SnapGRID® LX2 sport court tiles also feature slip-resistant GatorSKIN surface texture with perforations for a self-draining tile that provides a dry surface all year round.
Perhaps the most exceptional feature of SnapGRID® LX2 sport tiles is their performance- boasting outstanding rebound rates for basketball, pickleball, volleyball, tennis, and more. LX2 interlocking sport court tiles are easy to install, easy to clean, and ideal for multi-purpose sports courts. For an ultra-durable, DIY-friendly and versatile indoor and outdoor sports court, LX2 interlocking sports tiles are a great option.

One drawback to SnapGRID® LX2 tiles is that the vibrant, full-color tiles do not resemble the traditional wood sport court that some people prefer.

SnapGRID® WP Sports Court Planks
To recreate the classic aesthetic of a wood sports court with the inherent durability of rubber, look no further than shock-absorbing SnapGRID® WP sports court planks. Boasting anti-slip and impact-resistant properties to help protect athletes’ joints, WP wood-look sport tiles are the best way to provide a more comfortable playing surface, while still offering exceptional ball bounce rebound rates for basketball pickleball, and tennis sport courts.
SnapGRID® WP wood-grain look planks are slip-resistant and easy to clean and maintain, unlike wood floors that require regular maintenance to keep their quality. WP wood grain-look sport planks can be installed for temporary and permanent sports courts in any indoor residential or commercial space. Available in three neutral wood tones, SnapGRIP® WP tiles are designed to suit any design and can be customized with logos and game lines for any sport. The drawback of installing WP planks for a sports court is the inherently reduced coverage of the plank format compared to larger format tiles. If greater coverage in less time is desired, large format SnapGRID® XXL tiles can easily achieve this goal!
SnapGRID® XXL Sports Court Panels
For a durable, economical sports court that does not require a concrete or asphalt pad for installation, SnapGRID® XXL sport court base panels have you covered! XXL sport court panels are designed to be installed over a compacted gravel base as a concrete alternative, saving the extra cost of pouring a concrete base. They are ideal for basketball court tiles, pickleball court tiles, volleyball court tiles, tennis court tiles, etc., or even as a solid foundation for artificial turf fields.
Non-slip SnapGRID® XXL sports panels are self-draining, portable, and easy to install with an easy-to-follow directional interlocking system. XXL court panels can be easily assembled, disassembled, and transported – ideal for temporary sports court projects of any size. In addition to providing exceptional ball bounce performance and added traction, SnapGRID® XXL tiles have XpandBAND technology built in so that they can withstand changes in temperature all year round without the need to remove them for winter! If a sports court with a bold and impactful aesthetic is important, the downside to XXL sport court panels is that they are only available in two neutral tones. For vivid colors, check out SnapGRID® LX2 sport tiles for a vibrant color palette. For the classic appeal of wood, SnapGRID® WP sport planks are available in three classic wood-grain tones.
