Changes to Gym floor
We are completely replacing our gymnasium floor... Pulled out the old, down to the cement and putting in new.
It is a church gym that gets a lot of basketball play. Decent sized, 50 x 84 feet. There is integrated into the court is a volleyball court (center line of BBall court will be Center line of volleyball court) with holes drilled into floor & Cement for Vball poles, we just drop them in deep holes) In the past vball lines were dark red, and the center line for Vball was about 4 inches offset from Center line of Basketball, and it was easy for players and refs to confuse the two. We have solved that by moving the vball holes, and it now will line up with center line. I have also asked for vball lines to be in white or yellow, so they are easy to distinguish from black bball lines. Court will have to stay exactly where it is, as we are not moving baskets, but other than that the floor is a literally blank. I wondered if any on this group had seen anything in the paint/line schemes that would be worth considering in the many gyms that you have all seen? Just mining for good ideas... since we can make changes easilly now.

Depending on your lighting, white lines can get lost in the glare from across the court. I'd recommend going with a darker color (like red) that will still contrast with black basketball lines.

May I suggest forgoing lines for basketball and just using a belt for out of bounds and using permanent 2" by 2" square floor markers for the intersections of the volleyball court bourdary lines and using removable gym tape for volleyball season.
