NIRSA Chooses Senoh

The National Intramural Recreational Sports Association announced its endorsement of Sports Imports’ Senoh product line as the exclusive volleyball, badminton and tennis net systems for the national organization. NIRSA joins other organizations in making the Senoh Net System an exclusive choice. Senoh is ONLY net system ever used by the NCAA™ Championships, the Olympic Games via the Federation Internationale de Volleyball (FIVB) and the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA.)


Thirty Years of Safe Net Systems

Thirty years ago, volleyball players had to dodge dangerous guide wires that anchored volleyball net systems to the floor. In 1976, Ken Dunlap formed Sports Imports and brought the simple and safe Senoh floor sleeve system to America, revolutionizing the safety of volleyball net systems. Thirty years later, Ken’s vision is alive and well — and much is still the same: Sports Imports still offers direct support from their own volleyball experts and the Senoh design has remained relatively unchanged.

This will mark a 48-year exclusive relationship between Senoh and the Olympics. Senoh has been the only net system ever selected by the Olympic Committee and FIVB for competition since volleyball premiered as an official sport at the 1964 games in Tokyo, Japan. Senoh was also selected when beach volleyball was added in 1996.
