This Pro-Floor™ Court Protector is the ideal way to protect the floor of basketball courts. Chroma-Bond® Digital Imprinting on the underside of the PVC woodgrain top layer allows you to customize the look and message and protects your customized graphic. A durable non-slip base ensures the court protector stays in firm and securely in place, and lays flat to prevent tripping hazards and provide a safe walking surface. These protectors also can be used in gymnasiums and on similar surfaces.
A truly professional addition to any basketball court!

Make your brand noticed.
Whether you want team branding, logos, trademarks, or sponsorship advertising on your padding, our in-house printing processes can make it pop. With attractive graphics, wall padding can serve as much more than a protective barrier between players and injury. Graphic artwork becomes a focal point that showcases your facility and can provide a revenue stream that offsets the cost of the printed pads or mats.
Chroma-Bond® Imprinting
We place your brand on our products using our exclusive Chroma-Bond® Imprinting technology. This is the industry-leading gold standard of imprinting. Our reputation is second to none as we are known for producing thousands upon thousands of sharp, crisp, and lasting multi-color images on our wide range of products. These products are then delivered to teams and venues that house all levels of athletes, from recreational to the professionals.
We introduced Chroma-Bond® in 2006, and the world got to know our thick, individually-applied, double coating process that literally bonds an image into the vinyl. Our team of skilled craftspeople use the latest graphics technology to produce custom imprints that are highly resistant to scuffing, sunlight, and weathering – plus are highly spike, cleat, and racquet resistant. In fact, this imprinting is so remarkably durable that some of the items made when Chroma-Bond® was first introduced are still in use today.
Chroma-Bond® Digital Imprinting
Our digital imprinting is best described as our Chroma Bond® technology taken to the next level – where our technicians do the seemingly impossible. When a particular project is larger than life, meaning it will not fit onto our standard-sided equipment, we turn to the next generation of printing.
Digital imprinting utilizes our latest, state-of-the-art wide-format equipment and the result is unlike any other you have seen. The final digitally-printed product, which often is a large-scale windscreen, displays intricate, lifelike images that are simply not possible to produce with other imprinting processes. Our digital technology enables the design, development, and production to convey an accurate and creative presentation of a team’s brand or a venue’s message. Our digital imprinting enables images and communications to come to life on sports products – products that protect both athletes and the valuable assets found at a sports venue.

Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions that come with your basketball system to ensure a proper, safe installation!
In the winter, if you do not plan to play basketball on your outdoor system, it is best to remove the net. Otherwise, you might cover your net with a trash bag and duct tape during heavy periods of snow/rain.
In the summer sun, polycarbonate quickly yellows and becomes brittle. As a result, we recommend acrylic for outdoor backboards. Acrylic does not become yellow, cloudy, or brittle over time and offers much better long-term durability.
A breakaway rim contains a hinge and a spring at the point where it attaches to the backboard so that it can bend downward when a player dunks a basketball, and then quickly snaps back into a horizontal position when the player releases it.
This allows players to dunk the ball without shattering the backboard. It also reduces wrist injuries.
We carry backboards that range from 48″ wide up to 72″ wide. The most common backboards are rectangular, which is what the NBA and other major basketball teams use.
The NBA and NCAA use regulation backboards that are 6 feet (72″) wide by 3.5 feet (42″) tall.
Generally, we recommend choosing a backboard that is at least 54” wide as bank shots are impossible on anything less. However, smaller backboards save on space and might be the best option for slender driveways.
It depends on your needs. If the hoop is for a growing child, an adjustable hoop is likely a better option. For example, the Rampage system adjusts from 6.5 feet up to 10 feet.
If you are looking for an adjustable hoop, also pay attention to the ease of adjustability. If tools are required every time you want to adjust the goal, that may be a deal breaker. Instead, look for basketball goals using a spring-aided crank system and built-in rim height indicators to ensure precision.
On the other hand, fixed-height basketball hoops are durable and built to last. Once they are installed, you are done. Generally, fixed-height hoops are set to the NBA and NCAA regulation height of 10 feet.
In basketball, the overhang is the distance from the front of the backboard to the front of the pole.
It’s important to have some space so that players aren’t running into the pole often. However, too much overhang shrinks the court and makes the backboard unsteady.
Ideally, shop for hoops with 2 feet to 4 feet
Polycarbonate quickly yellows in UV sunlight and becomes very brittle in a matter of just 2-3 years. As a result, many vendors stay strictly with acrylic for outdoor, clear backboards. Acrylic does not become yellow, cloudy, or brittle over time and offers much better long-term durability than a polycarbonate backboard.
Yes, when using a metal-framed backboard, bolt-on padding is strongly recommended. The padding helps prevent head and hand injuries. According to NCAA, FIBA, and NBA official rules, the backboard and backboard support structure must be padded.
Yes, polycarbonate and acrylic are both strong, durable plastics. In fact, polycarbonate is more resilient than acrylic initially. However, acrylic holds up in sunlight, withstands impact, and remains clear (scratch-free) over time. On the other hand, polycarbonate becomes brittle, yellow, and cloudy in UV light plus it scratches easily.
Additionally, acrylics are less expensive to produce, and they are lightweight which keeps shipping costs down. If you’re looking for a portable goal or worry about the installation, the fact that the material is lightweight is just another reason acrylic is the best basketball backboard material.
