Educate Yourself about Court Types before Going for Tennis Court
Construction
• Hardcourt: A tennis court with such surface type is more common in the Australian and US Grand Slam Tournaments. Made using plastic or cement, the court serves you well and offers a great playing experience. On such surfaces, you will find hard serves a lot more pleasurable. While hardcourt surfaces are great, they are usually quite gripping. Therefore, you may be at an increased risk of injuring yourself. You may find it quite safe though if you are used to playing on a hardcourt surface.
• Grass Surface: Quite common at the All England Tennis Club, you will find it quite similar to the golf putting green. When compared other types of tennis courts, grass courts are quite unique and different. You will get a high ball speed mainly because of the ball sliding over the grass. If you are mainly a serve-and-volley player, you will love playing on this surface. While these court types are quite impressive, they require continuous maintenance.
• Clary Surface: You may also opt for clay courts, which are commonly seen in the French Open. Crushed natural materials, such as shale or brick are used to construct these types of courts. The process is quite tedious and only true professionals should be hired for such tennis court construction. These courts are quite suitable for beginners because it saves you from dealing with high-ball speed. The only thing to bear in mind is that the ball is going to bounce higher on these court types.
