Starting Point

Existing Courts & Preparation

The existing courts had reached the end of their lifespan, with tired Astro Turf surfaces affecting both playability and appearance. NineCourts began by carefully removing the old turf system, exposing the base and preparing each court for a full surface replacement.

Removing the Old Turf and Preparing the Base

Key preparation works:

  1. Removal and disposal of existing Astro Turf
  2. Inspection and preparation of the base structure
  3. Cleaning and levelling of surfaces prior to installation
  4. Preparation for new centre line post installation

This phase ensures the new system performs as intended, with no compromise beneath the surface.

Bringing the Courts in Line with Modern Standards

NineCourts addressed key structural elements to bring the courts in line with modern standards.

Scope of structural works:

  1. Removal of faulty centre line posts
  2. Custom build and installation of new centre line posts
  3. Integration of in-pole tension systems for padel nets
  4. Installation of new padel nets
  5. Inspection and alignment of existing steel, mesh, and glass structures

The in-pole tension system ensures a clean, safe, and streamlined finish, with no external moving parts.

The Surface

Padel Turf Installation

A bespoke black padel turf system was selected to deliver a distinctive, high-end finish. This surface not only enhances the visual appeal of the courts but also provides the correct playing characteristics required for padel.
