Interlocking tennis court tiles need to have plenty of versatility to match the planned use case for the area. The best options will provide excellent traction for either outdoor or indoor sports.

For a successful installation of interlocking tennis court tiles, a flat surface works nicely. Go atop a cement or asphalt pad or courtyard to yield softer flooring for playing games or practicing. With a perforated surface in the tiles, rainwater drains through, allowing for a temporary installation over dirt or grass.

VersaCourt Pickleball Performance Court Tiles

For an outdoor tile specifically designed to work for tennis, racquet sports, and pickleball, the Pickleball Performance Court Tile is one of the highest-quality products available.

The polypropylene plastic surface provides a good grip for players who need to make quick movements while playing tennis. It has just the right texture for the proper ball spin. When players need to push off to generate extra power on a serve or on a key shot down the line, this material delivers.

Interlocking TopCourt Tiles

This product works perfectly for an outdoor installation, as it has perforations that run through the entire thickness of the material. After a rainstorm, this allows water to run through and drain away, rather than remaining on top of the tile material, creating a slipping hazard.

Installation of these athletic tiles takes very little time, using tabs and loops to interlock adjacent tiles. They measure only 10 by 10 inches, which makes them easy to carry and maneuver into place.

They are extremely durable and will provide the same level of performance after a couple of years of playing on them that they did when they were new.

As a final advantage of these made-in-America interlocking tennis court tiles, the model is available for sale in more than a dozen colors, including:
  • Navy Blue
  • Royal Blue
  • Olive Green
  • Slate Green
  • Bright Red
  • Yellow

What Other Plastic Tiles Have Perforations for Backyard Multi-Sport Courts?

Another high quality type of tile for tennis and pickleball is the Outdoor Game Court Tile. Like the MT2, it has perforations all the way through the tile, ensuring that rainwater drains away after a storm. This is similar to the Pickleball Performance Tile but is more for multi-purpose for basketball, tennis, volleyball, and shuffleboard.
