Champ Series
Engineered athletic facilities in three configurations to match your performance requirements, climate conditions, and budget.
Build Safer, Smarter Athletic Facilities.
From open-air pavilions to climate-controlled competition venues, every Champ structure is built around a proven rigid steel frame system with clear span interiors and customizable features.
Whether you need weather protection for seasonal training, year-round practice space with natural ventilation, or a fully insulated facility for climate-controlled competition, the Champ Series adapts to your program's needs.

Configuration
Roof-Only Pavilions
Best for: Seasonal training, covered practices, cost-effective compliance
The translucent PVC cladding roof provides natural daylighting and shade. Open-air sides maintain an outdoor training environment. Column-free spans for unlimited sports configurations. Optional sidewall curtains for wind/weather control.
Enclosed & Uninsulated
Best for: Year-round training, indoor practice facilities, multi-sport complexes
Passive and active ventilation systems (ridge vents, intake fans, circulation fans). Natural light through a translucent fabric roof reduces utility costs. Accommodates hydration zones, rest areas, and shaded practice setups. Superior acoustics—fabric doesn't rattle or reverberate.
Enclosed, Lined
& Insulated
Best for: Climate-controlled environments, competition venues, year-round multi-sport facilities
Comprehensive insulation package for consistent climate control. Precision-sealed connections ensure maximum efficiency. Custom exterior facades blend seamlessly with campus architecture. Acoustic performance supports clear communication for multiple simultaneous activities. Column-free spans with engineered hanging loads for scoreboards, hoops, netting.
Champ Series Applications
Indoor Practice Facilities
Year-round training space for football, soccer, baseball, softball, lacrosse, field hockey. Clear span design accommodates full-field configurations with space for drills, conditioning, and tactical work. Natural ventilation reduces humidity buildup during intense training sessions.
Multi-Sport Complexes
Versatile interiors support basketball, volleyball, tennis, pickleball, wrestling, and other court sports. Reconfigure space for different activities or create dedicated training zones.
Field Houses & Gymnasiums
Community centers, municipal facilities, and school gymnasiums benefit from Champ's combination of weather protection, natural light, and operational efficiency. Lower utility costs compared to fully conditioned buildings while maintaining year-round usability.
Specialty Athletics
Track and field training, batting cages, golf simulators, turf sports, cheerleading, dance, and fitness training. Champ structures adapt to specialized equipment needs including hanging loads for nets, scoreboards, basketball goals, and training apparatus.
Ventilation-First Design
(Uninsulated and Pavilion)
Legacy's passive and active ventilation systems work together to maintain airflow and reduce heat stress. Ridge vents, vented soffits, wall-mounted intake fans, and high-volume circulation fans promote continuous air movement—supporting compliance with UIL, CIF, and Zachary Martin Act heat safety standards.
Climate Control Precision
(Insulated)
High-performance insulated envelope with interior liner system ensures consistent comfort and superior energy efficiency. HVAC-ready integration enables precise environmental management for year-round training and competition.
Natural Daylighting
White translucent PVC fabric (uninsulated/pavilion) or reflective interior liner (insulated) optimizes light distribution and visibility. Reduces artificial lighting needs while creating bright, energizing training environments.
Column-Free Flexibility
Clear span interiors eliminate structural obstructions, allowing unlimited sports configurations. Straight walls accommodate equipment storage, bleacher installation, and efficient space utilization without working around interior columns.
Built to Meet Heat Safety Regulations
New regulations in Texas (UIL Heat Guidelines), Florida (Zachary Martin Act), and California (CIF Heat Guidelines) mandate heat safety protocols for school athletics. Legacy's Champ Series structures are designed to support compliance through thermal performance and ventilation engineering.
-
Low Thermal Conductivity
Legacy's white tensioned PVC fabric is thermally non-conductive, helping to reduce heat transfer into the structure. This helps maintain cooler interior temperatures and lower surface temperatures on turf and equipment—especially critical in high WBGT (Wet Bulb Globe Temperature) environments.
-
Ventilation Lowers Apparent Temperature
Passive systems (gravity ridge vents, vented soffits) and active elements (intake fans, circulation fans) work to move air effectively across space. Better air movement over athletes' bodies supports cooling and helps meet ventilation standards required by heat safety regulations.
-
Supports Compliance Protocols
Champ Series buildings can accommodate hydration zones and rest areas, provide shaded practice setups out of direct sun, support WBGT monitoring equipment installation, enable graduated activity modifications by heat category, and maintain protective enclosure during heat events when outdoor practice is restricted.

FAQs
-
Which Champ configuration is right for my facility?
It depends on your climate, usage patterns, and budget. A pavilion works for seasonal training with weather protection. Uninsulated enclosed provides year-round indoor space with natural ventilation. Insulated enclosed delivers climate-controlled environments for competition venues. Our team will help assess your needs during consultation.
-
Does the Champ Series meet building codes for athletic facilities?
Yes. Legacy structures are engineered to meet or exceed IBC (International Building Code) and state-specific requirements. We provide submittal documentation for Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) approval processes.
-
How does ventilation work without HVAC in the uninsulated configuration?
Champ Uninsulated combines passive systems (ridge vents, vented soffits) with active fans to promote continuous airflow. This reduces "apparent temperature" by moving air over athletes' bodies—often more comfortable than stagnant, conditioned air.
-
What about extreme heat days when outdoor practice is suspended?
Champ Uninsulated provides shaded, ventilated indoor alternatives during high WBGT conditions. For Black Flag days (WBGT >92°F) when outdoor workouts are prohibited, Champ Insulated offers a climate-controlled training environment.
-
Can we upgrade from uninsulated to insulated later?
Yes. Champ structures can be upgraded with insulation and HVAC systems if requirements change. The enclosed design provides flexibility for future modifications.
-
How long does installation take?
Typical Champ installation: 6-12 months from design approval to project completion, depending on size, configuration, and site conditions. Significantly faster than traditional construction.
