With a little bit of creativity, it is easy to transform a sports court into a customised area to
enjoy sport and maximise your space. Using creative line markings helps to enhance your
sports court functionality as well as the player experience. Using customised markings not
only helps the players stick to the rules and regulations of the game but it also helps to keep
your sports courts looking good.

If you want to enhance your space with creative line marking, then planning is important. You
will need to think about the specific sports that you wish for your court to be used for, and the
dimensions and markings required for that sport. Every sport is different, so it is important to
account for this when thinking about using creative line markings. This helps to ensure the
process is streamlined as well as being compliant.

Line markings must adhere to regulations, and we are able to find these out by using official
governing bodies for each sport. When planning creative marking it is useful to use a
different colour for each sport to help ensure that the players are safe and avoid any form of
confusion. Using the right dimensions, different colours, high visibility quality markings and
adhering to regulations helps to ensure your sports space is maximised with no compromise
on safety all while looking fantastic.

Another thing to think about when looking to maximise your sports space with creative line
marking is the materials. They need to be durable and safe and specifically designed for
sports courts. They will be subject to heavy use so need to be the right paints for the job and
be clearly visible to help with safety. We use slip resistant thermoplastic paints which are
sure to last the test of time and wear and tear of daily use.

Some key points to consider when looking to maximise your sports space using creative
marking are the following;

 Planning of the court and layout
 Using the correct materials
 Accurate markings and measurements
 Base markings to give a picture of the court before it is fully marked
 Check once marked for any adjustments
 Seal the markings for durability
