Tennis Nets

The right tennis or pickleball net ensures long-lasting performance and proper play. Our extensive collection of high-quality tennis nets include durable single braided models for recreational and club courts and double braided options built for heavy-use or tournament play. For pickleball, nets are almost always single braided and often designed for portability to match the sports lighter demands. At Do It Tennis, you'll find portable nets, junior nets, complete net/post packages, and repair accessories to keep any court whether tennis or pickleball ready for action.

Single vs. Double Braided Nets: What's the Difference?

Tennis nets come in both single braided and double braided constructions. Single braided nets use a single weave of durable netting and are widely used for recreational and club play due to their balance of quality and value. Double braided nets feature a thicker, denser weave created by interlacing a second layer of material, offering extra durability for high-impact environments such as tournaments or heavy-use courts. In contrast, pickleball nets are almost always single braided because pickleballs are lighter, generate less force, and often use portable net systems where lighter netting is easier to handle. The extra weight and cost of double braided construction simply isn't necessary for pickleball.

Portable Tennis & Pickleball Nets: Flexible Court Solutions

Portable nets are ideal for temporary or shared court setups perfect for driveways, gyms, schools, and multi-use spaces. Available for both tennis and pickleball, these freestanding systems let you bring the game anywhere. Most portable nets have flat bases or frames, with some models on wheels for easier movement. Pickleball versions are compact and lightweight, while tennis models are longer and sturdier to handle the larger court and higher ball impact. Portable tennis nets are almost always single braided to reduce weight and simplify setup. Net width depends on the sport:

Tennis nets: ~42 feet wide
Pickleball nets: 22 feet wide
Junior & practice nets: 10 to 30 feet

These variations align with official court dimensions and make portable nets versatile for practice, youth programs, and limited spaces.

Junior Nets: Scaled for Smaller Courts and Younger Players

Junior nets are designed for youth tennis and beginner pickleball. They are shorter in width and often slightly lower in height, making it easier for kids to rally and practice on smaller courts. Typical features include:

Width from 10 to 30 feet to fit 36-foot or smaller courts
Height around 33 to 36 inches to match junior play guidelines
Lightweight and portable, ideal for QuickStart or 10 & Under tennis programs

Some junior nets are tennis-specific, while others can be used for both tennis and pickleball practice.

Net and Post Court Packages

Do It Tennis offers complete Tennis Net/Post Packages to simplify court setup and maintenance. Each package includes high-quality posts (with various profiles), matching ground sleeves, a durable net, and essential installation accessories. Whether for a professional club or a home court, our packages provide a balance of performance, durability, and aesthetic appeal.

Tennis Net Repair & Accessories

Tennis and pickleball nets share the same core components net body, headband, cable, and center strap but their sizes and tension requirements differ. Tennis nets are 42 feet wide with a 36-inch center height and use longer, thicker cables to maintain higher tension, while pickleball nets are 22 feet wide, 34 inches high at the center, and typically use shorter or lighter-duty cables, especially for portable systems.

Additional accessories like side dowels, cable ends, and ratchets should be selected based on post style (round or square) and sport type. Do It Tennis offers everything from replacement cables and center straps to lacing twine and heavy-duty headbands to extend the life of your net.
