Pickleball court lighting requires optimization around two main things: energy savings and usability. Without these two key concepts, you are going to pay excessive energy bills and have a poor playing experience.
Pickleball court lighting requires optimization around two main things: energy savings and usability. Without these two key concepts, you are going to pay excessive energy bills and have a poor playing experience. LED Lighting is the number one energy efficient pickleball court lighting option. Nothing comes close to LEDs ability to reduce energy consumption by up to 75%. This enables the conversion to an LED solution to pay for itself.

There is no doubt LED lighting is the right choice for indoor pickleball facilities, but there are additional factors that should be considered:
- Orientation of the lighting (direct or indirect depending on the ceiling area)
- Positioning of the lighting (ensure light levels are consistent)
- Installation Process (does the installer have experience, how long will it take)
