What Are Sports Tarps?
Sports tarps are heavy-duty protective covers designed to shield athletic surfaces, equipment, and infrastructure from rain, snow, sunlight, dust, and mechanical wear. They are commonly used to cover sports fields, running tracks, tennis courts, baseball diamonds, football fields, and stadium seating areas.
Unlike general-purpose tarpaulins, sports tarps are engineered with specific performance requirements, including high tear strength, anti-slip surfaces, controlled flexibility, and resistance to repeated folding and deployment. These characteristics make them suitable for frequent use in demanding sports environments. 
Main Types of Sports Tarps
Stadium Field Covers
Stadium field covers are designed to protect natural grass or artificial turf from excessive rainfall, frost, or intense sunlight. These tarps help maintain field conditions, prevent waterlogging, and reduce maintenance costs.
Baseball & Softball Tarps
Baseball tarps are widely used to cover infields and pitcher mounds during rain delays. DERFLEX baseball tarps are made with reinforced edges and strong grommets to ensure secure anchoring under windy conditions.
Football & Soccer Field Tarps
Football and soccer tarps are typically large-format covers requiring excellent tensile strength and seam reliability. Our PVC sports tarps are engineered for large spans and repeated deployment by field crews.
Tennis Court & Multi-Sport Court Covers
Tennis and multi-sport court tarps protect playing surfaces from moisture, dirt, and UV exposure. These tarps help preserve court coatings and reduce downtime after rainfall.
Event & Sideline Sports Tarps
Event tarps are used around sports venues for temporary flooring, equipment protection, or branding displays. They are often customized with logos, colors, and markings to match event requirements.
Materials Used in DERFLEX Sports Tarps
The performance of sports tarps largely depends on material quality. DERFLEX manufactures sports tarps using premium PVC coated fabrics developed for outdoor and high-stress applications.
- High-tenacity polyester base fabric for structural strength
- Flexible PVC coating for waterproof and airtight performance
- Excellent tear and abrasion resistance
- UV-resistant formulation for long-term outdoor exposure
- Mildew and fungus resistance for humid environments
- Optional flame retardant standards (B1, NFPA 701)
These materials are engineered to maintain flexibility in low temperatures while resisting deformation and cracking under high heat, ensuring year-round usability.
