Office Insight: Hollman Family Foundation Revitalizes High School Sports Facilities

The Texas-based foundation is partnering with deserving schools to upgrade their athletic locker room facilities.

The Hollman Family Foundation, founded by Travis and Stephanie Hollman of Hollman Inc., the industry leader in locker designs and solutions, believes that all benefit when given the opportunity and tools to plan for the future.

The 2022 winner of Hollman Helps Locker Room Renovation program that gives deserving schools across the nation the opportunity to be chosen for a $100,000 locker room rehabilitation was Norte Vista High School in Riverside, CA.The completely overhauled locker room was unveiled in December, and the program is currently open to new submissions for 2023. The school’s locker room facilities were in need of a major overhaul; there was no air conditioning, a leaking ceiling, and damaged lockers. Norte Vista’s football coach, Ken Batdorf, has been at the school for over 25 years and as a result of his program, many of the students consider their school and team a second home. The result of Hollman’s overhaul was a fully renovated locker room outfitted with custom-built Hollman lockers in the school’s very own colors.

Project Insight: Wake Forest University Men and Women’s Basketball

Wake Forest University’s Men and Women Basketball unveiled their newly constructed clubhouses with upgraded locker rooms by Hollman, Inc.

Wake Forest University unveiled their newly constructed Chris Paul Family Men’s Basketball and Dr. Caryl Guth Women’s Basketball Clubhouses this past September. The new Clubhouses’ expansions include upgraded locker rooms that are more than double their current club spaces. One of the primary goals of their clubhouse expansion was to create a locker room that was not only attractive to recruits but a more inclusive environment for current players.

Wake Forest University is no stranger to Hollman Lockers; already renovating multiple locker rooms through us. Wake Forest’s Associate Athletic Director, Craig Zakrzewski, and University Planning and Construction Sr. Project Manager, Jill Perry, visited Hollman’s headquarters in Irving, TX. The group included Walter Robbs Callahan & Pierce’s President, Ken McDaniel, and Vannoy & Sons Construction Company, Inc.’s General Contractor, Jon-Michael Broyles.

Their visitation included a manufacturing tour and a review of the mock-ups for the Men and Women’s future lockers with our athletics team. By doing this, Wake Forest could see Hollman’s full manufacturing capabilities as well as discover concepts that were later added to their design. With this hands-on approach, the members could get a vision of what the locker room could be and work with our experts to make changes, adaptations, and additions to ensure the lockers fulfill student-athlete needs.

The lockers are comprised of primarily black Nanolam and Solid Surface materials with the Acrylic Pocket Doors that are back painted with the school’s “Demon Deacon” and “Wake Forest” verbiage displayed across the lockers as added team spirit. The teams did not mess around when it came to customization pieces that truly lit up the room – literally. The lockers include RGB LED lighting displayed throughout the locker including continuous toe-kick lighting underneath the locker and backlit acrylic shelves that can be seen when the locker interior is exposed. 

The Men and Women’s lockers include 43’ inch commercial cloud-based displays above each locker, ideal for player personalization and team graphics. Behind the concealing doors, players can find interior hanging space that includes a ventilation slot to drop down drying time, three shelves for easy access storage, a lockable shelf accented with gold felt liner and a wireless charging station. 

The key difference between the two locker rooms is the lower section of the locker where the soft-closing cleat drawer is placed. It was determined that the men’s team required more space in the drawer for storage while the women’s team opted for a seating option. The women’s locker includes integrated seating with marine-grade vinyl cushions; the drawer is conveniently located underneath and can be accessed through the cushion. 

With the clubhouses complete, the student-athletes are fully equipped for their upcoming season and through Hollman’s design efforts, both teams have a locker room that is made for lasting impressions and team celebrations.
