Painted Schoolyard Courts · 17 Installed In Ontario

Turn That Blank Wall Into A Painted Court.

Realistic sport courts painted on a blank wall and the ground in front of it. Play or practise volleyball, tennis, hockey, handball and more, right off the wall. No setup. No takedown.

A 20-minute call. No cost or commitment. We review your space and tell you honestly whether it looks suitable.

What Is A GANP Sportswall?

A wall that plays back. Hit it, it returns the ball. One kid can go alone. A whole class can go at once. Nobody stands around waiting for a partner.

Not a digital sportswall.

Some products called “sports walls” use projectors, cameras and screens. Ours is paint on the wall and yard your school already has, plus the games to go with it. Nothing to plug in, nothing to log into, nothing to store.

How does it work?

Hit, throw or kick a ball against the wall. Rally with a friend. Practise alone. Play a game. Use the markings at recess, in phys ed, at intramurals or in class. One wall, many ways to move.

Six Ways To Use One Wall.

Why Schools Choose Sportswalls.

It is one of the cheapest ways to raise physical activity in a schoolyard. No construction, low upkeep, and it uses space the school already has. GANP has painted Sportswalls at 17 schoolyards across four Ontario boards.

  • Installed Across:
  • Toronto Catholic DSB
  • Peel DSB
  • York Catholic DSB
  • Halton DSB

Uses The Yard You Already Have

Add another activity without constructing a new field or storing permanent equipment.

Works Across The School Day

Use it during recess, physical education, intramurals and skill practice.

More Ways To Join In

Wall games let students play alone, with a partner or in a group.

We Don't Paint It And Leave.

A wall does nothing if nobody knows what to do with it. Our first walls sat quiet until we went back and taught people how to use them. Now that part comes built in. Every Sportswall includes ready-to-run games for your teachers: basketball math, outdoor gym class, recess games, intramurals, and practice drills for teams.

From Blank Wall To Playable Court.

What is a GANP Sportswall?

Realistic sport courts painted on a blank wall and the ground in front of it. Kids play or practise volleyball, tennis, hockey, handball, basketball and four-square, right off the wall. The wall is the other player, so one kid can practise alone or a whole class can play. No setup. No takedown.

Is a GANP Sportswall digital?

No. Some products called “sports walls” use projectors, cameras and screens. GANP Sportswalls are different. We paint the court right onto a wall and yard the school already has. Nothing to plug in, power or repair.

What sports can you play on a Sportswall?

Tennis, volleyball, hockey, handball, basketball, soccer and four-square, plus target games. Kids switch games without moving a thing. We design the markings to your yard and age range, so one wall gives kids several ways to move.

How does practising off a wall help my game?

The wall always sends it back. No partner, no waiting your turn, no picking sides. You get hundreds of touches in a few minutes, and that is how serving, passing and shooting actually improve. It is why players have practised against handball and tennis walls for generations.

How much does a Sportswall cost?

It depends mainly on wall size, how many games you want painted, and travel to your school. Schools, boards, fundraising and grants can all cover it, and GANP can help you explore those routes; funding is not guaranteed. You get the exact number on your call, before you commit to anything.

What can be painted on the wall?

Hockey, soccer, volleyball, tennis and handball nets, plus targets and four-square. Have something else in mind? We take requests and design the court to your yard and age range.

How do we get kids more active at recess?

Give them something to do the second they walk outside. Most yards have one or two things to play on and a lineup for both. A painted wall turns dead space into courts kids can use with no equipment, no teams and no waiting. More students moving, fewer standing around.

What’s a low cost way to add more sports at our school?

Paint. A Sportswall uses a wall and a patch of ground you already own. No construction, no new structure, nothing to store. One wall can hold volleyball, tennis, hockey, handball, basketball and four-square. Cost comes down to wall size and how many games you want, and schools, boards, fundraising and grants can all cover it.

Does more activity help kids learn better?

Teachers tell us the same thing every time: students who move come back to class calmer and ready to work. That’s the whole idea behind Moving & Learning, our program that puts movement inside lessons. A Sportswall does the same job outside, so the energy gets spent before it walks back in.

What can we do with a blank wall in our schoolyard?

Paint sport courts on it. That blank wall is usually the biggest unused surface the school owns. We design and paint the goals, nets, targets and lines onto the wall and the ground in front of it, then hand your teachers the games to run on it. Most walls are done in a day.

What does our school get out of it?

Another way for students to move, using space you already have. A Sportswall adds play at recess, in phys ed and at intramurals, with no construction and low upkeep.

What does the repaint warranty cover?

A three-year warranty on the wall markings. Send us photos, and if the wall markings have faded we repaint them. Painted ground lines aren’t included.

Are they safe and durable?

Built for normal supervised schoolyard play. The paint is durable outdoor line paint made for weather and heavy use: low upkeep, no nets to store and no moving parts.
