The U.S. Tennis Court & Track Builders Association is a national
organization
of tennis court manufacturers and suppliers. They have a publication written
in conjunction with the USTA: "Tennis Courts, A Construction and Maintenance
Manual". You can also call them at 410-418-4800.

The manual contains a section on indoor structures and some of the
difficulties with indoor clay courts.

I was wondering if anyone had experience with portable tennis courts. I'm
looking to utilize a high school gymnasium for tennis classes. I'm looking
for a portable court that I could lay on the gym floor for an after school
program.

Thanks,
