One of my favorite events to attend each year is the ASBA, the American Sports Builders Association. I have gone to ASBA for nearly two decades to learn about the care, building and legalities of track facilities. I began this after I heard, then witnessed, a terrible track renovation done by a group that was ill-equipped as well as ethically bankrupt. This aforementioned group provided a less than suitable track renovation. After this nightmere, I learnt about the ASBA, a trade group dedicated to providing information to coaches, athletic and facilities directors on the proper and ethical development of sports faciilities. I no longer all non-ASBA members to advertise, as I have learnt to appreciate the complexities of building an enduring sports facility.

ASBA Honors Distinguished Sports Facilities

Forest Hill, MD – The American Sports Builders Association (ASBA), the national organization for builders and suppliers of materials for athletic facilities, has announced the winners of its annual awards. Awards are presented each year to facilities built by ASBA members, which best exemplify construction excellence.
Awards are presented in various categories: Tennis Courts, Running Tracks, Sports Fields, Indoor Facilities and Track and Field Facilities. Within some categories, there are divisions; for example, the Tennis Court category recognizes facilities in Indoor, Residential and Outdoor divisions.
Presentation of award plaques was made at the Technical Meeting, recently held in Amelia Island, Florida.
