As long as you're working 3-person. Our biggest boys and girls holiday tournaments here are on four different college courts. The first two rounds of each tourney are 2-person and it isn't a lot of fun. (Working the tournament is a lot of fun, covering that much area with two people isn't)

A school locally built a new high school building a few years ago and put 94-foot courts in both gyms. They're the only high school I've seen do that. I agree it does make the game better.

One of our high schools used to also have a small, private college that no longer exists.

To this day I've never (elsewhere) seen a 94x50 court squeezed into a gym that probably has about a foot of room beyond the boundary lines. Because of that, the floor feels *huge* there.

Oh, we work 2-person in that conference.
