A Powerful New Accessory for AirPro® Lockers

A new electrical outlet accessory enhances the convenience and functionality of GearBoss® AirPro® lockers, enabling athletes to safely and securely charge their electronic devices during practices or games.

The accessory kit includes a 15-amp outlet with USB-A and USB-C ports contained in a housing box with built-in shelf to hold devices during charging. Housing boxes are available in six standard locker widths. The housing box and shelf both feature a black textured paint finish for durability and stylish appearance.

This accessory is designed exclusively for single-tier lockers and is only available within the U.S.

Gold-Medal Strategies: Insights from Team USA

Inspired by the Summer Olympics in Paris starting later this month, here are four potential ways Team USA’s methods could enhance your own athletic program:

Sustainability is a key focus for Team USA, with initiatives such as using eco-friendly materials and reducing waste at training and competition venues. Schools can implement similar practices by adopting green policies for facility maintenance and using sustainable sports equipment. This not only promotes environmental responsibility but also educates students on the importance of sustainability.

Team USA’s use of advanced data analytics to track athlete performance and optimize training regimens can be mirrored in educational institutions. By integrating wearable technology and data analytics platforms, schools can monitor athletes’ performance metrics, tailor training programs and enhance overall athletic development. This technology-driven approach helps ensure that training is both efficient and effective.

Engaging athletes in community activities and promoting a supportive team environment is a cornerstone of Team USA’s strategy. Schools can enhance their sports programs by fostering community involvement, organizing local events and encouraging student-athletes to participate in outreach programs. This builds a strong community connection and provides athletes with a sense of purpose beyond their sport.

Team USA often collaborates with external experts, including sports scientists and medical professionals, to enhance training and performance. High school and college athletic programs can benefit from similar collaborations by partnering with local universities, medical centers and sports organizations to access specialized knowledge and resources. This collaboration can lead to improved training methodologies and better health outcomes for athletes.

Featured Installation: Mt. San Antonio College, Walnut, CA

“All our GearBoss products meet high standards for robustness and practicality, which I appreciate,” explains Ryan Grant, athletic equipment tech at Mt. San Antonio College (Mt. SAC) in Walnut, CA. “I pay close attention to detail; I thoroughly test whatever we purchase so I know everything about it.”

Mt. SAC is the second largest community college in the state, serving over 28,000 students. Known for its strong athletic program, the college has won 90 state championships, including 59 titles since 2000.

In 2023, the new 110,000-square-foot Gym, Aquatics, and Wellness Center opened to serve students, athletes and the community. Throughout this facility, GearBoss storage solutions help organize and protect equipment.
