Looking to get some ideas on what y'all have done to improve the look of your weight rooms and locker rooms. Ours need some improvements for sure. Things that I would like to replace or add are: new lockers, new flooring, wall signs, and goal/team boards at the very least. Have y'all done anything else that would help improve how it looks? Also, if you have done any of these things or others who did you order through?

In our JV locker room we hang 8x10s action shots of all conference players and action shots of college players. We are trying to establish culture. We are trying to establish what success looks like on the field and what it can lead to. Most of the guys who are all conference are also our college football players.
In our varsity locker room we post action shots and team pictures of teams who make the quarterfinals, and/or conference championship teams. These posters lead to the door outside, so they are one of the last things players see on their way out. On the opposite wall leading to the field we have individual posters of all Americans and conference players of the year.
Our yearbook teacher takes all the pictures so that part is easy. Walmart photo and shutterfly have easy to use templates to make posters with labels. So the posters have the name of the player and their accomplishments. For instance "Joe Blow LB '16 All Conference, All Region, Coach's All State, etc. I make them and get cheap frames. Then we give the players one to take home. So it is their gift for making all conference. Its about 12 bucks to make 2 of each individual poster for all conference players. My AD loves them so he reimburses me. After a successful year it can cost me about 300 dollars, but it is worth it. We have kids stand in front of the pictures during the summer saying I'm going to be up on that wall.
In the weight room our art teacher helped me design posters with our core values. There are no individual or team achievements in the weight room. It is about the process and work in the weight room.

I got a 50" flat screen and placed it inside my coaches office looking out of the window that goes in to our locker room. I use google slides to post anything I need: practice schedule, monthly calendars, meeting times/days, offensive/defensive goal boards, motivational slogans, anything, possibilities are endless.
As far as the lockers go, probably need to go through the school district, that's what I did a few years ago...had to prove that they were so banged up that kids could break in to them whether they were locked or not.
