When it comes to improving your swing, consistency is key, and a backyard batting cage is your best solution. Having the proper setup at home can make all the difference for baseball and softball players looking to take their skills to the next level. Enter the backyard batting cage—a game-changing addition to your training arsenal—no more trips to the local batting cage or worrying about limited practice time. With your practical batting cage, you can train whenever you want.  Installing a batting cage in your backyard can be a great way to practice your swing and improve your batting skills. However, some additional factors must be considered to ensure the cage is safe, sturdy, and able to withstand the elements.

quality-backyard-batting-cage-installation-in-laurel-hollow-nyWhat to Look for in a Backyard Batting Cage

Selecting the perfect backyard batting cage involves more than just finding a net.

Frame and Material Durability – A sturdy batting cage frame is the backbone of any good cage. Look for frames made of galvanized steel or powder-coated materials to withstand weather conditions and frequent use. Lightweight options like aluminum frames are ideal for portability but may lack the strength required for heavy-duty practice.

Netting and Tensile Strength – The quality of the batting cage net is critical. Polyethylene netting is popular for its durability and resistance to UV rays and moisture, making it suitable for outdoor use. Cage netting with high tensile strength can handle consistent hits without wear and tear.  The type of netting you choose for your batting cage is essential. Make sure you select a netting material that is durable and appropriate for the kind of balls you will be hitting. The age of your players, amount of use, and weather conditions can be determining factors for choosing the right net.

quality-backyard-batting-cage-installation-in-laurel-hollow-ny-1Size and Space – Consider the right size for your space and training needs. Standard backyard cages are 35–70 feet long and 10–14 feet wide. Smaller indoor batting cages are ideal for limited spaces, while larger outdoor batting cages are great for serious players with expansive backyards.

GAPPSI SPORTS GAME COURTS – BACKYARD BATTING CAGES

Type of Cage – Trapezoid Batting Cage: A space-efficient option with slanted sides, making it easier to assemble and maintain.

  • Commercial Batting Cage: Heavy-duty and designed for team practice or extended training.
  • Indoor Batting Cage: Perfect for training in garages or other enclosed spaces, especially during harsh weather, these batting cages are typically smaller.
  • Outdoor Batting Cage: Built for backyard use, with weather-resistant materials to handle the elements.

Weather Conditions and Location – If your area experiences frequent rain, use cages with weather-resistant frames and netting. UV-protected netting will ensure longevity in sunny climates.  When installing a batting cage in your backyard, it’s essential to consider the potential impact of weather conditions such as wind and snow. If you live in an area with high winds, install your batting cage in a location sheltered from the wind. Consider supporting the frame by using guy wires or sandbags at the base. You may also want to choose a heavier netting material to prevent it from tearing in strong winds. In areas with heavy snowfall, make sure the frame is sturdy enough to handle the weight of snow and ice buildup. We recommend you remove the netting during the winter months to prevent damage from wind, snow, and ice.

quality-backyard-batting-cage-installation-in-laurel-hollow-ny-2

quality-backyard-batting-cage-installation-in-laurel-hollow-ny-3In our recent project in Laurel Hollow, N.Y., we installed the Premier Douglas Backyard Batting Cage in Laurel Hollow, NY.  The classic, durable Douglas® Batting tunnel frame has withstood the test of time and has been manufactured for over 30 years. With the Douglas® Batting Tunnel frame, your poles can be set at your desired length and adjusted to fit custom net widths.

Synthetic Artificial Baseball Turf

We installed the home plate mat with a surface mount that could be moved around depending on the player. The carpet is red maroon, and the home plate and stripes are inserted with white turf. We used polyethylene to wrap the rest of the batting cage’s field and green synthetic turf around the sides for the rest of the batting. The artificial turf is durable, protecting the flooring or ground in the cage from wear and damage. It requires much less maintenance than actual turf.

No matter how big or small your backyard batting cage or sports facility is, installing artificial turf in your batting cages is an investment that will protect your investments and assets and help keep your cages in great shape for the long run. Artificial turf is flexible, durable, and designed to take on the wear and tear of heavy use. Whether you’re looking for synthetic turf for outdoor batting cages or just batting cage turf for sale, Gappsi has you covered. Plus, that investment doesn’t have to break the bank.

quality-backyard-batting-cage-installation-in-laurel-hollow-ny-4The batting cage has six columns of 4-inch posts installed in 24 x 24 x 36-inch footings. The custom netting is 14 feet wide, 12 feet high, and 55 feet long. In the center of the batting cage, we inserted a custom New York Yankee Baseball logo cut out of the white synthetic turf. We also supplied a pitching machine with protective netting. Three steel cables run the length of the batting cage, and the netting hangs off of them. The batting cage was landscaped all the way around.

This is the latest backyard batting cage built by Gappsi in Laurel Hollow, NY.

At Home Lacrosse Field with Synthetic Turf Dix Hills NY

View Gappsi’s YouTube Channel for Videos of At Home Lacrosse Field with Synthetic Turf in Dix Hills, NY

Lacrosse is one of the fastest-playing, hardest-hitting games around; why not build an at-home lacrosse field with synthetic turf? You can expect ball speeds up to 100 mph flying through the air, hitting the ground at various angles, and lots of running. That means the key to keeping lacrosse players protected and performing their best is a safe, durable playing surface that can stand up to the most challenging and fastest hits game after game.

Home Lacrosse Field with Synthetic Turf

In our recent project in Dix Hills, N.Y., our team built a miniature lacrosse field in a private backyard. We installed porcelain tiles diagonally to lead to the driveway’s entrance and added 4-inch strips of synthetic turf between the tiles.

Porcelain paver stepping stones and artificial turf can be a low-maintenance way to create a lush, natural-looking outdoor space.  One of our favorite low-maintenance elements to add to any artificial grass project is paving stones. Whether that comes as spaced-out stepping stones between the turf, a paving stone patio, or a walkway, it gives your yard more functionality and adds another dimension. In recent years, the hardscaping industry has increased in designs, materials, and tools. People used to think of paving stones as a monotonous pattern of bricks, but today, it has become an art form, and we have embraced that here at Gappsi.at-home-lacrosse-field-with-synthetic-turf-dix-hills-ny1

For your next project, consider adding paving stones to your backyard because they are better suited to higher-traffic areas (compared to artificial grass). The only real limitation of synthetic turf is that it tends to develop a “wear pattern,” in which you can see more wear from the high-traffic areas. For example, adding stepping stones or a pathway would make sense if you always walk a particular path to your car or garage.

Strengthen Your Short Game with a Putting Green

Imagine the freedom of your backyard or basement putting green—perhaps a mini hole or short course. Practicing is convenient, and let’s face it now: your house looks extraordinary. We installed a putting green in the corner using Radici synthetic turf. Radici Sport develops and manufactures innovative artificial turf for the professional and amateur sports world and landscape applications, ensuring high reliability and long-term performance. Radici Synthetic grass is 100% made in Italy, and Gappsi imports it directly from the manufacturer.  Gappsi designs and constructs custom residential and commercial golf greens using high-quality, durable, artificial turf. We deliver an unrivaled experience that combines exceptional performance and elevated aesthetics.

Dominator Double Horn Light for Your Home Lacrosse Field with Synthetic Turf

We installed the Dominator Double Horn Light. This light setup illuminates the entire field at night, just like daylight. The Dominator square aluminum light pole enhances visibility with quality outdoor court lighting. Illuminate your playing field with Dominator LED lights to experience extended playtime and optimal brightness.

The key features of the Dominator Double Light series include:
  • Durable Construction: Built with high-strength aluminum extrusion housing and impact-resistant polycarbonate lenses, these light bars are designed to withstand harsh conditions.
  • Water and Dust Resistance: They are IP67 rated, offering protection against water and dust intrusion, making them suitable for off-road adventures.
  • Beam Options: Available in spot, flood, or combination beam patterns to suit various lighting needs.
  • Mounting Flexibility: Equipped with both side and bottom mounting options and stainless steel hardware for versatile installation.
  • Longevity: Featuring a 50,000-hour life rating, ensuring long-term performance.

Out-of-Bounds Netting (or out-of-play netting)

As part of the installation for the in-home lacrosse field, we installed out-of-bounce netting behind the goal net to prevent the ball from going next door. We also striped the court with permanent white lines.

Out-of-bounds netting (or out-of-play netting) is used in various sports and recreational activities to enhance safety, improve the spectator experience, and protect property. Here’s why it’s commonly used:

1. Safety – Protect Spectators: In sports like baseball, hockey, lacrosse, and golf, balls or pucks can fly at high speeds. Netting acts as a barrier to prevent injuries.  You also protect players.  Netting can prevent stray balls from interfering with play or hitting players in training areas or fields.
2. Improved Gameplay – Maintain Focus by keeping balls or other equipment within the play area; netting reduces interruptions and ensures smoother gameplay.  Defined Boundaries: Netting marks the out-of-bounds area, making it easier for players and referees to judge play.
3. Property Protection – Prevents damage to nearby property, such as cars, windows, or other structures, especially in urban or community settings.
4. Enhanced Spectator Experience – Fans can watch the game without worrying about being struck by stray balls or pucks, making the experience safer and more enjoyable.
5. Compliance with Regulations – Many sports leagues and venues must install netting to comply with safety regulations and reduce liability risks.
6. Cost-Effectiveness – Reducing incidents of damage or injury can save money in the long term by minimizing lawsuits, medical costs, and repairs.

Out-of-bounds netting balances safety and visibility, ensuring players and spectators enjoy the game with minimal risk.

Pickleball Sports Game Courts with Out of Bounce Netting System | Queens, N.Y

View Gappsi’s YouTube Channel for Videos of Pickleball Sports Game Courts with Out of Bounce Netting Systems | Queens, N.Y

When building a pickleball sports game court with out of bounce netting system, selecting the right surface material is essential for playing at the highest level. The surface affects the court’s playability, safety, and maintenance.

Surface Material and Construction

The choice of surface material greatly affects the court’s playability and maintenance. Asphalt and concrete are the most common materials used for pickleball courts, each with advantages and disadvantages. Asphalt is more affordable and offers a softer surface, while concrete provides a more durable and low-maintenance option. Regardless of the material chosen, it’s essential to ensure a smooth finish to prevent injuries and enhance the playing experience.

Asphalt is a popular choice for pickleball courts due to its durability and cost-effectiveness. It provides a hard, smooth surface that is ideal for fast-paced games.

Asphalt courts can withstand heavy use and weather conditions, making them a long-lasting option.

pickleball-sports-game-courts-with-out-of-bounce-netting-system-queens-n.yAsphalt Pickleball Sports Game Court Pros:

  • Durability: Asphalt is highly durable and can last many years with proper maintenance.
  • Cost-effective: Compared to other surface materials, asphalt is relatively inexpensive.
  • Low Maintenance: Asphalt courts require minimal maintenance, usually limited to occasional cleaning and resurfacing.

Asphalt Pickleball Sports Game Court Cons:

  • Hard Surface: The hardness of asphalt can be tough on players’ joints, especially during extended play.
  • Heat Absorption: Asphalt absorbs heat, making the surface hot and potentially uncomfortable during sunny days.

Concrete is another durable and long-lasting surface material for pickleball courts. It provides a hard, smooth playing surface similar to asphalt but with a few distinct differences.

Concrete Pickleball Sports Game Court Pros:

  • Longevity: Concrete courts can last for decades if properly maintained.
  • Smooth Surface: Concrete provides an even and consistent playing surface.
  • Stability: Concrete is less likely to develop cracks or deformities than asphalt.

Concrete Pickleball Sports Game Court Cons:

  • Cost: Concrete is more expensive to install than asphalt.
  • Hard-on Joints: Like asphalt, the hard surface of concrete can be tough on players’ joints.
  • Maintenance: While concrete is durable, any cracks that do develop can be more challenging to repair.

pickleball-sports-game-courts-with-out-of-bounce-netting-system-queens-n.y-1Pickleball Sports Game Courts with Out of Bounce Netting System Queens, N.Y.

In our recent project in Queens, N.Y., we installed two pickable courts over the existing asphalt tennis court area with two other tennis courts left existing.

We used part of the existing tennis courts and installed Mateflex tiles over the asphalt to build two pickleball sports game courts. The Mateflex tile features a narrow gauge rib system for quick drainage, high traction, and good ball bite (less skid), which is ideal for tennis court resurfacing. This is comparable to using a narrow gauge racquet string. Even after many years of wear and tear, these ribs will maintain the same width and, therefore, the same playing speed.

Each Mateflex tile has 32 individual interlocks and surrounding modules for superior court integrity. The interlocking tile is firm for a stable playing platform and reinforced for exceptional strength and longevity, which is necessary for any tennis or pickleball court design.

Why Choose Mateflex Sport Game Court Tiles

  • Experience – Matéflex has provided high-quality solutions since 1974 as the oldest American modular tile manufacturer.
  • Quality – We won’t settle for anything less than the highest standards for materials and manufacturing. We supervise our molding process, so we always control quality.
  • Performance – Our products are engineered to enhance comfort and performance and will show in your players’ games.
  • Safety – Matéflex products were developed with injury prevention in mind.
  • Durability – Protect your investment by choosing long-lasting flooring products.
  • Ease – Every Matéflex product was designed to be portable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective.
  • Service – We provide outstanding support from design to installation and throughout the life of your court.
  • Comfort – We provide outstanding support from design to installation and throughout the life of your court.

Pickleball Court Lines and Marking

The client chose maroon red for the outer court perimeter and royal blue for the pickleball insert.  In addition, we installed out-of-bounce netting with aluminum poles to separate the two courts to help contain the balls within each court.  

Sports netting, also known as ball stop netting, keeps balls in play and out of spectator areas to protect players, spectators, and property. Netting provides players an extra layer of safety, allowing them to play confidently. It also keeps balls from flying into areas where spectators could be injured. Netting prevents balls from traveling into areas that could cause damage and aids in maintaining consistent play.  Sports game court netting also keeps the balls within the boundaries, ensuring fair competition.

pickleball-sports-game-courts-with-out-of-bounce-netting-system-queens-n.y-2Out-of-bounds netting can be custom-built to fit any size space and is made from durable materials that can withstand heavy impacts and harsh weather conditions.

Pickleball sports game court netting by Dominator was installed, which can also be extended higher for playing a volleyball game.  

Synthetic Turf for Sports Game Court Fringe

Our team installed synthetic turf fringe all around the court. It is also a visual border as a transition from the Mateflex polypropylene tile to the lower asphalt base.

The second tennis court will eventually be remodeled into a new tennis court, or we might put pickable courts sideways. The clients will use this for now and decide whether to keep the old tennis court or add more pickable courts and possibly a putting green. This is the latest sports game court installation done by Gappsi in Queens, NY.

We’re the best choice for your tennis court installation because we listen to your ideas and collaborate to develop the best-finished product.

Tennis Court Construction Surfaces

tennis-court-construction-company---woodbury-ny-11797-6Tennis requires precision, agility, and speed. The court must provide a consistent and reliable playing surface for players to excel. A well-constructed tennis court enhances gameplay and reduces the risk of injuries. Therefore, selecting suitable materials and techniques becomes essential.

Our tennis court surfaces are built to enhance performance and reduce injury risk. There are benefits to each type of tennis court playing surface. Tennis court surface options include clay courts or Har-Tur synthetics, concrete courts, asphalt courts, synthetic turf courts, and grass courts. Asphalt and concrete courts provide a durable, highly stable surface for fast action, high bounces, and ball control. These tennis courts are ideal for tennis players with a higher skill level. Asphalt courts also provide year-round playability and are a cost-effective option.

Ashpahlt Tennis Court Construction in Woodbury, NY

Asphalt is a durable and flexible material designed to withstand weather and play. Cracks appear over time, but unlike other materials, they are less expensive and easy to repair. Because of its easy upkeep, your courts will easily be tip-top. In our recent project in Woodbury, NY, our team built a multi-sports game court with asphalt. We used two layers of asphalt base over 8 inches of oversized recycled concrete and 4 inches of state-approved crushed concrete. Their combination creates a surface that ensures a consistent ball bounce, which is invaluable for a fair and exciting game.

There are three primary layers: the porous asphalt layer, the binding layer, and finally, the finish layer.  The porous asphalt layer offers drainage capabilities, allowing water to seep through and avoid puddles on the court. The binding layer binds the aggregate material and the asphalt, ensuring a cohesive structure. The final finish layer is what players interact with and is often colored and textured for visual appeal and improved performance.

tennis-court-construction-company---woodbury-ny-11797-7

Tennis Sports Game Court Finished Layer and Line Markings

Once the construction is completed, it’s time to add the finishing touches. The last and final coat of green for the outside perimeter is applied on the home tennis court in Woodbury. Our team will let it dry for a few hours, then return later tonight to complete the line striping.  Adding the lines on the court allows players to accurately determine in-play and out-of-play areas.

Line markings need to be accurate and distinct for visibility, and the net installation process also requires precision for the court to be match-ready. This requires professional expertise and knowledge, ensuring a playing experience that matches the requisites of a standardized game.

Multi – Sports Game Court Netting | Tennis Court Netting | Pickleball Court Netting | Volleyball Court Netting

tennis-court-construction-company---woodbury-ny-11797-9Gappsi installed a Dominator in-ground adjustable net. The Dominator Heavy-Duty Inground System is an entirely rust-proof aluminum in-ground net system that meets official regulations. Each post comes with a separate sleeve that is permanently set in the concrete, allowing the posts to be removed from the ground when not in use. Whether you choose our square or circle model, you can be sure the posts are Dominator quality.  The netting is currently adjusted to be a tennis court. It can be raised or lowered for badminton, volleyball, and pickleball. 

Dominator Adjustable In-Ground Basketball Hoops

Gappsi installed two Dominator basketball hoops on each side of the multi-sports game court. The Dominator hoop is a professional-grade, in-ground basketball hoop perfect for your home driveway, backyard, playground, and more.

Two dominator hoops and four light posts with 8 LED lights were installed to illuminate the area for play anytime. They are all made of aluminum.  Gappsi is an authorized dealer for the Dominator sports product line.

tennis-court-construction-company---woodbury-ny-11797-8Perimeter Fencing for Sports Game Court

We installed a 10-foot black chain-link fence around the court’s perimeter, with a top metal and a bottom rail.  Installing a perimeter fence around a sports game court can provide many benefits, including:

  • Security: A fence can keep out unwanted visitors, prevent vandalism, and deter theft. You can lock the gate to ensure only authorized personnel can enter after hours.
  • Safety: A fence can keep the ball contained and prevent spectators from coming too close and being injured.
  • Aesthetics: You can customize the materials and colors to match the theme of the court.
  • Time: Fencing can prevent players from wasting time searching for lost balls.
  • Boundaries: Fencing can set boundaries between players and spectators.
  • Privacy: A fence can reinforce your home’s security and keep passersby away from your children.
  • Value: A secure outdoor basketball court can improve the value and appearance of your property.

Backyard Basketball Court Renovation Smithtown NY

View Gappsi’s YouTube Channel for Videos on Backyard Basketball Court Renovation in Smithtown, Long Island, NY

Does your backyard basketball court need renovation?  We build more than backyard sports game courts. We Build Memories!  If our customers can dream it, we can design and install it. We cater to homeowners, condominiums/HOAS, schools, camps, country clubs, gyms, recreation centers, real estate developers, and area businesses.  We design and build incredibly customized courts such as basketball, tennis, pickleball, and golf for residential and commercial use. Our personalized sports projects range from purchasing and installing basketball hoops and other sports equipment and accessories to full-court sports facilities encompassing single and multi-court offerings. Additionally, we offer our customers personalized court painting and court maintenance services, including patches and repairs.

backyard-basketball-court-renovation-smithtown-nyIn our recent backyard basketball court renovation project in Smithtown, NY, we installed a MateFlex basketball court over an asphalt base. The basketball court was an existing asphalt court that needed many repairs. We re-leveled all the sunk and cracked areas using Patch Bond.  Patch bond for asphalt repair holes, cracks, and ruts in asphalt or concrete surfaces.

The entire basketball sports game court floor was rel-leveled and then Mateflex tiles were installed. Mateflex tiles are famous for sports flooring because they are durable, comfortable, and versatile. They are a superior choice among other sports game court tile options.

Why Choose Mateflex Sports Game Court Tiles

  • Comfort – Mateflex tiles have a leaf spring design that absorbs impact and reduces stress on joints and muscles. This allows players to play longer and harder with less stress on their legs and knees.
  • Durability – Mateflex tiles are made from high-grade, durable materials that are resistant to wear and tear. They can withstand a sustained load of 16,000 pounds per square foot.
  • Drainage – Mateflex tiles have a rib system that allows superior drainage, so courts can be used quickly after rain.
  • Versatility – Mateflex tiles can be used for indoor or outdoor courts and customized to fit any playing space.
  • Easy to install and maintain – Mateflex tiles are easy to install and maintain.

The basketball hoop was already there. As the customer requested, we added the Jordan logo imprinted onto the tiles.  You can add different colors to Mateflex sport court tiles to create custom patterns or boundaries:

  • Standard colors: Mateflex HomeCourt tiles come in 16 standard colors.
  • Custom logos and designs: You can paint custom logos and designs directly onto the tiles.
  • Multiple colors: You can select multiple colors to create custom patterns or boundaries.
  • Game lines: You can mask out game lines with tape, then apply a specialized primer and polyurethane paint.

backyard-basketball-court-renovation-smithtown-ny1Synthetic Turf and Putting Green

Behind the basketball hoop, there was an unused area. It used to be a big mulch bed that the customer had to take care of. We turned it into a small putting green area, and the client loved this idea.  We installed synthetic turf with a putting green, including three American flags and cups.

With a putting green composed of artificial grass, you can enjoy golfing with your family every day of the week.  If you’re an avid golfer or just considering adding a fun outdoor activity to your home, give Gappsi a call today!  With artificial turf instead of natural grass, the putting green is the exact right height and beautifully green every day of the year.

Putting Green Turf Terminology

To know what you are shopping for, spend the time to become acquainted with the specifications and terms used by the artificial turf industry.  Once you understand what each item means, you can hone in on which products would or wouldn’t work for your backyard putting green.  Even though there’s a bit of variety to artificial grass products, there’s not much variety in the base materials they’re made of.  There are three options:

  1. Polyethylene
  2. Polypropylene
  3. Nylon

Polyethylene is mainly used in the turf’s backing, not the yarn fibers. Fake grass for putting greens is usually made from polypropylene or nylon, and each has distinct advantages.  Nylon is the more durable (and more expensive) of the two.  Most of the best-putting green turf products will have nylon fibers.  Polypropylene more closely approximates the look and feel of real grass, though it’s more prone to matting and ruts than nylon is.

The silica sand infill absorbs some of the ball’s bounce, like soil.  Turf infill is those tiny bits of material sprinkling between the artificial grass blades. For example, if the edges are similar to blades of grass, then infill is the dirt for the turf. Adding silica sand infill helps your faux grass blades stand up and keep their real look in high-traffic areas. The silica sand infill also gives you the feel of walking on real grass by emulating the impact absorption qualities of soil. It helps weigh down the imitation turf and helps keep the artificial grass from getting wrinkles or ripples caused by movement. We add Microban, too.  Microban is an antimicrobial product that helps prevent the growth of mold and mildew. It’s non-toxic, so it’s also safe for kids and pets.

Synthetic Turf Grass Fringe

We used synthetic turf to frame the court and putting green area as a fringe. A fringe is a section of the fairway, sometimes called the “apron.” This apron connects the green and the fairway. Based on the design, synthetic turf fringe can be several feet wide and as narrow as six inches. Do you need it? I would say yes unless you want the ball to roll off the green.

We created a little sitting area on the opposite side with synthetic turf and installed out-of-bounce netting to prevent the basketball from entering the woods.

The clients are pleased. They made a lot of use of their minor sports game court. This is the latest sports game court built by Gappsi in Smithtown, NY.
