Abstract: While synthetic turf dominates indoor soccer, wood floors offer unique advantages for training facilities. This article examines hybrid systems combining beech wood panels with textured polyurethane overlays, achieving a 0.7 friction coefficient for quick pivots. It compares injury rates (ACL tears reduced by 22% on wood vs. turf) and ball behavior (30% faster roll on sealed wood). A feature on FC Barcelona’s youth academy highlights how custom-grained floors enhance ball control drills.
Key Points:
- Subfloor stiffness calibration for different age groups (U12 vs. professional).
- Thermal expansion management in unheated gymnasiums.
- Integration with LED line markings for multi-sport use.
- Anti-reflective coatings improving HDTV broadcast quality.
