Tennis windscreens are a clever and straightforward way to elevate the overall appearance and atmosphere of your courts. They turn plain fencing into a sleek, professional backdrop for practices, matches, and tournaments. AMI Graphics takes pride in designing, printing, and installing custom windscreens that blend style and functionality for courts of all shapes and sizes.
What Are Tennis Windscreens?
Tennis windscreens are mesh banners attached to the fencing around courts. They’re made from durable, high-performance materials that effectively reduces wind and visual distractions while still allowing for proper airflow.
They can be fully customized with logos, colors, patterns, school, team and sponsor messages, turning plain fence lines into eye-catching displays.
Why Tennis Facilities Use Windscreens
Define and Organize Court Space
Windscreens play a crucial role in defining clear boundaries in multi-court facilities. They not only hide less attractive areas and equipment zones but also help spectators concentrate on the match. For schools, municipalities, and athletic complexes, they bring a touch of professionalism and organization.
Support Privacy
Windscreens offer a sense of privacy, shielding the court from nearby activities. This is particularly beneficial in public parks or campus environments. The end result is a space that feels more like a dedicated arena rather than just another open area.
Highlight Your Brand and Build Sponsorship Value
Tennis windscreens provide prime real estate for promoting your program, facility, or event sponsors. With custom printing, you can display team logos, catchy slogans, tournament names, or vibrant branding on the windscreens along the baseline or sidelines. Sponsors gain visibility during events, especially when those matches are captured in photos or livestreamed.
Solid color options are dyed all the way through, ensuring both sides look consistent. For digitally printed windscreens, you can choose between a white or black reverse side based on your design preferences and privacy requirements. For full wraps at an entire tennis complex, the result is a sleek, high-end look that packs a visual punch.
Tennis Windscreens That Are Built to Last
We craft our tennis windscreens from top-of-the-line mesh PVC designed for durability and performance. Each screen is finished with two-inch poly webbing, kind of like seat belt material, and stitched twice around the edges to ensure sturdiness. We also use pneumatically attached grommets with gripping teeth to prevent tearing and keep everything secure and tight, no matter the weather.
We know details like these are crucial. Windscreens are exposed to harsh sun, rain, and wind for long periods. Our choice of materials and finishing techniques guarantees that your investment will last through multiple seasons, saving you on replacement costs and upkeep.
For installations where durability is important, such as facilities that face strong winds or have frequent event changes, we provide options including various mesh densities and reinforcement styles.
Installation Options and Tips
Getting the installation right is essential for ensuring your windscreens perform well. We suggest using heavy-duty zip ties for most setups, but we have other options depending on how often you use them and your security needs such as:
- Bungee balls are great for removable or seasonal setups.
- Stainless steel screw bands provide a tamper-resistant solution.
If you require professional installation services, we’ve got your back. We’ll guide you through the best practices tailored to your specific fence style, location, and climate.
Here’s a brief recap of why investing in tennis windscreens is a smart move:
- Offer valuable space for team pride and sponsor branding
- Conceal less appealing areas and equipment zones
- Upgrade court aesthetics without the need for construction
- Provide protection from sun, dust, and light debris
- Help define space and keep multi-court facilities organized
