If you have outdoor pickleball courts, they’re likely seeing plenty of use due to the sport’s meteoric rise, but what happens when bad weather strikes? Are you losing players to facilities that can offer continuous opportunities for play throughout the year?
Play on outdoor pickleball courts can be interrupted by bad weather, and when the season ends, players might desert your facility to find somewhere to play year-round. But these indoor facilities can also face challenges, as players seek to make the most of pleasant outdoor weather. Why not offer the best of both worlds with a retractable enclosure over your pickleball courts?
Outdoor Facility Challenges
Outdoor courts have a lot of appeal in pleasant weather, but closures and cancellations can still happen due to inclement weather or temperature extremes, from heat waves to cold snaps. And in most parts of the U.S., outdoor facilities will see virtually no use during the winter months, with busy seasons typically lasting once the weather warms in spring until the cold arrives in the fall.
Indoor Facility Challenges
Indoor pickleball courts can stay open year-round, providing enthusiasts continuous access to playing space—but at what cost? Brick-and-mortar facilities require hefty budgets and a long timeline for planning and construction. What’s more, they require additional lighting, heating and cooling, and other resource- and cost-intensive elements to stay open and running.
Give Them the Best of Both Worlds
When you install a retractable enclosure, you can provide an all-weather, year-round venue for pickleball. Able to cover large spaces, retractable enclosures can offer plenty of space to meet the rising demand for space to play pickleball in any season, without having to vacate the court due to weather events.
When bad weather threatens, it will take less than a minute to transition your pickleball facility from a pleasant outdoor experience to provide protected indoor play. And whether your enclosure is open or closed, pickleball players will be able to enjoy natural light and fresh air all day long.
