Sports Courts & Sports Surfaces
Tennis courts, netball courts and any other type of asphalt court or sports surface – we have laid them all. NexGen Sport Surfaces has experience to ensure your sports court is perfectly flat from one end to the other.
Asphalt is the world’s most commonly used sports surface for sports courts – particularly in schools, tennis and netball facilities – as well as many other sports facilities. An important benefit of asphalt sports courts versus concrete is that it is much softer, so players prefer it.
Asphalt also forms the perfect foundation for synthetic grass as used in bowls clubs or synthetic grass tennis courts, making its application simple and affordable.

Basketball – Artificial Turf & Synthetic Sports Turf Solutions
Basketball continues to be one of the fast growing sports in South Africa. It’s simply an outstanding game to be involved in, be it as a player or as a spectator.
Children are starting the sport at a younger age, more women are becoming involved in the sport, there is an uptake in social leagues and better pathways for top athletes. While this is all good news, it does put additional pressure on already limited school and club facilities.
It therefore comes as no surprise why more and more home owners are looking to create home turf artificial grass basketball courts.
NexGen Sport Surfaces turf basketball courts can be custom-made to fit your available space. From a small, underutilised corner of the home that can be turned into a basketball shooting practice area, to a driveway that doubles as a half-court, to a dedicated full-size backyard basketball court. Whether it’s artificial turf for schools or a synthetic sports turf in your own location, we can do it all.
Netball is a stop-start game. The court needs to help you play.
Our playing surfaces can offer over 17% force reduction on player’s bodies, and the technology retains that cushioning and flexibility for 10+ years.
The non-slip properties of our high-tech sports surfaces help prevent your players slipping and jarring their joints. But if they do fall, it won’t grate their skin like concrete.
Base Preparation by Sport
Construction methods and materials for each court or sport surface are chosen based on an number of factors that we’ll discuss with you to assure we meet your individual needs. Are you a school needing a multifunctional sports court? Are you a high performance sports athlete needing a particular surface to optimise your home training? The final construction chosen for these two courts will be very different due to their very different use cases.
The ground preparation and base layers, as well as topmost surface layers of sports courts, are different for each sport and for different types of players. Considerations include pace and bounce, density for joint and muscle fatigue considerations, durability and maintenance expectations, local environmental conditions, aesthetic preferences, ease of regular cleaning, and preferences in materials especially in remote locations. We’ll discuss your specific needs so we can create the perfect surface for your sports and for the natural ground material and conditions of your location.
Sports Courts are built with many layers to achieve the precise planarity required for the sport as well as to achieve appropriate levels of rain runoff due to their outdoor environments. We’ll discuss your area’s natural ground composition and design your base layers and ground preparation to suit.
Sport Courts Maintenance & Repair
Asphalt is not only an affordable surface, but it’s also very versatile and durable. It’s quick and easy to lay, shortening the time between construction and use. It’s also very long lasting, with a flexible surface that allows for good drainage, durability against impact and cracking, and cost-effective repairs when they are needed. This is why asphalt is preferred by councils and other publicly owned grounds that are maintained by parks departments and public school maintenance crews – these sports surfaces need to perform well with very little routine maintenance & expense.
Surface Layers & Colors
The surface layers of sport courts are often made from brightly coloured acrylic. This final top layer provides just the right balance between grip for sports that involve fast direction changes and smoothness to prevent tripping, injuries when falling, and also being easy to keep clean and ready for immediate use when teams or students arrive for their games.
Will water run off my court?
While sports courts feel perfectly flat, they are built with an imperceptible taper of approximately 1% over the court to ensure water doesn’t stay on the courts or sports surfaces. This tiny angle has to be very precise so players aren’t playing on a sloped surface, and rain doesn’t pool after a storm. Sports Court construction South Africa requires a high level of attention to detail and expertise in the field – choose NexGen Sport Surfaces to be sure your team is highly qualified and experienced in these areas.
