2012 continued to be an amazing year for Riley. We were honoured by the Sens Foundation’s decision to select us as the official dasher board manufacturer for their 20 rink R.I.N.C. Project. According to the Sens Foundation, these rinks “will assist with building a sense of community while promoting physically active lifestyles for children and adults of all ages in the RINC neighbourhoods.” You can read more about the project here.

Shortly after we were awarded the contract, we got to work building the rink at Jules Morin Park. With the help of some pretty amazing volunteers including Senators Coach Paul McLean, pictured here with Riley Manufacturing President Sean Riley.

Keeping Our Kids Safe

Designed for Safety

In the mid-80s we went on to revolutionize safety in baseball with our invention of the SuperBase. The system, approved by the American Little League, when installed with the magnetic anchors is designed to dislodge on impact from an improper or fast slide. Yet another safety innovation, designed and manufactured by Riley Manufacturing.

Built to Last

In 1984 we changed the face of hockey forever, with our invention of the Cush-Net™ hockey goal frame and magnetic release system. It fast became one of the biggest changes to the game of hockey ever adopted by the NHL. Our pride and joy, each frame is manufactured to a high standard of quality and durability. Learn more here.
