Tennis Court

What separates a serviceable tennis court from one people actually want to play on comes down to specifics that matter. The surface — whether hard court, clay, or synthetic grass — needs appropriate maintenance for Gauteng conditions; hard courts crack under freeze-thaw cycles, clay courts dust in dry spells and turn slippery after rain. Net height and tension drift from temperature swings and regular use. Lines fade or become uneven, affecting competitive play. Good courts are professionally installed with proper base preparation and drainage, maintained on a consistent schedule rather than reactively. If you're serious about your game or coaching others seriously, these details determine whether you're learning proper technique or developing bad habits around poor court conditions.
