American Fast Dry courts
These courts were installed in 2003 and are now considered to be the top clay surface to play on. These courts are in use every day throughout the summer months.
The courts are brushed daily, the
frequency being dependent on use. This will usually be twice a day when busy. Generally, they are dragmatted with a rubber dragmat across the line of play, followed by another with a brush in the line of play. They are then watered, using the pop up automatic irrigation system, to damp down the clay ready for play. It usually takes about an hour and half for one man to complete all the daily work on the three clay courts. If the weather is
The ECB National Academy - some of the best facilities in the world
hot the courts may be watered several times a day. Sometimes there becomes a build up of clay material under the nets. Once this happens some additional work is required to move this material back. This often requires taking down the nets and moving material about with lutes. Every few weeks new surface clay material is added to replace any contaminated material or clay that has blown away. The courts also require topdressing twice a year, regular supplementary dressings throughout the season to maintain levels and a regular rolling programme.
The total maintenance cost for the
upkeep of these courts, taking into account labour and materials, is about £10,000 per year.
