Guidelines for Borrowing Line Markers

  • Users must be certified. Anyone signing out air pressurized line markers must be certified (to be certified you must attend the free workshop and have your name and organization registered with the City of Edmonton). To register, please call 311.
  • Seminars / Workshops last 1/2 to 1 hour. The workshop consists of hands-on training in the use of marking equipment and a hand out for field use. Sessions will also provide training on practical methods to marking various types of sports fields.
  • Equipment is booked on a first-come, first-served basis. Equipment may only be signed out for overnight use on weekdays from Monday through Thursday, and for the weekend, Friday through Sunday. We have two locations:
  • It is the user's responsibility to have a suitable vehicle for hauling the equipment.
  • No vehicles are to be driven onto the turf area and the site is to be left clean and tidy.
  • The use of any chemicals or any environmentally unfriendly product in the pre-mixed paint is prohibited. Any instance will be investigated by Alberta Environment and the City of Edmonton. Violators will be charged and all privileges will be revoked.
  • You will be required to provide us the sites that you will be marking and what fields. We require this information to determine the amount of paint to be given out. We will not reserve or hand out any paint until we are supplied with this information.
  • It will be the responsibility of the Sports Field Team to determine what the mixing ratio will be. The standard ratio is 2 to 1 but if there is a heavy demand on the paint this ratio could go to 3 to 1 so that the limited supply can be stretched out as much as possible. The number of fields being marked by the group and the district will determine the amount of paint given out. Our responsibility is to stay within our designated budget. When the paint is used up, there will be no new supplies forthcoming.
    • Small Soccer - perimeter, centre, 18 foot circle for goal crease ½ pail
    • Medium/Large Soccer - full marks 1 pail
    • Football - perimeter, yard lines, 2 sets hash lines 3 pails
  • The City of Edmonton does not give any warranty as to the quality, condition or sufficiency of the equipment for any purpose and the equipment is being used at my own risk and is being provided to me on a strictly “as-is” basis. It is understood by the user that use of the equipment may involve risks and dangers of serious injury and death. The user fully accepts and assumes all risks of using the equipment and takes responsibility for all losses, costs and damages which may occur as a result of using the equipment.
    • Borrowers may contact a Crew Leader for questions. Contact information will be provided at material pickup.
