How to choose the court covering for pickleball

Conditions of use

The material is useful for owners of objects and organizers who choose a permanent or temporary solution

Критерии оценки

Твёрдый акриловый хард даёт привычный предсказуемый отскок и подходит для постоянных кортов. В спортивном зале оценивают скольжение, швы, линии других видов спорта и совместимость с переносной сеткой. Асфальт или бетон без спортивного слоя могут быть жёсткими и неровными. Временная площадка допустима только после теста сцепления, отскока и отсутствия трещин. Обслуживание включает очистку, контроль воды и восстановление линий.

First, describe the conditions: hall or street, coverage, player level, frequency of use, storage and budget. Then compare the characteristics. The product card without the test does not show usability and cost of ownership

Start with three checksflatness; dry-clutch; puddle-free.

How to evaluate the outcome

The right option solves the original problem without permanent exceptions: for the player it is important to control and comfort of the hand; for the club - safety, resource, maintenance and speed of preparation of the court

Acceptance and test

• flatness
• dry-clutch
• puddle-free
• lineage
• slug-back

Hidden limitations

The mistake is to focus only on the price per square meter, too hard or slippery surface increases the load and reduces the quality of the game, you can not start the match until it completely drys out after rain

Security and resource

There is no saving on safety: check the stability of the grid, the condition of the coverage, the markings and the free space. Tournament admission is confirmed by an official list, not by the seller's statement

Решение для игрока или клуба

Проведите тест несколькими типами мячей и обуви. Решение о покрытии принимайте вместе с профильным подрядчиком, а не только по рекламному образцу.

Pre-purchase result

Before purchasing, test two or three options in the same conditions. For the club, conduct the pilot on the same site and calculate the consumption, storage and time of staff
