I'm not sure about the experimental gecko-feet material, but what using some sort of non-marking tape like painter's/gaffer's tape. It would probably stay sticky enough for the duration one match, and could be replaced very cheaply after each match. If it was stretched tight over a hard backing material, it might have the desired effect.

Another idea would be something like soccer goalie gloves, or some kinds of gardening gloves even, with a high-friction rubber on them.
