As the summer winds down, athletic directors, coaches, and facility managers are gearing up for one thing: Back-to-School Season. From fall sports kickoff to daily PE classes and community rec programs, your athletic facilities are about to get a major workout.

But are your tennis courts, pickleball courts, and running tracks ready for the surge?

At Pro Track and Tennis, we’ve helped thousands of schools and parks prep their surfaces for safe, high-performance use—right on time and on budget. Here’s your essential checklist to ensure your courts and tracks are back-to-school ready.

✅ 1. Inspect Surfaces for Summer Damage

Summer heat and storms can cause:

• Cracks and fading on tennis and pickleball courts

• Blistering, peeling, or warping of track surfaces

• Faded court lines and lost traction

“We had significant cracks on our courts by late summer. Pro Track and Tennis came in fast and made them look brand new—and playable again.”
— Scott Bergman, Sauk Centre Schools, MN

✅ 2. Touch Up Lines & Paint

Worn lines don’t just look bad—they affect safety and gameplay. Precise striping is key for:

• Tennis and pickleball accuracy

• Track event compliance

• Multi-use court functionality

🎨 Bonus: This is also a great time to update your court color scheme before the season kicks off.

✅ 3. Resurface If Needed

If your surface is more than 5–7 years old or has recurring issues, it may be time to resurface your courts or track. A fresh surface improves:

• Safety and shock absorption

• Aesthetic appeal

• Lifespan and maintenance costs

“The resurfaced track gets compliments every week. Built for both speed and comfort.”
— Karlton Hector, Le Mars Community Schools, IA

✅ 4. Convert to Multi-Use Courts

Maximize your space and budget by converting older or underused tennis courts into:

• Tennis + Pickleball combo courts

• Multi-sport courts with basketball, futsal, and volleyball markings

It’s a smart way to offer more value and serve more students—without building from scratch.

✅ 5. Prioritize Safety Enhancements

• Check for uneven surfaces or tripping hazards

• Clean off debris, mildew, or water pooling areas

• Consider adding slip-resistant coatings if needed

🏆 Remember: A safe court is a used court.

✅ 6. Schedule Maintenance Around the Calendar

Fall sports don’t wait. Planning ahead helps avoid:

• Scheduling conflicts with games or events

• Delays from weather or material shortages

• Budget overspending from last-minute fixes

We make it easy with a project timeline customized to your school calendar.
