Who We Are
2play turns underused spaces into active hubs
2play is a public health initiative built to combat sedentary lifestyles and promote healthy, engaged communities. Through our patented automated gear access system, we partner with cities and private communities to make sports and recreation equipment readily available in parks and green spaces — igniting communities through the power of play.
River Trails Park District, IL
Tamarack Trails Park, Mount Prospect
- Gear
- Football, cornhole, basketball, soccer, chess, pickleball paddles
- Access
- 24/7, first hour free
- Milestone
- First park district in Illinois with a 2play kiosk
Tamarack Trails already brings people out to its courts and open lawn, but until now they had to bring their own gear. The kiosk keeps a full set of equipment right by the courts day and night, with no front desk, sign-out sheet or staff on site. Residents scan a QR code, play free for the first hour and return the gear with a photo, while the district watches every rental from PlayPortal.
