Grip Spritz - Athletic Director Conferences - April 2026

Grip Spritz is back on the road!

This month, Grip Spritz hit the road for three statewide athletic director conferences - Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and California. It's that time of the year where we need to let schools know that we can save their basketball programs money in the coming season!

How does Grip Spritz save schools money?

Simple. We provide more affordable alternatives to the outdated products their teams currently use that work BETTER!

For decades, school basketball programs have had one option when it came to supplying a traction mat for their team.. SlippNott. 

Since SlippNott was the only game in town, they became incredibly expensive. A team will spend almost $7 per game just on replacement sticky sheets.

Similarly, the only way to clean your court was with CourtClean. Not only is it expensive, it's a pain in the butt to use. Mixing chemicals in a mop bucket, constantly adjusting the towel, and it weighs almost 40 pounds! Nobody is signing up to do that job.

Grip Spritz worked with basketball coaches to fix this!

The Grip Spritz Traction Mat was built by basketball coaches, for basketball coaches. Coaches had sticky sheets. You have to constantly peel them off all game and find somewhere to throw them when they should be focused on coaching.

It also is an adhesives sheet. When a player steps on it, then goes back on the court, their shoes instantly collect more and more dust. Not to mention, no player wants to use the same sheet as their teammate. Once the top sheet is covered in dust and dirt, it won't work too well for the next player. The costs add up quick!

Grip Spritz eliminated the sticky sheet entirely. Instead, Grip Spritz utilizes a liquid solution. This means three things.

First, it's not sticky! The players shoes collect any dust that's on the court much more slowly, so the fix lasts longer! We make your basketball shoes grippy, not sticky!

Second, no sticky sheets means no in-game maintenance for coaches. No peeling sticky sheets, no piles of trash to clean up. The solution you apply to the traction mat pregame lasts the entire night, no matter how many times players step on it.

Lastly, it doesn't matter if you're the first player to use it or the 15th. The dust and dirt don't sit on the surface making it unusable for the next player!

Grip Spritz created our court mop the same way!

Basketball coaches and athletic directors know what they want and they're happy to tell you. Since their feedback was so helpful in creating our traction mat, we did the same thing with our court mop.

CourtClean has dominated, like SlippNott, for decades. The complaints piled up. It's super heavy at 35 pounds. You constantly need to adjust the towel to find a clean section and it never stays on properly. In order to use it, you need to fully submerge a 6 foot long towel into a mop bucket of chemicals you just mixed. Then attach that towel to the mop frame. Nothing about it is easy.

Grip Spritz reimagined how this process should look. It should be lightweight so anyone can clean the court. You shouldn't need a chemistry degree and a mop bucket to use it. It should be way more affordable and you should never have to touch that wet, dirty towel to adjust it.

Our Grip Spritz Court Mop weighs a total of 9 pounds! 

Our cleaning solution is applied for a squirt bottle that doesn't make a mess.

It's over $500 less expensive.

You never have to adjust the towel.

That's how Grip Spritz saves schools money and eliminates the coaches biggest headaches.

These two products have exploded across the high school and college basketball world. They're even endorsed by the National High School Basketball Coaches Association.

Next time you're at your statewide athletic directors conference, look for Grip Spritz! You'll be happy you did!
