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 3: One is what was when someone just says I want you, 705 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 3: I want to do this, and you're like, absolutely not, 706 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 3: you can't. You can't do it because I have in 707 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 3: my world people say hey, I want to I want 708 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 3: to do this in my kitchen, like this won't even fit. 709 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, we we've had a few. I think 710 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 5: more often than not those conversations are revolving around repairing 711 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 5: old tennis courts that haven't seen love in two decades, 712 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 5: and it's having that unfortunate conversation with them of saying, 713 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,480 Speaker 5: I can't put lipstick on this pig and make it beautiful. 714 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 5: We need to take a step back, and we need 715 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 5: to have a serious conversation of what do we want 716 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 5: to do because really, this this, this court is to 717 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 5: the point where we can't be really be careful. 718 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 2: Can you put it over that we can. 719 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 5: If the asphalt or if if that existing tennis court 720 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 5: isn't good enough condition, right, we can absolutely that existent 721 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 5: court and kind of elevate that and bring the new 722 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:19,279 Speaker 5: life into it. 723 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 2: Hey when when if you want to do this, And 724 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 2: I would recommend it because I've been on their website 725 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 2: a lot and I keep going to the gallery because 726 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:31,360 Speaker 2: there's so many really cool pictures. Go to sport Court 727 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 2: Wisconsin dot com. Sport Court Wisconsin dot com. You being 728 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 2: from Minnesota, hockey's big, Hockey's bigger up there than this here. 729 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 2: Soida State High School tournament is going on right now 730 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,919 Speaker 2: as the I think there Wisconsin, when it was last week. 731 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,839 Speaker 2: I should know that. But you guys do a lot 732 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 2: in the hockey world as well. Look with with what 733 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: happened in the Olympics, I would think maybe the phone 734 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: rang a little bit more. But you guys put up 735 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 2: hot hockey rinks in p those backyards, it looks like, 736 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 2: and then indoor hockey rinks where where they can play, 737 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 2: you know, in tennis shoes. But man, I love the 738 00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 2: outdoor rinks. 739 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, so it's a it's a fun feature. And so 740 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 5: for you those hockey families to put in a court now, 741 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 5: the conversion to a rink is a whole lot easier 742 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 5: now because we're working on an exactly flat surface, so 743 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 5: it becomes very easy to do. And we'll certainly accommodate 744 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 5: with the hockey boards if they want them up all year. 745 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 5: Otherwise it's a it's a very easy system to kind 746 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,280 Speaker 5: of build out those boards and really just build a bowl, 747 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 5: put a liner in, freeze it and let. 748 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 3: The let the weather do what it wants. I saw 749 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 3: it there, just one on Toasta and it's you know, 750 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 3: you know on Zambonia. You know what you do, just 751 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 3: spray with water and now it's perfect again. 752 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 2: Really and do you guys then do they is it 753 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 2: hard for them to take that down once winter's over? 754 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 2: It is not okay? 755 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 5: So typically what we see with our customers that do 756 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 5: the outdoor rinks is they just get a new liner 757 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 5: every year. So that's just kind of the plastic sheeting 758 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 5: that goes down just to hold water since. 759 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:06,479 Speaker 2: Our courts are designed to shed water. 760 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, so most customers just get a new liner every 761 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,280 Speaker 5: year because the hassle of trying to pull that liner 762 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,720 Speaker 5: up without damaging it becomes more effort. 763 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 2: Where do they get Can they get the liner from you? 764 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 5: So the liner, most of them are going to come 765 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 5: from either nice rink or d one yard rink. 766 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 2: So outside sources. 767 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 5: So we're not involved directly with that, but will certainly 768 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 5: help build the space. 769 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 2: And that's awesome. These rinks are I've got to believe 770 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 2: that you have sold more up in the Minnesota area. 771 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 2: But I've got to believe that if people see the 772 00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 2: pictures I'm looking at on your website right now and 773 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 2: they've thought about it, they you know, some people think, well, 774 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:50,760 Speaker 2: I'll just go in the backyard and put a hose 775 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 2: out and let it freeze, and don't do that. 776 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 3: I would highly recommend like the one on Tolsa. It's 777 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 3: not real big because you know, it's a toffert right 778 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 3: but it's the see that the backstop, the rink with 779 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:03,279 Speaker 3: in that and everything that looks like right out of 780 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 3: a pro game. I mean, it's just it's great how 781 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 3: that thing looks. 782 00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, incredible. Guys, go to this website and do what 783 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 2: I did. Go to the gallery page first. You can 784 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 2: look at pictures of home gyms and tennis, residential, commercial 785 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,919 Speaker 2: basketball courts, all of that batchy ball. There's a lot 786 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:26,279 Speaker 2: of things that they offer. Spring free trampolines. 787 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 5: Yes, so we are a spring free trampoline dealer. So 788 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 5: that's the safest trampoline in the industry. So you know, 789 00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 5: we all know or have done it ourselves, or we've 790 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 5: been on the trampoline and we lose a leg, a 791 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 5: gap between the actual trampoline matting and where. 792 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: Those grand kits. Huh, there you go. 793 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 5: So with the spring free we eliminate that gap. It's 794 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 5: all a fiberglass tension rode underneath, so the bounce is 795 00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 5: the same. 796 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 2: Well, I watched the video and you and I thought, 797 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 2: oh man, my grandkids would have been a lot safe 798 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 2: from this thing, for sure. One hundred and especially when 799 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 2: we're playing with charts. Yeah, we don't want that, don't Yeah. 800 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 2: The charts. We don't play with those much anymore. I 801 00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:11,400 Speaker 2: can tell you that the other thing that that I 802 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 2: think is probably pretty big around here is baseball. You 803 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 2: do the the hitting nuts. You do a lot of 804 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 2: different things in the world of baseball. I'm looking at 805 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 2: one picture where a guy a kid is pitching or throwing, 806 00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 2: another one where a bunch of people are hitting, and 807 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 2: I would assume that both commercial and residential in baseball, 808 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: you guys do quite a bit in that space. 809 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, we we do less than you'd think, but we 810 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 5: definitely play and we've definitely do the batting cages and 811 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 5: come alongside glad. So we actually just did a project 812 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 5: last year with a family in Delafield where you know, 813 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 5: we did the court and the basketball and pickle ball, 814 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 5: but right behind that we also did a batting cage, 815 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 5: artificial turf base it on the light around so they 816 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 5: can they can play all winter, all summer, all night. 817 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 2: And you're gonna find this bingo And I already know this, 818 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,399 Speaker 2: but kind of like Zach, Zach was in the race 819 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 2: car driving for a long time and then he switched 820 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 2: and they got in the golf and he got it 821 00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 2: into trap shooting. As kids get older. My grandkids man 822 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 2: football right now. One plays football, once runs lacrosse, they 823 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 2: all play basketball, they all play lacrosse baseball. One year 824 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 2: one of the grandkids and he said, look, it's just 825 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 2: a little too slow for me. But I can tell 826 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 2: you that the amount of people that are going to 827 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 2: different places to hit, because baseball now is becoming year 828 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,879 Speaker 2: round in the state of Wisconsin.
