Top 5 Reasons to Install an Outdoor Basketball Court in Florida
Category : Uncategorized
Investing in outdoor sports play, like a basketball court, is not as uncommon as you may think. In fact, a basketball court can be a reasonable investment, and is within reach for most homeowners with available space. For basketball enthusiasts looking to have a private court, or for athletic facilities seeking to offer basketball to members, the first step is to contact a trusted expert in sports court construction and installation.
Most court installations range from $10,000 – $35,000 on average for half and full court installations. For more customized options, costs can be much higher depending on the specifics of the construction. Here are top 5 value-adds for installing an outdoor basketball court today.
Add Property Value to Your Home with a Basketball Court
Selling a home in Florida can be a challenge due to the competitive real estate market. Additionally, homebuyers in the Orlando area have increasingly higher expectations on turn-key properties that have everything on their checklist. An option is to increase the value of your home with add-ons like a basketball court. Making the upfront investment in a basketball court now can be well worth your future sale price. By using a local expert, you can also decide on the customization and create a long-lasting experience your family can enjoy for years before you decide to sell your home.
Invest in the Health and Safety of Your Family
Due to illnesses like COVID-19, many gyms may have restricted hours or may close for months at a time. Local gyms are struggling to stay in compliance and sports teams continue to have a difficult time coming together. Now is the time to install an outdoor basketball court for avid and recreational players to continue their practice and for families to have safer exercise options. When it comes to the health and safety of our family, there is no price tag to create an at-home experience for health and wellness goals.
Develop Those Professional Basketball Skills
There is never enough time in the day, so with a court installed at home, you can save yourself a trip to the gym or other facility. Adding 20-30 minutes into your schedule allows you to refine those basketball skills over a longer period of time. If it’s for you or your rising basketball star, having a court at home encourages that extra practice time. The other benefit is when the courts are crowded or players are hogging court time. Having a court to yourself gives you the space and freedom to practice and play on your own schedule.
Personal and Versatile Gym Use
An outdoor basketball court can double up as an outdoor gym facility. Using the court for workout band exercises to increase strength training or going after full suicides to increase overall conditioning is a great way to increase its use and get more exercise throughout the week. Creating HIIT (high intensity interval training) drills are great on a basketball court. You can move from jumping rope to agility training to cardio all on a perfectly flat workout space; however, avoid bringing full gym equipment on your court to keep it in great shape!
Decrease Stress with A Private Basketball Court
After a long day of work or other mind-tiring tasks, sometimes you need to get a little fresh air and have time to yourself in the privacy of your own home. Having your own basketball court allows you the freedom to not jump in the car to get exercise. Instead you walk out to your court and have some one-on-one time or maybe invite your pals to have a short game to relieve the stress of life. On the flip side, you can also relieve stress by sending your kids out for hours! There’s nothing better than having your kids active and safe at home.
