Major Performance Factors of Wooden Sports Flooring | Sports Surfaces Dubai

 

An athlete’s performance can be influenced by the several important factors with which the floor systems are designed. There are certain scientific facts behind this connection. A wooden sports flooring is irrefutably connected with athletic performance. So various standards and factors are needed to consider for the installation and maintenance of sports floorings.

Hardwood sports floors have high durability, flexibility, and resilience and also capable of supporting athletic performance. They are also of low maintenance. But these are not the only factors to consider for a performance-enhancing wooden sports floors. Here, the leading company for sports flooring, Dubai provides you the important wooden sports flooring features for the successful performance of athletes.

1.     Shock Absorption

One of the key factors affecting an athlete’s performance is shock absorption. Indoor sports flooring surfaces that accommodate sports like basketball, should provide consistent shock absorption. Wooden sports floors with excellent shock absorption are best suited for various sports like basketball, volleyball aerobic training. One of the valuable features of the hardwood sports floor with high shock absorption is its resilience.

Wood sports floor must provide a high level of shock absorption for the comfort of athletes. Floors with high shock absorption prevent players from having fatigue. The material with which the floor is made contributes mostly to the shock absorption.

2.     Basketball Rebound

The bounce of the ball is very important in various sports including basketball. Basketballs are always used for checking how well an inflated ball will bounce off the floor. If the ball is bounced off a soft floor, the vertical ball rebound will be minimum. It is due to the floor’s higher force reduction say the experts of gym flooring, Dubai. Ball rebound and shock absorption are directly related. You require at least 93% of ball rebound in basketball courts.

3.     Surface Friction

In a wooden sports court, an ideal amount of surface friction is necessary for the athletes to perform well. Less surface friction will cause athletes to unwantedly slip across the sports floor and more surface friction creates a hurdle for players.

The completion on the hardwood floor assumes a huge role in how much surface friction. So for wooden sportsflooring, the coefficient of friction should meet the recommended standards to be considered non-hazardous.

4.     Vertical Deflection

The vertical deflection can be measured during an athlete’s point of impact. A vertical deflection of several inches would happen when an athlete jumps on a trampoline. Vertical deflection is critical for foot stability in various sports like aerobics, volleyball, and basketball. If vertical deflection is more, it leads to the athlete being slowed down or cause instability. High levels of shock absorption are one of the reasons for more vertical deflection.

5.     Area Deflection

In a wooden sports flooring, the measurement of energy dispersed throughout the floor is the area deflection. Area deflection is measured considering the floor’s capability of containing deflected area. The area of deflection is one of the prime factors to consider for the high performance of players.

Uniformity in the above features is necessary for wooden sports flooring to ensure consistency in athletic games.
