How to Build a High-Performance Multisport Court in a Standard Melbourne Backyard
Looking to build a high-performance multisport court in your backyard?
Building a high-performance multisport court in your Melbourne backyard is a great opportunity to utilise the space for fitness and family fun.
Whether you love basketball, netball, tennis, pickleball or a combination of them all, a high-performance multisport court from Ultra Courts with the right design and all the sporting equipment, can transform your yard into a hive of activity. Let’s talk about how it can be done.
Getting the ball rolling
We know every backyard is different, both in size and structure, so there is no one size fits all court option when there’s many variants at play.
When a full size court isn’t an option, a smaller court can step up to the task.
- 3-on-3 basketball court:15m wide and 11m long, allowing for some extra space around the outside as well.
- Half tennis or pickleball court:4 m × 6.1 m
These sizes will likely fit comfortably in many Melbourne backyards, while still offering engaging or even competitive play. Decide which sports are your priorities as this will not only determine your specific sizing, but also your surface markings and necessary equipment placement.
Adding all the equipment
A sports court isn’t complete without all the extra bits and pieces to get the fun and competitive flair going.
- Retractable net posts:When not in use, these can be removed or collapsed flush to the fencing to free up space.
- Roll-away nets:For sports like tennis, pickleball and even badminton, roll-away nets are perfect. They can be set up and stored quickly, keeping the space flexible for whatever sport takes your fancy!
- Adjustable basketball hoops:Height-adjustable systems let players of all ages and skill levels enjoy shooting. Choose units with solid bases or in-ground mounts for stability.
- There’s also the option of adding removable goals and other netting as required!
A well-designed multisport court in a Melbourne backyard offers year-round activity. By combining smaller court formats like a 3-on-3 basketball layout with flexible equipment like adjustable hoops and roll-away nets, you’ll create a personalised sports arena, perfect for all abilities.
