Learn to Take the Right Care of
Your Artificial Grass Court

Brushing

Brushing the court surface regularly is the most important way to keep your court
in a healthy condition for a long time. Brushing the turf in all the directions will
ensure that the infill is evenly distributed and the fibers stand upright and not fall
flat. This improves the look of the court and also helps to maintain its drainage
capacity. Drainage is very important since any water clogging or growth of moss
and algae can be hazardous, especially because most of the artificial grass courts
have a fairly fast play.
Checking infill levels
•
Artificial grass courts contain infill (mostly sand), which are put for dimensional
stability and to help the surface keep up the performance standards. Brushing
does take care of the even distribution of infills too, but they can be found in
tennis shoes and bags too, so it’s a good idea to check the infill levels once in a
month and top up when required. This is another essential way to make sure the
court looks its best and is always play-ready. Checking infill levels is especially
important for artificial clay surfaces.
