What Is the Right Sports Flooring for Indoor Handball Courts?

Flooring for handball can consist of a number of different materials. When a DIY installation with tiles is in the works, the tiles often have a plastic base that provides the stability required. Many of these types of tiles have a vinyl layer over the top, mimicking the look of wood tiles or slate, which delivers a great look.

Flooring made for sports courts needs to create a safe surface for athletes, so they can avoid injury. If the flooring is too hard, athletes run the risk of suffering stress injuries in the lower body, including the ankles, knees, and hips.

Having a shock-absorbing property with these modular tiles, while also delivering stability for making cuts in shoes and for providing a consistent ball bounce, is a key to creating a safe and efficient court. Whether these are indoor handball courts that will be for the public or will be for a private club, having high-quality flooring is essential to the health of the athletes.

As another advantage of modular tiling for indoor handball courts, the installer can cut them to fit a particular size and coverage area. Lock the modular tiles together until they reach the edge of the room, where the installer can cut each individual tile to fit the dimensions of the remaining space.

Can You Use Vinyl Topped Plastic Tiles for a Handball Court?

One of the best modular tiles for indoor handball courts consists of plastic tile bases with a vinyl top layer. These tiles pop together quickly, creating a simple DIY install.

The plastic base tray contains an interlocking system, which will hold it together under the stress of athletes playing handball on the finished floor. The vinyl layer has a design that allows it to resemble wood or other materials, creating a high-end look.

The Basketball Court Gym Floor Pro Tile has a base tray layer consisting of no-break polypropylene plastic, providing excellent stability. The vinyl layer resembles a maple wood basketball court, including a wear layer that ensures the tiles will not show unwanted wear, even when used regularly for handball games or practice.



The Max Tile Raised Floor Tile is another popular choice for handball courts, featuring a durable plastic polypropylene base with a 3 mm thick vinyl layer. The vinyl has faux oak, cherry, maple, and walnut finishes available, as well as a slate finish. The wear layer on the top of each tile has a 15-year rating for its finish.



For those who want to create a handball court with a different look, the TileFlex Floor Tile is a good choice. These interlocking tiles have a vinyl layer over the plastic base that can resemble a traditional stone or granite finish.

With these plastic base tiles in an enclosed handball court, installers often install a thin rubber layer as an underlayment to provide just a bit of cushioning and to suppress unwanted noise.

Can You Use Colorful Plastic Tiles for Indoor Handball Courts?

For those athletic clubs, schools, churches, or YMCAs that want to create a colorful look in the handball flooring, the Court Floor Flat Top Tile is the perfect solution.

These firm plastic tiles consist of solid red, blue, black, or gray colors. Because the hidden interlocking system on the underside of the plastic base tray is universal for all colors, installers can mix and match colors. Installers can paint game or court lines atop the plastic, giving this floor plenty of versatility.

These polypropylene plastic tiles have an easy-to-assemble interlocked design, making them an ideal choice for places that may be relying on volunteers and members of the public to install the handball court. Should a single tile in the layout become damaged, just pop that tile out of place and add a new tile.

This model of handball flooring tile is even suitable over carpeting if it is low pile and no pad carpeting. In all installs over concrete, a thin rubber underlayment layer is a recommended addition.
