| Abstract: | The article reports on the expansion of tennis court construction industry in the U.S. As high school tennis continues to grow in popularity, due to the no-cut tennis programs endorsed by the United States Tennis Association (USTA) at more than 3,000 high schools, tennis court construction and renovation have increased. Meanwhile, clay has grown in popularity due to the playability, but it demands the most maintenance. Moreover, it recommends all-weather and synthetic turf courts for schools. |
