High-quality pickleball net systems

Junior Pickleball Net 10 Feet

This 10-foot net works where full-size nets don't fit. Driveways, small backyards, basement rec rooms—anywhere you have 30 feet of space becomes playable. Kids love having their own court that doesn't require driving anywhere.

The net itself uses 7-ply construction with 8 strands per section. This handles aggressive shots without stretching out of shape. Mesh openings measure 4x4 cm, matching professional standards for consistent ball response. No weird bounces or balls getting stuck. The system also includes a training net for solo practice sessions.

Frame construction matters when kids play hard. We use 35mm diameter tubes for the main posts—thick enough to stay rigid when someone runs into them. The two-leg base design provides stability without requiring guy-wires or ground stakes. Total weight hits 7.5 kg, light enough for one person to move but heavy enough to stay put.

Max Pickleball Net 22 Feet

Tournament players need regulation dimensions. This net measures 22.4 feet wide and sits 34 inches high at the center—exact official specifications. Practice on this net translates directly to competition play.

The mesh uses a 15-ply polyethylene construction that absorbs power shots without damage. Professional players hit hard, and this net handles that abuse. The 5-ply HDPE sleeves protect attachment points from repeated stress. Mesh spacing stays at 4x4 cm for consistent ball behavior across the entire width.

Frame engineering separates this from recreational nets. Base tubes measure 45mm square with 1.0mm wall thickness—serious structural support. Posts use 35mm diameter tubing, while arch sections run 32mm. This combination prevents wobbling during intense rallies.

FAQs

1. Do pickleball and tennis nets use the same height?

No. Tennis nets hang 42 inches at posts and 36 inches at the center. Pickleball nets measure 36 inches at posts and 34 inches at the center. The lower height changes shot angles and strategy compared to tennis.

2. What height should my pickleball net be?

Official regulations specify 36 inches at both posts with a sag of 34 inches at the center. Our Max net meets these exact measurements. The Junior net prioritizes fun family play over strict competition standards.

3. Which portable net should I buy?

Get the Junior net for families, smaller spaces, or casual play. Choose the Max net if you want regulation dimensions, plan serious practice, or play competitively. Both handle regular use better than cheap alternatives from big-box stores.

4. How long does the setup take?

The Junior net assembles in less than in 5 minutes without tools. The Max net takes around 5 minutes, maybe slightly more due to larger size and more components. Most people cut these times in half after setting up a few times. Both nets use logical assembly sequences that make sense.
