Two-way radios for stadiums and sports clubs
The safety officer in the control room, the steward supervisors in each stand, the turnstile team, the medics, the car parks and the broadcast compound all need their own channels and one emergency all-call, and the whole system has to keep working when a full house of phones is saturating the mast.
We supply stadium fleets as FW-400 packs for stewards, HP605 or R7 radios for the outside teams and FW-600 display radios for supervisors and the control room, through a repeater so every stand and concourse is covered. Non-league and community clubs take a small pack by the matchday. Racecourses, golf tournaments and road races hire for the event.
Clubs with a full season usually lease the fleet. Event venues hire by the fixture and we deliver the day before.
Typical accessories
- D-shape earpieces
- 6-way chargers
- Cases
- Noise-cancelling headsets for pitchside
What matters in stadiums and sports clubs
The problems radios solve here, and how we set them up.
A full house
Radios run on their own licensed channels, so they keep working when every phone in the ground is trying to connect.
Many teams, one incident
Separate channels for stewards, security, medical and car parks, with an emergency all-call for the safety officer.
Concourses and under the stands
A repeater covers the bowl, the concourses and the areas under the stands.
Matchday-only need
Hire by the fixture, delivered the day before, or lease for the season at a lower monthly rate.

Stadiums and sports clubs: common questions
How many radios for a 5,000-capacity ground?
Typically 20 to 30: steward supervisors per stand, turnstiles, security, medical, car parks and control. We work it out from your safety plan.
Can we hire by the matchday?
Yes. Matchday hire is delivered the day before and collected after. A season lease costs less per fixture.
Can the control room record calls?
Yes. A dispatch console with a base station records every call and logs emergency activations for the post-match report.
