Robbins Sports Surfaces Provides the Championship Stage for NCAA D-II, D-III and Big East Tournaments
Robbins Sports Surfaces is once again the trusted foundation for championship play in the NCAA Division II and III tournaments, as well as the Big East Tournament. This year, every game in these highly competitive events will take place on a Robbins surface, reinforcing the trust the collegiate sports community has on the company’s legacy of delivering high-performance sports flooring at the highest levels of collegiate competition.
This year, the DII Men’s tournament is set to play at the Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana, while the DIII Men’s tournament is scheduled to be played at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, Indiana. That means that across 136 total games, lasting an estimated 272 hours of competition, at least 695 players across 139 participating teams take the court on Robbins All-Star® Portable Basketball Courts, relying on its superior performance and player safety benefits.
The Big East Tournament, a marquee event in college basketball that has been held at Madison Square Garden since 1983, continues to trust Robbins Sports Surfaces for annual setup, storage and care (whether that is a thorough and complete sand and repaint, or just a screen and coat) due to Robbin’s Sports Surfaces reputation to provide superior results.
“Championship basketball demands a championship-level playing surface. At Robbins, we take pride in providing courts that enhance player performance, reduce fatigue and improve safety,” said John Ficks, Global Sales and Marketing Manager, Robbins Sports Surfaces. “Knowing that every dribble, cut, pass and jump in these tournaments will happen on a Robbins court is a testament to our dedication to the game and the athletes who compete at the highest level.”
While March brings the spotlight to college hoops, Robbins Sports Surfaces plays a vital role year-round, equipping teams with the courts on which they trust to train, improve and compete. From preseason preparation to tournament glory, Robbins is the foundation for champions.
As the excitement of these tournaments unfolds, Robbins Sports Surfaces wishes all teams and athletes the best of luck in their pursuit of a championship.
