Douglas Tennis Net Singles Sticks

Tennis courts are built to accommodate both singles and doubles play, so the net posts are set outside the doubles sidelines. This creates a problem for singles matches: while the net sits at the correct 36 in. height in the center, it becomes too low at the singles sidelines since the doubles posts hold it at 42 in. only at the wider doubles lines.

Douglas Singles Sticks solve this by being placed at the singles sidelines to lift the net back up to the required 42 in. height, creating the proper V-shaped slope specified by the rules of tennis. They are made from 3/4 in. aluminum with a silver finish, protective end caps for durability, and an injection-molded V groove designed to securely hold the net headband in position.

Sold per pair, these singles sticks weigh 2.000 lbs total and are a simple, purpose-built accessory for clubs and facilities converting a doubles net setup for singles play.

Do I need singles sticks if I already have a doubles net?

Yes, singles sticks are required to correct the net height for singles play since a doubles net installed at the doubles sidelines leaves the net too low at the singles sidelines; the sticks raise it to the proper 42 in. height.
