Pickleball Court Lighting
Small Court. Fast Pace. Big Lighting Demands.
Pickleball might be played on a smaller court—but when it comes to lighting, the expectations are just as high. Whether it’s an outdoor park, a private club, or a multi-court indoor center, the right lighting makes all the difference for visibility, safety, and player experience.
Problems
Low-quality LEDs or poor optical design lead to inconsistent color temperatures, and rapid movement requires high lighting accuracy: pickleball is a high-speed sport, and athletes need to respond quickly, Traditional lamps may cause uneven light distribution, affecting judgment.
The equipment damage frequency is high: Equipment is often hit by balls, and traditional lamps are prone to damage. Increase maintenance costs and downtime.
The reflection design of traditional pickleball lamps is unreasonable, and direct light or secondary reflection causes glare, resulting in visual fatigue. Inefficient optical design leads to large optical loss and requires higher power compensation brightness.
The traditional outdoor Pique ball light wire is unprotected, and the rainwater seeps in or mechanical pull causes short circuit/break.
Thermal deformation of the lens causes light distribution deviation.
Pickleball Court Lighting Arrangement
Pickleball court standards require that lighting be provided by lamps mounted on 30-foot poles with an average brightness of 2.0 foot-candles (fc) and a maximum/minimum ratio of 30 or less.
Mounting lamps on twenty-foot poles enables pickleball players to see the ball as it rises in its high arc. Shorter ones will cause the ball to disappear as it reaches above the lights and reappear elsewhere as it returns to the court.

Frequently Asked Question
01Can one light pole cover two courts?
In many setups, yes. With the right beam angle and mounting height, one pole with dual fixtures can light two adjacent courts efficiently. We’ll design the layout to fit your site perfectly.
02 Do you provide lighting layout and recommendations?
Yes—we offer free lighting designs based on your site plan, pole positions, and usage needs. That way, you’ll know exactly how it will perform before you order.
03How long do the LED lights last?
Our LED lights typically last 50,000 to 100,000 hours, depending on the model. That’s years of use with minimal maintenance—no bulb replacements or warm-up time needed.
