Lighting Solution

Padel courts can either be lit by the use of integrated or extended fence posts as part of the surrounding fence enclosure inset by 4.0m from the back of the court; or by the use of standalone sport light columns outside of the padel court enclosure. All light fittings shall be installed to create a minimum 6.0m high clear space above the padel court playing area.

The minimum lighting performance standards for padel courts are defined as follows:

Venue Type	Minimum illunination at ground level (z=0)
National/International Competition>	500 lux(E av) with 0.7 uniformity
Regional competition and recreational use	300 lux(E av) with 0.5 uniformity

Lighting designs shall use a calculation grid spacing of 1.0m x 1.0m (or lesser) dimension over the playing area centred on the net line. Lighting designs provided by designers and manufacturers should fully reveal the tilt angles of the fittings in order to provide information concerning potential glare issues to adjacent property owners.
