PW Athletic Backless Players Bench - Aluminum, 6' to 21'
Description
The PW Athletic Players Bench Without Back is a field-proven seating solution built for the demands of schools, parks, athletic facilities, dugouts, and recreational courts. Constructed with heavy-duty extruded aluminum or recycled plastic planks mounted on 2-3/8" O.D. steel posts, these benches are engineered to handle years of outdoor use without compromise. The clean, classic backless design works equally well on the sideline, in the dugout, or along a court or field perimeter.
Available in lengths from 6' to 21', these benches accommodate everything from a small youth dugout to a full varsity sideline. Frames are offered in galvanized steel for maximum corrosion resistance or powder coated in a wide range of colors to match your facility's branding. Three mounting options - in-ground, portable, and surface mount - give you flexibility for any installation environment.

Size & Finish Options - Which to Choose
6' Bench: The most compact option, ideal for small dugouts, youth sidelines, or tight spaces where a few players need seating. Available in standard 2"x10" or wider 2"x12" plank.
8' Bench: A versatile mid-size bench suited for recreational leagues, smaller team dugouts, or anywhere you need a step up in capacity from the 6' without committing to a longer run.
15' Bench: A full-size sideline bench well suited for high school or collegiate dugouts and team areas, providing comfortable seating for larger rosters.
21' Bench: The largest option, designed for varsity programs, large team benches, or facilities that need maximum seating in a single continuous run.
Galvanized Frame: Best for outdoor or high-moisture environments where corrosion resistance is the priority and color customization is not required. Also the fastest to ship.
Powder Coated Frame: Best when matching school or facility colors matters. The in-house process delivers a high-quality finish at a competitive price point across 30+ color choices.

What is the difference between galvanized and powder coated frames?
Galvanized frames are coated with a zinc layer during manufacturing, providing outstanding corrosion resistance and a classic silver-gray appearance. They require virtually no maintenance and are ideal for humid or high-moisture environments. Powder coated frames are finished in your choice of 30+ colors using PW Athletic's in-house process, allowing you to match school or facility colors. Both finishes are durable, but galvanized frames typically ship faster while powder coated options offer more visual customization.
Which mount type is right for my installation?
In-ground mount (M1) is the most permanent and stable option - posts are set directly into the ground with concrete, making it ideal for fixed dugouts and sideline installations. Surface mount (M3) uses a plate that bolts to an existing concrete or asphalt surface, great for patios, courts, or covered areas. Portable mount (M2) allows the bench to be moved and repositioned as needed, which works well for multi-use spaces or temporary setups. Contact us if you need help choosing the right mount for your specific site.
Can the aluminum planks be painted to match our team colors?
Yes - PW Athletic offers an optional plank paint upcharge that allows you to have the aluminum planks painted to match your team or facility colors. This is a separate option from the frame powder coat color. When ordering, select your desired plank paint option along with your frame color to get a fully coordinated bench.
How long does delivery take?
Galvanized frame options are available for quick ship. Powder coated and custom color options may require additional lead time due to the in-house finishing process. Exact lead times vary by model and current production schedule.

What does the 3-year warranty cover?
PW Athletic's 3-year warranty covers any well-maintained products used for their intended purpose. This means the bench must be properly installed per the included installation guide, used as seating in an athletic or recreational setting, and maintained in reasonable condition. The warranty does not cover damage from misuse, improper installation, or neglect. See PW Athletic's warranty details for full terms and conditions.
Is assembly required?
Yes, some assembly is required. Each bench ships with the necessary hardware and an installation guide covering the mounting process. The level of effort depends on the mount type selected - in-ground installations require post setting and concrete work, while surface and portable mounts are more straightforward. The included installation guide walks through the full process step by step.
