As part of the partnership, Limei will install its NCAA-approved Professional Basketball Court Flooring in 32 Division I arenas starting from the 2025-2026 season. The flooring features North American hard maple surfaces, optimized ball rebound rates (≥92%), and shock absorption (≥55%) to meet the rigorous demands of college basketball’s fast-paced gameplay.
Each installation will be customized to match the university’s branding, with options for team logo inlays, school color accents, and custom court markings. Limei will also provide annual maintenance services to ensure the flooring retains its performance and appearance throughout the season.
“The NCAA is committed to providing student-athletes with the best possible competition environments,” said Ms. Lynn Holzman, NCAA Vice President of Women’s Basketball. “Limei’s high-quality flooring meets our strict standards for safety and performance, and we’re excited to partner with a brand that shares our dedication to excellence.”
The first round of installations will begin in summer 2025, with venues including the University of Kentucky’s Rupp Arena and Stanford University’s Maples Pavilion set to feature Limei’s flooring.
