Bocce Ball Sports Game Courts with LED Lighting will provide hours and hours of outdoor fun. Perfect for homeowners who like to throw parties outside.  Bocce court surfaces are traditionally made from tennis clay, however many homeowners prefer turf or sand for their yards. Courts can be built into your backyard as seen in the photo or built stand-alone. Call Gappsi today and we can prepare a free quote.

There are two primary considerations when addressing bocce ball court construction; one is the playing surface and the second is the lighting. Keep in mind that no matter how aesthetically pleasing a bocce court is, nor how expensive the drainage system is if it has an inferior surface it will get less use! Likewise, if you can not see at night the court it will also get less use.  A premium surface should play fast, have minimal bounce, and be easy to maintain.

Bocce Ball Sports Game Courts with LED Lighting

The game of bocce ball is very old. There is evidence that a bocce-like sport involving rolling rocks toward a target was even played by ancient Egyptians. The formal game known as bocce, or bocci, was subsequently developed in Italy and spread across the globe, becoming a popular game in many Western countries today. Bocce matches sometimes take place at night, and Gappsi has developed lighting packages for any level of competition.

When lighting a bocce court, many factors come into play. The light must cover the entire surface. The light must not shine into the eyes of the players. The fixtures must be durable to withstand an errant toss or unsteady player. Finally, the fixtures must be attractive so as not to detract from the daytime appearance of the court.

Bocce-Ball-Sports-Game-Courts-with-LED-Lighting-Sands-Point-NY1Why Light The Bocce Court?

Admit it or not, you might be wondering and having the question of why you should light the bocce court in your backyard. The straightforward answer is that it enhances its features at night. Aesthetically speaking, it would be a good view to look at after dark even if you’re not using it.

Furthermore, it ensures that it won’t be a nesting place for insects or small animals. And also ensure your safety from hazards and avoid accidents like missteps with the border of the bocce court when dark.

Bocce Ball Sports Game Court Sizes

The actual bocce court is a long rectangle filled with a non-bounce surface such as crushed oyster shell, clay, or gravel. Bocce sports game courts are generally constructed in one of three rectangle sizes:

  1. For competition-level bocce, courts are 13′ x 90′.
  2. A typical country or recreational club bocce ball court will be 13′ x 76′,
  3. The backyard bocce court will generally be between 10′-12′ wide and 12′-70′ long.

Whether you’re a country club manager with outdoor club-level bocce ball courts or a homeowner with a simple backyard bocce court setup, Gappsi has a bocce ball court lighting package for your sports court.

bocce-court-built-by-Gappsi-in-smithtown-ny-1The Number Of Light Poles

If your bocce ball court is about 60 feet long, it may require 3 to 5 light poles along the edge of the court itself. The pole positioning has to be placed evenly to ensure that the lights to be installed would illuminate the same lighting from each other’s end of the court. This would also give ample allowance if in the future you plan to extend the court.

LED Light Pole Height

You have to ensure that the poles are identical to each other’s lengths/heights. The general height requirement for it is about 16 feet. The poles are typically made of wood, but others prefer metal poles. So, it is up to you which one to use as long as they’re the same height and installed properly.  The general height requirements give ample lighting when used and it won’t get in the way when tossing the ball when playing.

Why Use LED Lights?

It’s no secret that LED lights are energy and cost-efficient. But, at the same time, it is ideal to use LED lighting for the bocce court in your backyard so you to have the option of the color temperature. Bocce ball is a casual game and lighting is important when you’re playing in the late afternoon or at night. You don’t want bright lights to become a hindrance for a fun game—and too bright lighting would be harmful to the eyes up close—so warm lighting rather than bright sunlight white is more advisable.

LED lights are flicker-free compared to others so it won’t be irritating when they are used.

Bocce-Ball-Sports-Game-Courts-with-LED-Lighting-Sands-Point-NYBocce Ball Sports Game Courts With Stone Coping Sands Point NY

Gappsi designed and built this Bocce Court for a private residence in Sands Point NY. The sports court was built over a recycled concrete base with a thin layer of blue stone screening. The structure of the wall was built with pressure-treated lumber and faced Azek on the inside and outside of the Bocce Ball Court. The floor for the court is the Gappsi bocce court synthetic turf and the coping on the walls is Indiana limestone. It was the customer’s design choice and selection. In addition, the limestone blends in with the Azek finish on the walls.

An led light system was installed under the coping. The night version is featured in the video. The led lights can be rotated to different colors or stopped on a desired color. This is the latest Gappsi Sports Court Built in Nassau County Long Island NY.

Bocce Ball Sports Game Court Construction1The Game –  Bocce Ball

Bocce is a slow-tempo game, best enjoyed with the sun low and a cocktail in hand. The rules are simple enough: A small ball, called the pallino, gets tossed down the court and players must try to get as close as possible with their own balls, sometimes strategically knocking opponents out of the way.

The standard size of a bocce ball court is 90 feet by 13 feet but we can customize it to whatever you want. A Bocce Ball Court is a great and fun addition to any family gathering or small get-together!

Bocce Ball is swiftly gaining popularity, and for good reason: The Italian lawn game is fun yet challenging and can be played at practically any age. As more people continue to play, homeowners have started investing in their own backyard bocce ball sports game courts.

What to Know Before You Start

Before you dive in, you need to determine: court size, location, and type. Official bocce ball courts are 86.92 feet long and 13.12 feet wide, according to the United States Bocce Federation. But unofficial courts can be smaller. Scale the size down based on what you think will work best with your yard space.

For the location, it’s best to choose a spot that gets good drainage. You’ll also want to choose an area that won’t interrupt the rest of your outdoor space. Consider an area you don’t currently use often or one you want to transform.

Next, determine what type of court you want based on your maintenance preferences and where you live. Most bocce courts have a wooden border, a rocky drainage layer, and a playing surface.

Bocce Ball Sports Game Courts Big Impact

Posted by Gappsi Group on

Bocce-Ball-Sports-Game-Courts-Big-Impact1Create a big impact on your property with Bocce Ball Sports Game Courts.

Backyards are a place where families and friends experience life together. They’ve become the go-to area for socializing, games, and activities. With the help of Gappsi Group, you can improve your backyard into a place everyone wants to gather.  Bocce’s rise in popularity over the years is based on its social nature and ease of play.

Do you have some space in your backyard where you want to create some type of entertainment feature? You’re not a golfer, you don’t want to play tennis, you don’t want to play basketball. Sports game courts are fun things to build and have on your property.  Let’s talk about bocce ball sports courts for a second. Bocce ball has been around for many years and it is a great game especially when you have a party with your family.  The game is fun, interactive, and entertaining.

Bocce Ball Sports Game Courts Big Impact

Bocce courts have already made a big impact on replacing, or have made great additions to, tennis courts, sports courts, putting greens, shuffleboard courts, and croquet as the choice of the “backyard sport.” It is a sport that all ages can play and enjoy.

Bocce can be played on almost any flat surface, which makes this sport so enjoyable.  The best surface to play on is one that has minimal bounce in addition to no grade so the balls don’t end up assembling in one spot during play. Other important considerations are maintenance and drainage. Bocce Ball Sports Courts often constructed using compacted rock, sod, or sand;  when a court constructed like this it often drains poorly and becomes bumpy or uneven. A Gappsi bocce court using synthetic turf is arguably the ideal choice with the look and feel of real grass. Synthetic turf bocce courts are maintenance-free, allow for fast, bounce-free ball handling, and are cooler and cleaner underfoot.

It’s a pretty picture: friends and family gathered around your new rectangular court on a lovely summer’s evening, as warm conversation, clinking glasses, and knocking bocce balls score the scene in early twilight. If you’re beguiled by bocce’s seductive charms and want to bring the game home, here are eight elements of design and construction to know before planning your own backyard bocce court.

CALL GAPPSI TODAY FOR A FREE CONSULTATION

Before you begin building your Bocce Ball Sports Court, determine your expectations for your bocce court. Are you looking to simply enjoy a few rolls?  If so, you only need a flat surface, a little space, and good company. But if a regulation sporting experience is what you’re after, there’s a lot more design planning that goes into it.

The space requirement is the first detail to consider in your design.  I’ve seen bocce courts sized modestly, at around 45 feet long by 8 feet wide in some cases, but that’s a cramped court and play can feel restricted. One of the game’s true joys is conceiving plays into lengthy arrangements, then watching rolls progress into their depths.

A regulation bocce court is 91 feet by 13 feet, and the closer to that size you construct yours, the more authentic your experience will be. If possible, I recommend a minimum sizing of 70 feet by 10 feet.

Bocce-Ball-Sports-Game-Courts-Big-ImpactBenefits Of A Turf Bocce Ball Court

Bocce can be played on various court surfaces, such as clay, stone dust, dirt, grass, or artificial surface. However, while these are all good options, we recommend using an artificial turf surface. Below are some benefits:

  • Artificial turf is aesthetically pleasing, similar to grass.
  • A natural surface, such as clay or dirt, requires additional materials and rakes to keep a smooth surface, whereas, artificial turf is very low maintenance with little to no upkeep.
  • The turf is flat which will allow the balls to roll. Overall, enhancing the strategy of the game.

Turf Bocce Ball Sports Game Courts Installation

If the idea of a 90 ft. court in your backyard scares you, don’t worry! Bocce ball is great because the court size can be determined by personal preference! Whatever size you choose, Gappsi will ensure the following:

  • All vegetation and debris are removed and cleared from the desired court area.
  • A base layer of rocks is leveled. It is important to ensure there are no dips or bumps for even court. Alternatively, we can install a base layer of concrete.
  • Install turf on top of the rock layer. Gappsi’s synthetic turf is a great option for your sports game court. if using a concrete base, our turf is an ideal addition because of its draining properties. As a result, water won’t get stagnant and impact gameplay.
  • Add a wood or contrasting turf border to your court to help define the area and stop any rollaway balls.
  • Bocce ball is a great yard game to play with friends and family of all ages. If you’re looking for a low-fuss activity in your backyard, this might be the option for you! If you have any questions about how to install a bocce court, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Bocce Ball Court Built In East Moriches Suffolk County NY

Bocce court built in East Moriches Suffolk County NY. We built the court over a recycled concrete base and bocce grass over blue stone dust. The sides of the court were built with pressure-treated lumber and painted in gray to match the rest of the backyard, the house, and the fence. We installed lighting on the side walls that will light up the court at night. A very beautiful backyard setting. The bocce court is positioned on one side of the backyard. Leaving the rest of the backyard area for the pool, pavilions, and other amenities. That is a bocce court built by Gappsi.
