Artificial Turf for Tennis Courts

High Quality, Low Maintenance: Artificial Turf for Tennis Courts

Artificial turf is bringing lawns back to lawn tennis!

Since the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club held its first championship match at Wimbledon in 1877, grass courts have been associated with the highest level of gameplay. But challenges maintaining grass courts have led other major championships, including the US, Australian, and French Open, to adopt different playing surfaces. As a result clay and hard courts have mostly replaced natural grass tennis courts.

Artificial grass is taking tennis back to its roots, with a playing surface that accurately recreates the look, feel, and bounce of grass tennis courts.

Best Artificial Tennis Courts

Grass Courts

Tennis has moved away from the traditional look and feel of grass courts and toward clay and hard courts. These surfaces are cheaper and easier to maintain, yet they come with their own unique disadvantages.

Clay Courts

Clay courts breed specialists. Players who excel on clay courts develop a particular playing style, marked by heavy top spin, strong defense, and frequent slides. But this style doesn’t necessarily translate well to faster courts, making it difficult for clay court specialists to compete head to head with players on other playing surfaces. Other drawbacks to clay courts are that they can dry out, need to be constantly wet down, and cause damage to clothing and footwear.

Hard Surface Courts

Hard surface tennis courts become noticeably faster when exposed to sun and heat. A player can play on the same court at different times in the same day and have a totally different playing experience. This inconsistency slows development and creates turbulent, unpredictable matches.

Artificial Grass Courts

Artificial grass tennis courts recreate the prestigious look and feel of natural grass courts. They support a fast playing style, but are cheaper and easier to maintain than grass courts. Celebrated tennis players Mario Ancic and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga have advocated for the need of more turf courts in professional tennis, citing that synthetic turf courts help players hone their ability to play on fast courts. This prepares pros for prestigious tournaments, like Wimbledon.

Best of all, artificial turf courts are playable all year long! Superior drainage prevents them from flooding during the wet season, while advanced cooling technology keeps turf courts cool and comfortable in the summer heat. And because turf isn’t planted in dirt, there’s no mud! drawbacks to clay courts are that they can dry out, need to be constantly wet down, and cause damage to clothing and footwear.

Indoor Turf

For outdoor tennis clubs, we recommend the Hybrid 59. AGL’s Hybrid 59 offers a similar bounce and tread to real grass courts. It’s designed using a mix of mono filament and slit filament yarn to give your court a lush look while protecting against everyday wear and tear. The slit filament design minimizes infill migration, keeping maintenance costs low, while the mono filament makes your playing surface virtually indistinguishable from living grass. Best of all, Hybrid 59 comes backed by an 8 year warranty!

Outdoor Turf

Our Performance Turf on the other hand is perfect for indoor training facilities! It’s less abrasive than typical nylon or polypropylene carpets, and features a 5mm foam backing to protect joints and tendons.
