I have not found any articles to support this, but a friend told me that players were getting headaches from playing on that court. If so, good strategy!
This sounds bogus. Even if the players are saying it, I doubt it's really happening -- it's probably a false positive. The reason I say this is because when you play on outside courts, they get big algae/dirt stains on them. Sometimes they are huge. They don't make a pattern of trees, but it's an uneven look. I've never heard of anyone getting a headache. Besides, you don't look down at your feet when you play basketball. You look ahead. I bet if you were playing on the court, you wouldn't even really notice it.
