It's been one heck of a year
Looking forward to 2010
With the year winding down, as you can imagine, everybody is writing about what's happened this past year - the highs and the lows and the old and the new. Each year seems to fly by with us all wondering what really happened over the last 12 months. Pondering this now is no different than in previous years.
This year proved to us that people are still building racquetball and squash courts more than ever. Though we've seen fewer mega facilities sporting 10+ court systems, we're still experiencing great demand in an expanding sport. The facilities today are still building courts but are now focusing on how to properly market and program racquetball and squash in their building vs. just being the next giant facility.
As with most businesses, seeing how the economy affects our industry is one that we're waiting to see unfold. We anticipate some non-contracted projects to be put on hold or cancelled but we also anticipate seeing the private court sector to continue to increase as we're witnessing now. I know that sounds ironic but the residential market with court construction is still going strong.
As we continue to look back on 2009, we can honestly say that the last 12 months have been good. Court construction continues to be good and the visibility of our company continues to increase. This past year, we enhanced our relationships with owners and architects at trade shows, we created a nice marketing folder, we updated our website which enabled you to network with us via cyberspace, we introduced a new basketball product that will change the way that people build courts, and we continued to work with some great contractors/architects/owners on several projects across the United States and abroad.
So, as we move into 2010, we'll continue to work hard in providing quality court systems and attentive customer service while looking forward to celebrating over 34 years of success in this specialized industry.
Thank you for your continued support and we wish you much success in the new year.
