FACILITIES GUIDE | JUNE 2020
Tennis can be played on a variety of surfaces. As long as the surface can be levelled, is uniform and
has friction characteristics within an acceptable range, then it is likely that it is an appropriate
surface for tennis.
The main surfaces used for tennis include:
• Clay (and shale);
• Grass;
• Acrylic;
• Concrete;
• Asphalt;
• Artificial grass/clay;
• Carpet
