Hardcourt

It is typically made of rigid materials such as asphalt or concrete, and covered with acrylic resins to seal the surface and mark the playing lines, while providing some cushioning.

[3] Tennis hard courts are made of synthetic/acrylic layers on top of a concrete or asphalt foundation and can vary in color.

Speed of rebound after tennis balls bounce on hard courts is determined by how much sand is in the synthetic/acrylic layer placed on top of the asphalt foundation.

Some of these include brushing, pressure washing with a cleaning solution and applying chemical treatments to prevent the growth of moss and algae.

Anti-slip paint is also applied to hardcourts to give better playing qualities which enhance player safety and performance.
