Choosing the Right Sports Fencing to Suit Your Sport

Different sporting activities require different perimeter sports fencing and choosing the right one to suit your needs is important. Times have changed and there have been vast improvements in sports fencing in recent years. Gone are the days of noisy wooden kick-boards that needed replacing and repairing every year.

Some fencing companies specialise in sports fencing. They manufacture and supply a wide range that can be tailored for almost any sporting activity. Whatever the sport, there are fences that will be able to perfectly suit your needs. There’s a product called Super Sports Rebound which is ideal for high impact sports such as five-a-side football. It features a twin wire construction that is designed to replicate the bounce you would get from wooden rebound boards but without the wear and tear associated with these. As well as the wear and tear issue it also features synthetic rubber inserts which reduces ball impact noise and makes it ideal for residential areas.

There is also sports fencing custom made for hockey pitches which can be used in place of wooden rebound boards and features progressively narrower gaps from top to bottom which ensure maximum hockey ball retention. There is sports fencing custom made for tennis courts which features smaller gaps in the mesh to ensure that tennis balls cannot escape whilst also being unobtrusive enough to allow easy viewing through it from spectators.

There are several types that can be installed with built in goals or basketball units and also cranked fencing tops which increase ball retention. Additional cranked panels can also be added to the top of the fencing to prevent sports balls escaping even further. For complete ball retention there is a Sports Barn fencing system which incorporates a roof, making lost balls a thing of the past and also allowing all weather sports activities.
