Barrier Net Tips & Tricks

Know Your Mesh Size

4" for Basketball, Soccer, Volleyball and other large ball sports
1-3/4" or 1-7/8" for Baseball, Softball, Cricket, Indirect Lacrosse, High-Impact Soccer
1-1/2" for High-Impact Lacrosse, Hockey
3/4" or 7/8" for Golf

Know Your Gauge

Gauge refers to twine diameter. The higher the number, the thicker the net, the longer the lifespan.
Only use #18 nets for large ball light impact applications like volleyball backstop nets.
#36 is the most widely used gauge for baseball backstops.
#60 is not recommended for baseball backstops due to it's heavy weight and limited spectator visiblity.
Dyneema is used by most MLB teams for their net backstops. Contact us for pricing.

Make Your Outdoor Barrier Net Water Resistant

Nylon nets require a latex dip to be truly water resistant. Very important since most backstop nets are too large to take down in the off season.

Add Extra Rib Lines to Oversized Barrier Nets

Rib lines are 3/8" ropes woven into the net to provide additional support.
Rib lines should run the length of your backstop net. Spaced every 10-12 ft.
Always use the border rope or rib line as attachment points. Never attach directly to the mesh itself.

I was looking for a one post pickleball system and chose Practice Sports because their price was the best I could find on the internet. The next day, I changed my mind and decided I wanted a two post system. I called their customer service number and talked to a very helpful actual human who worked with me to change my order. The one drawback was that shipping took three weeks.

I ordered custom Batting Cages and their service was stellar. A few days after I ordered I needed to make some changes and they were great help and the changes were made and I still received the order faster than promised by other companies. This was a great company to work with.

Great customer service and an excellent product. My men’s league baseball team purchased an outfield fence (471ft in length, 5ft for each pole option) and we finally got some nice weather to set it up. Wow! It looks great. Sturdy material and easy to install, this fence has made our baseball field the envy of the city! I appreciated the customer service assisting me with which fence to go with and being there throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend this company and this product.

I built a basketball court at my home and couldn't be more pleased on how everything went. I worked with Chad Schneider and he was always professional and got to all my needs quickly. He helped me throughout the whole process and without his great service it would have been a lot harder project. I highly recommend Chad and Practice Sports, Inc.

About a year ago we used practice sports to outfit our entire facility. From nets, screens, turfs, and balls they provided great customer service and quality. We had a small problem with some of the softballs we received, but Practice Sports, Inc. handled it quickly and efficiently!

Worked with Chad Schneider at Practice Sports Inc when we were customizing our playground set. He was very professional and quick to call us back. Chad made great efforts to coordinate with our installer the delivery of our equipment and a seamless installation so our kids could enjoy their new gift. Furthermore, the first delivery some of the equipment was damaged and he was diligent on getting the new equipment delivered so there was no delay in finishing the install. Good company and a great experience.

I ordered the PSI NetShield for our indoor batting cage and it is great - does exactly what it says it does. The reason for 4 stars is the lack of real communication after the order is placed. Because the order is a bit custom (you specificy the size you want) there's no real confirmation or acknowledgement after you place the order and the card is charged. I reached out via email to the company and they replied promptly that my order was being prepared so they do respond - which is great. It just would be nice to have an interim notification once the order is placed and they are working on it. But great product!
