In early 2015
Connor Sport Court was purchased by Gerflor, one of the largest manufacturers of commercial resilient
flooring in the world. Part of their family of products includes Taraflex™, the courts
you saw used in the Rio Olympics for volleyball and handball. Taraflex™
is the most widely specified sports surface in the world and has been used in
ten consecutive Olympic Games starting with Montreal in 1976 to London in 2012
for indoor surfaces like handball, volleyball, badminton and table
tennis. Although they are relatively new in the American sports flooring
market this marriage with Connor Sport Court will boost that market
penetration. We are excited now to represent the three major
manufacturers in the sports flooring world: Connor Hardwood
Flooring, Sport Court Modular PP, and Taraflex Vinyl.
Over the past
year we assisted 4 clubs develop their new facilities, see attached photos:
1.
Laguna Beach
Volleyball Club –
Rancho Santa Margarita. Michael Soylular expanded his club of many
years to a new location expanding from 3 courts to 7 courts using our Response
flooring. We also teamed with LBVBC and set up one of our popular
residential outdoor “Game Courts” and have an office/showroom there as well.
2.
Vertical Performance – Actyve VB – Santa Monica. Lainey
Gera opened up a Sport Court Response 2 court training facility on Olympic
Blvd in Santa Monica. We also have a Sport Court satellite office

the development of his club.
4.
