Ecore Flooring and Spooky Nook Renovate Functional Training Spaces

Located in Manheim, Pa., Spooky Nook Sports is the largest indoor sports complex in North America. This 700,000-square-foot facility serves as a fitness space for locals and a training center for student, collegiate, and professional athletes.

“In the past, fitness facilities were focused on fitness alone, and the emphasis was on machines and how many they could cram into a space,” said Jim Launer, managing director of athletic operations at Spooky Nook Sports. “There also was only a small focus on weights, and the floors were an afterthought. Typical fitness surfaces included carpet or thin rubber surfacing over concrete with the main benefit being that they were easy to clean. The focus is now on strength and conditioning – jumping, sprinting, throwing and crawling.”
