Beach Tennis...Why Not Beach Squash!? from Bob Hanscom
October 9, 2012
- Beach Squash was created to meet the needs of touring shows, holiday
villages, playgrounds, sports clubs and anywhere where a mobile and
demountable structure will fill the requirement. A 10 x 7 meter
area and a 6.5 meter height is enough to assemble a Beach Squash court.
The walls are made of special panels to give a true bounce of the
ball. The back wall is particularly strong and is made of
transparent thermo-plastic material. The lighting system is
designed to give the correct amount of light for play at night.
The whole system is very easy set up, maintain and take down.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Metal Structure: The metal structure rests on 10 adjustable supports
that are suitable for all kinds of ground. Protection from the
elements is guaranteed by zinc coating to which two layers of
oleo-phenolic grains are added. All components are assembled with
stainless steel bolts. The system also includes a central framework
supporting the lighting system.
Floor: The wood is all auto-claved and specially treated so that it is
waterproof and weather resistant. The playing lines are made with
a special enamel paint.
Walls: The outside walls are made of a double layer of plastic
laminate; the inside is covered with high density panels which have
perfect rebound qualities for the game of Squash.
Back Wall: The wall is made of transparent thermo-plastic panels.
The outer supports are made of the same material. There is a
central lockable door.
Containing Net: A nylon net covers the whole front section of the
top of the court to prevent balls from going out of the court.
OTHER USES
A Beach Court can also be used for other purposes such as Aerobics,
Fitness, Yoga, Dance etc. By adding simple kits it can be
transformed into a 4 player football pitch or volleyball court.
Its outer walls can be transformed into a free climbing surface.
OPTIONS
A light cover to cut down the level of sunlight can be provided.
So all...think out of the box! If "Beach Tennis" can be played, why not "Beach Squash!?"
