Tennis Clay Courts
Clay courts are called “soft courts” whether they are natural or synthetic they provide a slower playing experience than hard courts and grass courts, providing excellent shot capabilities, players simply develop the ability to become patient whilst playing on a clay court surface.
Artificial clay courts have the added advantage of rapid drainage which allows for play in all weather without affecting the surface. Providing a real clay look, a player can still experience the slides that natural clay courts provide. This along with similar surface speed, bounce and comfort whilst playing, as it reduces muscles stress with a softer and smoother playing surface.
The turf option is sand dressed adding consistency to the court developed using UV stable yarn. Suitable for indoor or outdoor, with grass line markings already installed, so heavy use areas won’t wear off as quickly, as painted on natural clay surface.
Policlay systems are an advanced synthetic clay court technology combining chemical and analytical research on natural clay court characteristics.
