June Highlights

It’s been another busy month for the team, with projects taking us from Buckingham Palace for Trooping the Colour to two major darts events in Europe. We’ve also got some news and recognition we’re proud to share, along with a well earned staff spotlight. And we’ve published a full behind-the-scenes case study on our landmark redesign for the 2026 World Championship Snooker at the Crucible Theatre, one of the most significant projects in our 25 year history with the event.

Trooping the Colour

When the BBC is broadcasting a national occasion to millions, the infrastructure behind it has to be right first time. For this year’s Trooping the Colour, they trusted us to deliver the camera platforms and commentary facilities their coverage depended on.

Our camera towers ran the length of The Mall, with a tower on the steps of the Queen Victoria Memorial giving cameras the elevated sightlines the broadcast called for. At Mountbatten Green, we designed and installed the commentary structure, complete with draping, carpeting, air conditioning, and furniture, creating a controlled environment for the client.

Working across landmark locations like this leaves no room for error, and it’s exactly the kind of work we take real pride in.

World Cup of Darts ๐ŸŽฏ

Our team was in Frankfurt delivering the broadcast and event infrastructure for the 2026 World Cup of Darts, covering everything from venue truss structures and camera platforms to the commentary box, power distribution and rigging throughout the arena.

With this now our sixth World Cup of Darts under our belt, it’s a project we know inside out, and one where that experience shows in how smoothly the build comes together under the pressure of a live broadcast schedule.

A proud project for the whole team, from crew to trusted partners to the venue team.

Nordic Darts ๐ŸŽฏ

Delivering live broadcast infrastructure takes far more than what audiences see on screen. For the Nordic Darts event in Copenhagen, our team installed the structural and broadcast infrastructure behind the production, from flown trussing and staging through to camera positions, commentary facilities and cable management.

A coordinated approach between our team, the venue and fellow contractors was key to a smooth and efficient delivery, and it’s this kind of collaborative groundwork that ensures the production runs seamlessly for players, officials, broadcasters and spectators alike.

Client Feedback

Following Trooping the Colour, we were delighted to hear from Louise Barina at the BBC, with a special mention for Jamie, whose calm problem solving and leadership left a lasting impression on site. Thank you, Louise, for such kind words, it’s a real credit to Jamie and everyone involved.

Team of the Year Finalists ๐Ÿ†

We’ve been named a finalist for Team of the Year at the East Midlands Chamber Enterprising Women Awards. It’s recognition of the hard work, collaboration and pride our whole team brings to every project, and one we’re genuinely proud to see reflected here.

Congratulations to the other finalists, and thank you to the East Midlands Chamber for the recognition.

Staff Spotlight๐ŸŒŸ

A huge well done to Max, our Design Technician, who recently completed the Geneva Triathlon in 3 hours and 16 minutes, a brilliant personal achievement in its own right.

Max has also raised over ยฃ1,500 for the Wings for Life Spinal Cord Research Foundation, in support of a close friend who suffered a spinal cord injury last year. Well done, Max, from all of us at Trans-Sport.tv.

World Championship Snooker Case Study

Having supported the World Championship for more than 25 years, our team took on the most significant redesign of the event infrastructure in decades for 2026, reconfiguring the broadcast and audience environment at the iconic Crucible Theatre.

Working within a historic auditorium left little room for error, so the complete structure was pre-built and tested at our facility before installation. Across the Crucible, Tudor Square and the Winter Garden, we delivered broadcast infrastructure, elevated commentary booths, bespoke camera platforms and additional VIP seating, creating improved sightlines for audiences in the room and at home.
