Wendy

3.5 Inch Heavy Duty Posts / Primary

$17,414.83

Wendy from SportsPlay is a versatile commercial playground structure designed to keep children ages 2–12 climbing, sliding, communicating, imagining, and exploring. With seven total play events—including five elevated and two ground-level activities—Wendy combines physical challenges with interactive features to create a well-rounded outdoor play experience.

Children looking for physical adventure can choose between a rock-climbing wall and bedrock climber. Both activities encourage reaching, gripping, stepping, and coordinated full-body movement while helping children build strength, balance, motor planning, and confidence.

Once elevated, children have two exciting ways to return to ground level. The double-wall slide creates a classic playground experience with opportunities for side-by-side fun, while the bump-wave slide adds changes in elevation for another exciting sliding experience.

Wendy also offers plenty of opportunities for imaginative and social play. A guard wall with interactive wheels can inspire pretend driving and creative adventures, while Submarine Talk Tubes located on both sides of the structure encourage children to communicate and interact across the playground. A cozy bench panel provides another ground-level space for children to gather, pause, and engage with friends.

Safe deck-to-deck steps connect elevated areas, while an accessible transfer station provides another route into the play structure. Together, these features create multiple ways for children with different interests and abilities to engage with the playground.

Footer Options (Varies by Product)

In-Ground Mounting

This is the most common installation method for playground and shade structures. It involves digging holes and setting the posts directly into concrete that is poured during installation.

Surface Mount (Anchor Bolt)

With this method, posts are secured to an existing solid surface—typically concrete—using specialized base plates and anchor bolt hardware provided with the product.

Ground Spike

This is the simplest mounting option, using a sledgehammer to drive stakes through a footer plate to secure the posts in the desired location. Ground spikes are not recommended for sandy or loamy soil conditions and are only available for select product sets.

FAQs

What are the payment requirements for an order?

Full payment is typically required upfront due to the custom nature of many products. Exceptions can be made for governmental entities through approved purchase orders. All payments must be received prior to the start of installation.

Are installation services available?

Installation services are available for commercial playground projects. A qualified and insured professional can be arranged to handle the setup, and quotes are provided upon request. The goal is to ensure a smooth, safe, and efficient installation process from start to finish.

Is expedited shipping an option for my order?

Expedited shipping is not currently available. Due to the size and nature of playground LTL shipments, most freight carriers are unable to guarantee faster delivery. Unless otherwise noted, all products ship according to the estimated lead times listed on each product page.

How is the estimated lead time calculated?

Estimated lead time refers to the amount of time it typically takes for a product to be prepared and shipped after an order is placed. For many commercial playground items, manufacturing begins only once the order is received. For example, if the lead time is listed as 8 to 10 weeks, that means it will take approximately8 to 10 weeks for the product to be manufactured, packaged, and shipped from the warehouse.
