Fan Favorites

Stay cool and keep your team at peak performance with our high-efficiency misting fans designed specifically for high school football fields. Our fans provide instant relief from the heat, lowering on-field temperatures by up to 30 degrees, ensuring players stay hydrated and focused during the game. With durable, weather-resistant construction, our fans are built to last through the toughest seasons. Easy to set up and maintain, they offer the perfect cooling solution for practice and game days alike. Invest in the well-being and performance of your team with a cooling system that works as hard as they do.

Go Caddie

Our value prop is that we will have more options to our app. For example we will have the option to be able to pay on the app and not just in venmo. Most apps just give caddy masters an option to assign loops but we are looking to elevate that to creating paymate options in app and not on venmo to make everything more official when it comes to members paying caddies.
