The Halliwell Jones Stadium – home of ‘Warrington Wolves’ – chooses Extricom to Enhance their Fan Experience and Generate Revenue Growth.

Sporting venues often bring thousands or tens of thousands of people together to enjoy a single event. These days, passionate fans are expecting more than ever to enjoy a reliable and consistent mobility experience and to use their personal devices as they would anywhere else. At the same time, stadium and team owners are looking for ways to make money, to regain revenue from their initial investment.

 Whilst traditional wireless infrastructure providers have inherently struggled with performance issues within stadium constructions or have had to develop venue-specific additional technologies, the standard Extricom solution with its patented Channel Blanket™ architecture will simply deliver interference-free connectivity and much more, as The Halliwell Jones Stadium discovered.

This stadium is not only an iconic local sports venue but in recent years has been the hub for many community events and provides a model that other leading sports clubs throughout the world have studied. Following the stadium’s re-development, Andy Topham, Marketing and CRM Manager at the stadium was looking to deploy an effective wireless LAN solution in both the North Stand at 65m x 12m and the East Stand at 100m x 15m. The East Stand also houses the club’s health and education facilities and their banqueting and conference facilities.

“At the end of the current season we knew we were going to build a further new stand to complete the stadium set-up. We needed a wireless solution that was flexible, easily scalable and would remain unaffected by environmental changes. Extricom fitted the bill.”
