Benefits for Tennis Player
 
Attractive and professional appearance
There has been no argument with any installation around the world... Classic Clay courts look absolutely fantastic with very little effort. Simple 'bagging' or 'drag mat grooming' will achieve a world class appearance, reveal white lines and provide a surface ready for positive ball marks every time.

Ball bounces like a traditional clay court
Most agree the clay game is dramatically different to a grass or hard court style. Topspin, backspin and sliding serves all have vastly different outcomes on a clay surface. The Classic Clay surface ensures the ball will stay low on backspin shots, kick on topspin and deflect with slice just like a traditional clay court.

Slides like a like a traditional clay court
The foot ‘slide’ character of the playing style on clay is emulated accurately and remains consistent across the entire surface, including the lines. There are no deviations, soft spots, or hard areas as experienced with a natural clay court.

Less heat retention underfoot in hot regions
Hard and compacted earth exposed to the sun in hot regions will retain enormous amounts of ambient heat. This is radiated underfoot throughout the day and contributes to court surface temperatures becoming raised above atmospheric temperatures.

The Classic Clay surface is designed to remain a loose and free surface with a degree of air and space in the structure. This acts as a natural insulation type layer and is noticeably cooler underfoot than a traditional clay or hard court.

Easier on the body than a traditional clay court
The Classic Clay system has a shock absorbing quality that is very popular with veteran players, coaches and anyone spending a great deal of time on court. In the south of France, veteran players previously retired are actually returning to the Classic Clay courts and enjoying the game again for this very reason.

Drastically reduced soil on clothing, footwear and tennis balls
The Classic Clay mineral infill is a consistent micron size and free of dust particles. Therefore clothing, shoes and tennis balls remain much cleaner than on a regular clay court.
