To build a high-standard indoor volleyball court, it is not only necessary to design the dimensions in accordance with international standards, but also to select the right floor materials to ensure the safety and game experience of the athletes. The following are a variety of common indoor volleyball court material options for your reference:
Standard dimensions of indoor volleyball courts
The standard dimensions of indoor volleyball courts are: Competition area: 18 meters (length) × 9 meters (width)
Free zone: A free zone of at least 3 meters wide should be left around the competition venue; at least 5 meters is recommended for international competitions
Head clearance: at least 7 meters from the ground; international competitions recommend more than 12.5 meters
Floor requirements: The surface should be flat, non-reflective, and have good anti-slip and shock absorption
Wooden floor: Traditional beauty and professional performance
Advantages:
Wooden floor is the first choice for many high-level competitions and gymnasiums. It has a natural appearance, good foot feel and elasticity, especially suitable for volleyball sports with frequent jumps and fast movements. Its natural shock absorption helps reduce sports injuries.
Precautions:
Wooden floors need to be waxed and polished regularly to maintain their elasticity and gloss and prevent wear or cracking.
Synthetic flooring: cost-effective multi-layer structure
Advantages:
Synthetic sports flooring adopts a multi-layer structure design (such as plywood + elastic pad + surface PVC), which combines comfort and durability. Colors, markings, and even patterns can be customized to meet the personalized needs of clubs or brands.
Applicable scenarios:
Applicable to mid-to-high-end volleyball halls and multi-functional sports centers, with convenient construction and simple maintenance.
Rubber flooring: Excellent shock absorption and sound absorption
Advantages:
Rubber flooring has excellent elasticity and can effectively relieve the impact of knees and ankles and protect athletes' joints. It also has good sound absorption, suitable for indoor use, and reduces noise interference.
Applicable scenarios:
It is often seen in training halls, youth sports centers or rehabilitation training areas.
PVC sports flooring: uniform bounce and easy maintenance
Advantages:
PVC sports flooring provides uniform ball rebound effect and good friction coefficient, and is one of the common choices for modern indoor volleyball courts. Rich colors, quick installation, and easy daily cleaning.
Cost-effective advantages:
Applicable to school gymnasiums, professional training halls, etc., with strong adaptability and high return on investment.
Vinyl flooring: a practical choice for anti-skid and wear-resistant
Advantages:
Vinyl flooring has excellent durability, anti-skid and pressure resistance, and is suitable for venues with high traffic and high frequency of use. The surface texture is comfortable and does not age easily even after long-term use.
Applicable scenarios:
Recommended for multi-purpose gymnasiums or community sports centers.
Carpet flooring: soft touch, special training purposes
Advantages:
Although not often used in formal competitions, carpet sports flooring provides a softer touch and a comfortable sports environment for certain special needs (such as rehabilitation training and youth teaching).
Use scenarios:
Can be used for children's volleyball, recreational training programs or leisure activity areas in fitness venues.
