Years in Business

  Gainesville's tennis identity is anchored by the University of Florida, whose Gators tennis programs have brought national championships to town and inspired generations of local players. Mor-Sports Group builds courts across Gainesville and Alachua County for that community, from established neighborhoods like the Duckpond and Haile Plantation to properties out toward Jonesville and Newberry. North Central Florida's transition soils, mixing sand with clay, and its heavy tree canopy make site evaluation especially important here, and our team engineers every base, grade, and drainage plan for the specific conditions of your lot.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does tennis court construction take in Gainesville?

Most Gainesville projects run 2 to 5 weeks from groundbreaking to completion. Site clearing on wooded Alachua County lots and summer rain can affect the schedule, and your timeline is confirmed during the initial consultation.

What tennis court surface is best for Gainesville?

Acrylic hard courts are the leading choice in Gainesville, handling North Central Florida's humid summers and cooler winters while resisting UV wear and staying consistent through the seasons. We help you select the right surface system and cushion level for how your court will be used.

How much does it cost to build a tennis court in Gainesville?

Gainesville court costs depend on surface type, site clearing, base preparation for local soil conditions, fencing, and lighting. Wooded lots may require tree work and additional grading that affect the investment. Contact us for a free on-site assessment and a detailed quote.

Do you handle permits for tennis court construction in Gainesville?

Yes. Mor-Sports Group coordinates permitting with the City of Gainesville and Alachua County, handling site, grading, and drainage documentation. Our in-house crew manages every phase from ground preparation through final surfacing with one accountable point of contact.

Can you build on Gainesville's clay-mixed soils?

Yes. North Central Florida sits in a transition zone where sandy soil gives way to clay, and clay-heavy sites need proper stabilization and drainage to prevent base movement and cracking. We evaluate your soil, then engineer the excavation, base depth, and drainage your specific lot requires for a court that stays true.
