After the inspirational game-play at Wimbledon recently, thousands of Brits will be set to take to the courts this summer. If you\u2019re a sports site manager, you\u2019ll want to ensure that your tennis courts and other pitches are secure and suitable enough for an influx of customers. In this article, we\u2019ll discuss some things to consider when looking to buy sports ground fencing.<\/p>\n

1. Security<\/h2>\n

First, consider how high you need your sports fencing<\/a> to be. For some sports, such as hockey<\/a>, fences can be shorter; however, higher fences need to be put in place for sports such as tennis, football or cricket, often with additional mesh or netting. Stray balls can often exit the court and interfere with nearby traffic if the fences<\/a> are too low. High fences also deter unauthorised people from trespassing onto your sports<\/a> ground and causing damage through vandalism or theft.<\/p>\n

2. Gates<\/h2>\n

People often forget that many sports courts and pitches require access gates that can be opened easily to allow vehicle<\/a> and pedestrian access. Mesh wire gates and fences<\/a> help blend into the surroundings and allow for spectators to see in and keep track of what is happening on the court and advertise your facilities to passersby.<\/p>\n

3. Wildlife<\/h2>\n

Where your court or pitch is located will determine the type and frequency of animal trespassers you get. While they may not sound like a nuisance, they can cause damage to your facilities, spread disease and even leave a mess which can deter customers. Please look at your location and the animals and wildlife that inhabit it before choosing a suitable fence<\/a> that can keep them out. A stronger and more sturdy fence<\/a> or metal railings will likely be required for larger animals, but smaller animals may be kept out with a simple mesh fence.<\/p>\n
