As winter weather fades and temperatures rise, it’s time to bring your outdoor athletic facilities back to life. Cold, wet conditions can wreak havoc on outdoor tennis courts, pickleball courts, and running tracks—leading to cracks, surface wear, and drainage issues. To ensure your surfaces are safe, beautiful, and ready for athletes, spring maintenance is essential.

At Pro Track and Tennis, we specialize in tennis court resurfacing, pickleball court repair, and running track resurfacing across 25+ states in the Midwest, South, and Mountain West. Here’s how to prep your sports surfaces for spring and summer the right way.

1. Inspect Your Court or Track for Post-Winter Damage

Harsh winter conditions often cause:

  • Surface cracking or bubbling

  • Drainage issues and water pooling

  • Faded lines or worn coatings

  • Mold, mildew, and slippery areas

“Nothing but positive… now they’re gorgeous, they’re all usable, and couldn’t be happier. Professionalism is what I would use to describe everybody involved.”

– Scott Bergman, Activities Director, Sauk Centre Schools, MN

If you’re noticing these signs, it’s time to schedule a professional inspection. Early spring is the ideal time to evaluate damage and plan repairs before your peak usage period begins.

2. Book Resurfacing or Repairs Before Peak Season

When cracks and surface wear go unaddressed, they worsen quickly with use and warmer weather. Whether you need tennis court resurfacing, pickleball court restoration, or a full running track repair, our team moves fast and delivers results that last.

“Pro Track & Tennis did a great job of refinishing some old tennis courts and providing a new surface and striping for Pickleball in Green Bay, WI! The final product looks great and plays even better!”

– Jerry Franklin, Green Bay, WI

Common springtime services:

  • Crack filling and surface repair

  • Tennis court and pickleball court resurfacing

  • Track recoating and relining

  • Court repainting and striping

  • Surface leveling and drainage fixes

3. Convert or Customize for Multi-Sport Use

Spring is also the perfect time to maximize your sports facility’s versatility. By converting existing tennis courts into multi-use courts—with added pickleball lines—you can serve more athletes and increase community engagement.

We also offer custom color coating and striping to give your facility a standout look that reflects your brand or school colors.

4. Focus on Safety and Performance

Old, cracked courts and worn tracks are more than just unsightly—they’re dangerous. From twisted ankles to decreased performance, your athletes deserve better. Our premium materials improve:

  • Traction and slip resistance

  • Surface uniformity

  • UV protection and lifespan

  • Shock absorption on tracks

“Pro Track and Tennis completed a brand new track at our completely remodeled HS stadium. The work was and continues to be high quality. We are regularly complimented on the surface of our track.”

– Karlton Hector, Google review
