Spalding is now the Official Basketball of the NIRSA Championship Series National Basketball Tournament and has partnered with NIRSA to produce a signature series of NIRSA basketballs.

Spalding is a proud supporter of NIRSA and the NIRSA Championship Series

The NIRSA Championship Series is about more than just competition; these tournaments serve as a vehicle for advancing student engagement through sport. The NIRSA Championship Series gives college recreational sports participants an opportunity to compete, coordinate, officiate, and connect with skilled peers from other schools and take all the benefits of recreational competition to a higher level.

Spalding has been an Associate Member of NIRSA since 1988 and is proud to show their support for the NIRSA National Basketball Championships by becoming the Official Basketball of the NIRSA Basketball Championships. The TF-1000™ represents the best choice for institutional use; the ZK microfiber cover and premium interior construction make this an elite, championship-ready basketball. The TF-500™ offers versatility and durability on a variety of surfaces.

Additionally, Spalding practices align with NIRSA values; NIRSA is a champion for healthy people and healthy communities and is proud to partner with Spalding, since all Spalding balls are fair trade balls and are produced in accordance with strict guidelines regarding Social Compliance/Corporate Social Responsibility.
