The ASBA is the trade organization for track and tennis builders. Their goal is to provide information and contacts for the building of quality sports facilities. American Track & Field and Runblogrun has worked with the ASBA for several years, promoting quality sports facilities. In fact, for the past decade, American Track & Field has shown the winners of the best track, indoor and out and runners up in the first issue of American Track & Field each year. We encourage you to nominate your facility!

ASBA awards program now open

Know a good track facility? Maybe the whole athletic industry should know, too.

The American Sports Builders Association (ASBA)’s awards program, recognizing outstanding athletic facilities, is now open.

Awards
are presented in various categories: Running Tracks, Sports Fields,
Tennis Courts and Indoor Multi-Purpose Facilities. Within each category
there are subdivisions; for example, the Track category recognizes
Indoor Running Tracks and Outdoor Running Tracks. In addition, there are
honors in the ‘Green’ competition, for athletic facilities that used
the most eco-friendly design, construction and operating techniques.

Note:
Running track projects may be large or small; in the past, awards have
gone to high school, college and international competition-level
facilities designed for a variety of users, as well as tracks for
community members and wellness complexes.

To
be eligible for entry into the awards program, a facility must have
been designed by, or built by, an ASBA member company. (To look up
whether a company is a member, go to www.sportsbuilders.org, and use the “Find A Builder/Designer/Supplier” search feature on the right-hand side of the page).

The
ASBA member who designed or built the facility must be the one to enter
it in the awards program; facility owners who are interested should get
in touch with their builder or designer to urge them to enter. Also in
order to be eligible for this round of awards, projects submitted must
have been completed within the current year or within the previous two
calendar years (ending Dec. 31). The deadline for entry is June 1, 2011.

The
judging of awards entries is done anonymously by a panel of ASBA
members. Presentation of award plaques is made at the Technical Meeting,
to take place next December in Palm Springs, California. Winning
facilities receive a plaque and are recognized in associations
announcements and in articles written in various industry magazines.
ASBA member companies whose projects win awards are further urged to
publicize the award to their local newspapers and others.

Projects
are scored individually based on considerations such as layout and
design, site work, drainage, base construction, surface, amenities,
innovation and overall impression. Winning entries are those whose
cumulative scores meet or exceed the standard.

 A list of award winners will be posted on this blog after the Technical Meeting, or those interested may go to www.sportsbuilders.org to receive complete information once all presentations have been made.

Want more information about ASBA or its awards program, including lists of previous award winners? Go to www.sportsbuilders.org, and from the toolbar at the top of the page, select “About Us” and then, using the drop-down menu, choose “Awards.”
