Installing an LED screen in a gym has become an essential tool for amateur sports clubs. From showcasing partners to enhancing match-day atmosphere and professionalizing the club’s image, the benefits are numerous. Here’s everything you need to know.

Why install a screen in your gym?

A screen in a gym isn’t just for displaying the score. It transforms the spectator experience and creates value for your sponsors:

Partner visibility: broadcast advertising spots before, during and after matches
Match animation: player announcements, game highlights, celebrations
Club communication: upcoming events, results, merchandise
Professional image: spectators enjoy an experience worthy of professional clubs

What screen size should you choose?

For a standard-sized gym (handball, basketball, volleyball), here are the recommendations:

Gym capacity	Recommended size	Minimum resolution
Under 300 seats	55 to 65 inches	Full HD (1080p)
300 to 800 seats	75 to 85 inches	Full HD (1080p)
Over 800 seats	2 screens or LED wall	4K recommended

The key is that the screen must be visible from all stands. Positioning it high up, slightly angled toward the audience, is ideal.

How much does it cost?

The budget depends on the screen you choose:

65” TV screen: 500 to 1,000 EUR
75” professional screen: 1,000 to 2,000 EUR
85” professional screen: 2,000 to 3,500 EUR

On top of this comes the digital signage solution to manage content. At Neopro, subscriptions start at 1,500 EUR/year excl. VAT and include all the software, the remote control app and video templates.

How to finance the installation?

The good news: the screen can be funded by your partners. Here are the three most common approaches:

Existing sponsors: offer them digital visibility alongside traditional banners. Most will accept a moderate surcharge to appear on screen.
New partners: the screen attracts businesses that weren’t interested in static banners or boards.
Municipal grants: some local authorities fund equipment for municipal sports halls. Check with your local sports department.

The actual installation

With a solution like Neopro, installation takes less than 5 minutes:

Connect the Neopro box to the screen (HDMI cable)
Connect to the box from your phone (no wifi needed in the gym)
Control content with the remote control app

No construction work, no network cabling, no technician required.

Conclusion

An LED screen in a gym is an investment that pays for itself quickly through partners. The most important thing is to choose a suitable signage solution that lets you manage content easily, even without technical skills.
