Both Type 3 and Type 4 MUGA surfaces are polymeric but type 4 has a thicker surface providing greater shock absorbency and lower surface friction and is better suited to 5-a-side football, basketball and athletics. Different colours are available; red and green are most commonly used.

Polymeric MUGAs are used for ball rebound sports and as training areas for non-ball sports such as athletics. They are also suitable for wheelchair sports.
