REGUPOL champion AG at the Sports Performance Center in Hanover
The running track in Hertha Blue, Sky Blue and Mouse Grey combines sports performance characteristics with a modern appearance. A special feature of the arena is the adjustable banked curves of the 200-meter circular track, which allow the sports facilities to be used flexibly.
The Sports Performance Center in Hanover is a training facility for elite and youth athletes in Lower Saxony. Since its opening in 1976, the center has provided training opportunities for various sports. In addition to the 200-meter circular track, the indoor athletics arena features facilities for sprinting, jumping and throwing disciplines and is used for both daily training and competitions.
REGUPOL champion AG – Running Track Surface for Indoor Athletics
The REGUPOL champion AG running track surface was installed across a total area of 3,608 m² in Hertha Blue, Sky Blue and Mouse Grey. The color combination gives the athletics arena a consistent appearance and provides clear visual separation of the different sports areas.
A key quality feature of the track system is the industrially prefabricated, elastic REGUPOL base mat. It forms the functional foundation of the surface and plays a significant role in the track's sports performance characteristics. Controlled manufacturing under consistent production conditions ensures uniform material quality and defined layer thicknesses. This enables consistent shock absorption and a uniform running experience across the entire surface.
Combined with the seamlessly applied, spike-resistant and slip-resistant EPDM surface layer, the result is a durable running track system designed to meet the requirements of training and competition. The combination of a prefabricated base mat and an on-site applied surface layer is a defining feature of the REGUPOL champion AG system, providing athletes with reliable conditions for various athletics disciplines.
Adjustable Banked Curves Enable Flexible Use of the Arena
A special feature of the indoor athletics arena at the Sports Performance Center in Hanover is the 200-meter circular track with adjustable banked curves. Unlike conventional indoor running tracks, the curved sections can be raised or lowered depending on the intended use.
For running activities, the curves can be raised to provide banking, helping athletes navigate the tight bends of an indoor track. When the curves are lowered, a level surface is created, allowing the arena to be used more flexibly for different sporting activities.
This technical feature expands the facility's range of uses and allows the indoor sports areas to be adapted to different training and event requirements.
Training Facility for Elite and Youth Athletics
The Sports Performance Center in Hanover offers training opportunities for athletes from various disciplines under one roof. In addition to the 200-meter circular track, the indoor athletics arena includes facilities for high jump, pole vault, long jump, and throwing and shot put events. The facilities are complemented by a separate sprint area and additional training rooms.
The combination of the REGUPOL champion AG running track and the adjustable banked curves supports the arena's versatile use. It provides athletes with a training environment designed to accommodate both indoor athletics and other sporting activities.
Functional Sports Infrastructure for Different Requirements
The installation of the running track provides a surface that combines sports performance characteristics with the facility's specific structural requirements. The REGUPOL champion AG running track combines the benefits of an industrially prefabricated base mat with a durable surface and a coordinated color scheme.
The project in Hanover demonstrates how REGUPOL contributes to equipping versatile sports facilities with running track systems designed to provide functional solutions for elite and youth athletics.
