+ Provide a dark backdrop against which players can see and react to ball movement better.

+ Serve to break up gusting winds and allow consistent, even air flow.

+ Minimize annoying distractions from nearby swimming pools, parking lots, highways, and players on adjacent courts.

+Give courts a professional appearance and increase playing pleasure by providing a consistent background and color.

With today’s various windscreen materials, the decision regarding which one to use should be based primarily on cost and aesthetic considerations rather than on wind reduction because all windscreens work well to break up gusting winds.

Another consideration is how dense a windscreen can beinstalled without risking fence damage from strong winds.

Nine-foot windscreens are recommended for nearly all courts, and they should include anti-billow
tabs as well as 6" x 12" openings placed 5’ to 10’ apart.

Six-foot windscreens generally do not look as attractive as, nor reduce wind as well as nine-foot windscreens. They should only be used if the facilities are located near the water with very strong winds, which would destroy fences with nine-foot windscreens attached.

Our most highly recommended windscreen is the Wilson Mastershade Plus. Made of knitted high-density polyethylene monofilament, it has superior UV resistance and a special “heat-set" treatment that allows the windscreen to lie flat and straight on the fence with no billowing.

Mastershade Plus hems are 3-ply construction with heavy-duty binding and anti-billow tabs are built into every nine-foot piece. It is moderately priced, easy to install, very durable, and looks good over time, making it perfect for nearly all applications.

However, if privacy is an issue you may need a more opaque windscreen to minimize visual distractions from public thoroughfares. In that case, the Wilson Royale-Screen, made of vinyl-coated polyester, is an excellent choice and offers a high level of opacity.

For smaller budgets, the Wilson PVC offers high mildew and sun resistance at an excellent price, while the polypropylene Wilson Air Master I is an excellent choice for controlling wind while providing consistent airflow. They both look great on the court and add to your playing pleasure.

At the high-end, the nine-foot high Wilson Pro Screen offers a particularly attractive and distinctive look with its 5’ high vinyl center (for maximum ball visibility and wind control) and 2’  high PVC topand bottom (for optimal airflow).
