  • Sport Resource Group Redefines Playground Safety with Commercial-Grade Gaga Ball Pits

    As Gaga Ball becomes a staple in schools and youth programs nationwide, SRG provides a durable, splinter-free alternative to traditional wooden pits.

    We are seeing a massive shift as schools and camps realize that a Gaga pit is one of the most cost-effective ways to get kids moving”
    — Chris Guertin, President

    MINNEAPOLIS, MN, UNITED STATES, March 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Sport Resource Group (SRG), a pioneer in modular athletic boundary systems, is addressing the explosive growth of Gaga Ball by providing high-quality, commercial-grade gaga ball pits designed for longevity and safety. As the sport moves beyond its traditional summer camp roots to become a fixture in schools, parks, YMCAs, and youth programs, the demand for infrastructure that can withstand heavy use and the elements has never been higher.

    Gaga Ball: The Rise of the “Playground Equalizer”

    Gaga Ball has earned a reputation as the “playground equalizer” because it allows youth of all athletic abilities to compete on a level playing field. Unlike traditional sports that may require years of specialized training, Gaga Ball’s simple rules, striking a soft foam ball to hit opponents below the knee, enable students to jump into the action within seconds. This inclusivity fosters immediate confidence and encourages physical activity among children who might otherwise feel sidelined during recess or PE classes.

    Today, gaga ball is prevalent in a wide array of settings, from urban YMCAs to sprawling summer camps and municipal parks. Its fast-paced, high-energy nature keeps entire classrooms engaged, as rounds turnover quickly, allowing eliminated players to return to the game in minutes.

    The Pitfalls of DIY Wood Gaga Ball Pits: Moving Beyond Splinters

    While many organizations initially attempt to build their own Gaga pits using wood, these DIY solutions often present significant long-term challenges. Traditional wooden pits are prone to splintering, which creates a safety hazard for children who frequently lean on or strike the walls during intense play. Furthermore, wood is susceptible to warping, rot, and fungal growth when exposed to the elements, often requiring annual staining and eventual replacement after only a few seasons.

    Sport Resource Group was a pioneer in moving the industry toward professional-grade alternatives. SRG’s Gaga Ball pits are manufactured from high-density, rotational-molded plastic that is specifically engineered to be four-season element-proof. Unlike wood, these panels will not decay, rust, or splinter, providing a safe, professional-looking environment that lasts for decades. They offer colors to match specific youth programs or school sports teams, if desired. The modular design allows for easy setup and take-down, making them ideal for facilities that need to move the pit indoors for winter or store it away for special events.

    Gaga Ball Success Spotlight: Sigsbee Charter School

    The benefits of a professional gaga ball pit system are clearly demonstrated by the experience of Sigsbee Charter School in Key West, Florida. After an extensive search to find the best option for their students, the school partnered with SRG to move away from substandard alternatives.

    “The quality of both gaga ball pits has exceeded our expectations,” says Joe Giusti of Sigsbee Charter School. “They are durable, visually appealing, and have quickly become some of the most popular features on our playground”.

    To ensure every student could participate, SRG worked with the school to design a custom 36 ft x 36 ft extra-large pit featuring a unique combination of green and natural white panels. The system arrived ready to assemble with all necessary components, including customized door latches. “Our students absolutely love them,” Giusti added.

    A Commitment to National Youth Fitness

    Sport Resource Group’s president, Chris Guertin, emphasizes that providing high-quality equipment is about more than just durability—it’s about supporting the growth and self-assurance of the next generation.

    “We are seeing a massive shift as schools and camps realize that a Gaga pit is one of the most cost-effective ways to get kids moving,” says Chris Guertin, President of Sport Resource Group. “By shipping our commercial-grade, modular gaga ball pit systems nationwide, we are helping organizations avoid the constant maintenance of wooden structures. Our goal is to provide a safe, high-performance space where every child feels empowered to play. When kids aren’t worried about splinters or unstable walls, they can focus entirely on the game, building the coordination and confidence that will serve them for years to come.”

    About Sport Resource Group

    Sport Resource Group is a leader in high-quality sports boundary systems and athletic equipment for Gaga Ball, Futsal, indoor soccer, box lacrosse, hockey, and more. Based in Minneapolis, SRG is a pioneer in the industry, offering modular, USA-made solutions that are ADA-compliant and built for high-use environments.

  • Conductor Solar releases new report on DG project M&A

    Free report analyzes buyers, sellers, projects, portfolios, and deal pricing across commercial & industrial, community solar, and small utility segments.

    ATHENS, OH, UNITED STATES, March 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Conductor Solar, an advisory and intelligence platform for distributed generation (DG) project funding and acquisitions, today announced the release of a new report analyzing DG project M&A activity in 2025.

    Conductor’s platform combines detailed, standardized project inputs from sellers with structured, apples-to-apples bids from qualified buyers, creating one of the most comprehensive datasets available for DG deal activity. The report examines the buyer and seller landscape, projects and portfolios brought to market, and bid dynamics across the C&I, community solar, and small utility segments.

    In 2025, sellers identified projects in 46 states and surfaced $2.2B in investment opportunities for buyers across new and operating assets. Key findings include:

    ◼ Deal sizes $5M – $50M were most common, especially in community solar and small utility
    ◼ Development fees averaged above $0.50/Wdc in all segments, with meaningful geographic variation
    ◼ Bid spreads averaged above $0.30/Wdc across all segments and system sizes
    ◼ Federal policy context impacted deal timing, pricing, and market activity throughout the year

    “DG M&A is still a fragmented, opaque market. But deals don’t move without reliable data, qualified buyers, and a process that produces comparable bids. That’s what we’ve built. We regularly share targeted insight with our best customers, and this report brings a broader slice of the market into view.” – Marc Palmer, CEO

    2025 was a unique year for the renewable energy industry, with both the news cycle and deal cycle shaped by federal policy changes. After a pause, buyers and sellers rushed to squeeze a year’s worth of DG project M&A into a few short months. A push to safe harbor projects for expiring tax credits also contributed to increased activity in the second half of the year.

    “As volumes on our platform grow, we can share sharper segmentation and more precise benchmarks. This is the first time we’ve split out C&I, community solar, and small utility. And the differences are real: who sells, how portfolios get packaged, and where pricing clears. In an opaque market, we’re making it legible.” – Aaron James, COO

  • Sheree Rodriguez: From Nurse to Entrepreneur, Inspiring Opportunity in West Texas

    Sheree Rodriguez, former nurse and owner of Bloom Haven Enterprises, is empowering leadership, career growth, and opportunity in the Midland-Odessa area.

    ODESSA, TX, UNITED STATES, March 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — MIDLAND/ODESSA, TX – Sheree Rodriguez is proving that determination, compassion, and leadership can create meaningful opportunities for others. As the owner of Bloom Haven Enterprises, Rodriguez is building a strong presence in the Midland/Odessa area while helping people grow professionally and personally through mentorship and leadership development.

    Originally from Nebraska, Rodriguez relocated to West Texas about a year and a half ago after her husband accepted a job in the oil field industry. While the move brought new challenges, it also opened the door to new opportunities. Today, Rodriguez has established herself as a driven entrepreneur committed to helping others achieve their goals.

    Before becoming one, Rodriguez spent more than two decades working as a nurse. During those 22 years, she dedicated her career to helping patients, supporting families, and providing care during some of life’s most important moments. That experience shaped her leadership style and strengthened her passion for helping people improve their lives.

    Eventually, Rodriguez realized she wanted to help others grow in new ways beyond healthcare. She decided to explore entrepreneurship, where she could guide people towards career development, financial opportunity, and personal confidence.

    That brave decision led her to Bloom Haven Enterprises, a company focused on developing professionals through hands-on experience, mentorship, and leadership training. Rodriguez quickly stood out after joining the company. Her dedication to learning, ability to motivate others, and strong leadership skills helped her advance rapidly within the organization.

    Within just three months, she was promoted to a management position.

    For Rodriguez, that early promotion was more than just a career milestone. It was confirmation that she had found a place where her values aligned with her work.

    “I chose this business because of the incredible opportunity for personal and professional growth,” Rodriguez said. “I love working with people and being able to help change people’s lives. Watching others grow and succeed is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.”

    Today, as the owner of Bloom Haven Enterprises, Rodriguez focuses on building a strong team while developing future leaders. She works closely with individuals in her office, helping them build skills in communication, leadership, and problem-solving. Her leadership philosophy is deeply influenced by her years in healthcare. As a nurse, Rodriguez learned the value of patience, teamwork, and empathy. Those same principles now guide the way she leads her business and supports her team.

    One of her biggest motivations is her family. As a mother of five, she understands the importance of building a stable future while creating opportunities for the next generation.

    “My ultimate goal is to create financial freedom for my family while also helping the people in my office achieve those same goals,” Rodriguez said. “I want others to see that success is possible when you stay committed and continue learning.”

    Her vision goes beyond personal success. Rodriguez hopes to expand her organization while continuing to mentor individuals who want to build strong careers.

    As she looks toward the future, Rodriguez remains dedicated to building an organization that prioritizes growth, mentorship, and opportunity. Through her leadership and commitment to others, Sheree Rodriguez is helping shape a new chapter of opportunity in West Texas.

    “Helping people succeed will always be at the center of what we do,” Rodriguez said. “When people grow, families grow, and communities grow.”
    Rodriguez’s story is a powerful example of how determination and compassion can lead to meaningful change. From her years in healthcare to her current role as a business owner, her focus has always remained the same: helping others improve their lives.

    About Bloom Haven Enterprises

    Bloom Haven Enterprises is focused on leadership development, professional growth, and mentorship. The company provides opportunities for people to build communication skills, develop leadership abilities, and gain hands-on experience in a supportive team environment.

  • Cultural Survival Publishes ‘In Memoriam’ Report: More Than 46 Indigenous Defenders Murdered in Latin America in 2025

    CAMBRIDGE, MA, UNITED STATES, March 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Indigenous Peoples’ rights organization, Cultural Survival, today announced the release of its annual “In Memoriam” report, documenting the harrowing murders of 46 Indigenous land and rights defenders across Latin America in 2025. The report underscores the persistent and systemic crisis facing Indigenous Peoples, who are disproportionately targeted for their essential work in stewarding and protecting vital ecosystems and territories.

    Latin America remains the world’s most dangerous region for land defense, accounting for 82% of global cases of attacks on environmental defenders. Indigenous protectors face a double threat: defending rights and the environment, and being Indigenous, with 33% of all murdered defenders in 2024 being Indigenous. The “In Memoriam” highlights that the vast majority of attacks—over 95%—are rooted in the defense of lands and territories from extractive industries.

    Key Points Highlighted:

    • Sectors of Conflict: Mining ranks first among the sectors with the highest number of murders, followed by logging and agribusiness. These industries frequently encroach upon Indigenous territories due to their wealth of natural resources.

    • Impunity Reigns: The killings as the “tip of the iceberg.” In some Latin American countries, the overall impunity rate can be 90% or higher, a figure that is often surpassed when it comes to crimes against Indigenous defenders, as authorities tend not to conduct thorough investigations.

    • Emerging Trends: The report highlights worrying new patterns, including the targeting of Indigenous defenders involved in international advocacy and a pattern of false accusations—such as terrorism—used to criminalize their land defense work.

    • Case Spotlights: The report includes profiles of murdered defenders across the region, including the murder of Vicente Fernandes Vilhalva (Guaraní-Kaiowá) in Brazil by agricultural militias following a territorial reclamation, the assassination of Francisco Marupa (Leco) in Bolivia for his opposition to illegal mining in Madidi National Park, and multiple killings in Colombia—the country with the highest number of murders globally—such as traditional doctor Jose Albeiro Liz Muchicon (Nasa) and youth leader James Tomás Guanga Quelal (Awá).

    “The loss of 46 Indigenous defenders in a single year is a profound tragedy that affects us all,” stated Alicia Moncada (Wayuu), Cultural Survival Director of Advocacy and Communications. “These individuals were the protectors of our planet, holding invaluable knowledge about how to safeguard our ecosystems. Their murders are not isolated incidents but a systemic crisis intended to intimidate and close civic space. We publish this report to honor their lives, their work, and what they stood for. Cultural Survival is committed to uplifting Indigenous voices and continuing our work for justice alongside the affected communities.”

    Cultural Survival compiled these cases from media reports, communities, and partner organizations, with the goal of making all names and legacies of defenders known, regardless of media coverage, and to work for justice for those affected.

    The report calls on national governments and the international community to take decisive action to uphold the existing legal frameworks, such as the Escazú Agreement, to ensure the effective protection of human rights and land defenders and to combat the pervasive impunity that enables these crimes.

    About Cultural Survival
    Cultural Survival (CS) is an Indigenous-led NGO and U.S.-registered non-profit that advocates for Indigenous Peoples’ rights and supports Indigenous communities’ self-determination, cultures, and political resilience since 1972. For over 53 years, Cultural Survival has partnered with Indigenous communities to advance Indigenous Peoples’ rights and cultures worldwide. CS envisions a future that respects and honors Indigenous Peoples’ inherent rights and dynamic cultures, deeply and richly interwoven in lands, languages, spiritual traditions, and artistic expression, rooted in self-determination and self-governance. The core of Cultural Survival’s efforts rests on the principles of supporting, amplifying efforts, and raising awareness of self-determination for Indigenous communities.

    • Breaking In: Global online interviews and portfolio reviews.

  • INTENNSE and Inspiring Children Foundation Announce Landmark Mental Health Alliance

    INTENNSE and Inspiring Children Foundation Announce Landmark Mental Health Alliance

    The mental and emotional challenges in tennis have been hiding in plain sight for decades, and we believe it’s time for a different model.”
    — Charles Allen, CEO of INTENNSE

    ATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, March 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — INTENNSE today announced an alliance with the Inspiring Children Foundation (ICF), which will serve as the exclusive league-level charity for INTENNSE. Through this alliance, INTENNSE will integrate ICF’s best-in-class mental health tools and curriculum into the fabric of the league.

    Tennis is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful, disciplined, and storied sports in the world, yet it has also long been among the most isolating. Athletes are often expected to train, compete, and travel alone, carrying significant emotional pressure and burden without consistent, structured support, and this isolation has been normalized for generations even as its mental and emotional consequences have become impossible to ignore.

    INTENNSE is challenging that legacy by building a league structure that reminds players and families, at every level, that they are not alone and that authentically connecting to oneself and others is not a weakness but a performance advantage.

    INTENNSE is the first professional tennis league built from the ground up to put the athlete first, to embed emotional and mental health into the league’s architecture, business model, and community experience rather than treating mental health as an add-on or afterthought.

    “INTENNSE’s approach spans generations and levels of play, bringing together adults, seniors, juniors, recreational players, league competitors, and elite professionals in a shared community grounded in well‑being and belonging” said INTENNSE Chief Executive Officer Charles Allen. “The mental and emotional challenges in tennis have been hiding in plain sight for decades, and we believe it’s time for a different model. Working together with the Inspiring Children Foundation, we are building a league where emotional and mental health are on the court, in the locker room, and in the stands, where no player, coach, or family ever has to feel like they are carrying the weight of the sport alone.

    Together, we want every person who experiences INTENNSE to feel seen, supported, and reminded that their whole life, not just their forehand, matters.”

    The partnership with the Inspiring Children Foundation is a natural extension of this vision. For more than 25 years, ICF has developed and refined tennis-specific mental health tools, curriculum, and programming, grounded in its 10 Pillars of Healing, Growth, and High-Performance Living. Originally developed in elite training and travel environments, and then honed through decades of real world application with at-risk youth and athletes, these pillars now sit at the heart of the alliance with INTENNSE.

    “INTENNSE is aligning professional tennis with something we have seen to be true for more than two decades – that when you prioritize a person’s inner life with the same intention as their outer performance, everything changes,” said Ryan Wolfington, Founder of the Inspiring Children Foundation. “By bringing our 10 Pillars and the Not Alone Program into the ecosystem of a professional league, we are helping to normalize seeking support, build emotional resilience, and create a culture where players are celebrated not just for how they compete, but for how they grow as people.”

    Through this partnership, INTENNSE is integrating the Inspiring Children Foundation’s Not Alone Program across the league, ensuring that emotional and mental health support reaches players, coaches, staff, and the broader community. The Not Alone Program includes the: Not Alone Challenge, Not Alone Summit, Not Alone Awards, and the Not Alone Curriculum & Mental Health Toolkit (a comprehensive suite of tools and resources designed to foster healing, growth, and connection). By embedding these programs into league operations, INTENNSE is emphasizing that support should not be something players and families have to search for, it will be present wherever and however anyone participates in the ecosystem.

    This vision is powered by a uniquely diverse and experienced leadership group that includes lived experience experts, former professional players, teaching pros, league competitors, recreational players, junior athletes, junior parents, thought leaders, governance experts, and entertainment innovators.

    From decades of experience in tennis and in human development, it has become clear to ICF and the staff at INTENNSE that when well‑being comes first, players tend to stay with sports longer, engage more deeply, strengthen their sense of identity, and achieve more sustainable performance. Together, INTENNSE and the Inspiring Children Foundation are creating an environment where athletes are supported in getting their inner life right with the same intention as their outside performance, fully embracing a Whole Human approach to development.

    With the 2026 INTENNSE season set to begin on June 5, the Inspiring Children Foundation’s tools will be actively present on the court and throughout the community.

    INTENNSE’s 2026 season will run through Championship Weekend, August 2, 2026. For more information visit: www.intennse.com.
