Pickleball
Lower court scale does not remove the need to manage glare, ball visibility and neighbouring properties.
Apollo sports lighting
Court lighting planned around play, glare, neighbours and operating hours.
Apollo sports-lighting packages support pickleball and multi-sport projects where the goal is usable court illumination without treating lighting as an afterthought.
Anti-glare project pathwayCourt + lighting packagesGrid-connected or project-specific off-grid options
Technical overview
Representative Apollo court-lighting pathway
Lighting layout depends on court size, pole locations, surrounding properties, required performance and local electrical/compliance requirements.
01Representative court package
4 luminairesA documented Apollo court pathway uses four anti-glare lights per court.
02Representative mounting height
Approx. 6 mFinal pole height and aiming must be designed for the specific site.
03Lighting approach
Anti-glareParticularly relevant where courts sit near homes, roads or other sensitive boundaries.
04Project integration
Court + lightingLighting can be bundled with flooring, nets and other sports infrastructure.
05Remote-site pathway
Solar / off-grid optionsApollo has previously structured complete court packages around solar/off-grid lighting for suitable sites.
Final lighting performance, electrical design, pole design, glare control, consenting and compliance requirements must be confirmed for each project.
Project fit
Good court lighting is a site-design problem as much as a product choice.
Schools
Lighting can extend usable hours for community access, after-school programmes and shared facilities.
Clubs
Court and lighting packages can be coordinated so poles, surfaces and playing layouts are planned together.
Rural sites
Where grid connection is difficult, an off-grid pathway may be considered as part of the project brief.
Coastal + exposed sites
Environment, pole specification, corrosion exposure and maintenance access must be considered in the final design.
Commercial venues
Lighting becomes part of the operating model when court hours, events and customer experience depend on evening play.

Product status
What Apollo has confirmed at catalogue level.
Apollo's catalogue owner, project-brief pathway and core product record are complete enough to progress into project review and manual quotation. This is not a statement of engineering approval or destination compliance.
Apollo has an explicit regional priority map for this product. Regional mapping supports discovery and project review; it is not blanket compliance certification.
Configuration, technical evidence, interfaces, exposure or destination requirements need product-specific review before the final supply package is confirmed.
Status signals describe Apollo's current product record and project pathway. They do not replace project-specific engineering, testing, local approvals or destination compliance review.
