Cushioned surfaces for your court
More comfort underfoot
CushionX adds a resilient layer beneath the acrylic playing surface. AT Sports designs the system to increase force reduction and improve player comfort during play.
A choice of cushioning
CushionX mat options include 4 mm, 6 mm, and 8 mm thicknesses. We help match the system to your court, expected use, and project budget.
Your colors and game lines
The cushion layer works beneath an acrylic finish. Choose a color layout and markings for your preferred sport, or plan a shared court for several games.
New courts and renovations
Consider cushioning when building a new court or updating an existing one. We first review the base, drainage, and surface condition to determine a suitable scope.
Cushion court FAQs
Planning a cushioned pickleball or tennis court? Start with the questions that affect the playing experience, installation scope, and long-term care.
How is a cushion court different from standard acrylic?
Standard acrylic surfacing provides the court's color, texture, and game lines. A cushion system adds a resilient layer beneath the finish. The underlying slab still provides structural support. When comparing proposals, ask which cushion system is included and what preparation and finish layers are part of the price.
Can cushioning be added to an existing court?
It may be an option after a site assessment. The condition of the existing surface, drainage, cracks, and previous coatings all matter. An overlay should follow appropriate preparation and repairs. Send us photos of the whole court and any problem areas so we can discuss the next step.
Will cushioning prevent cracks or injuries?
Cushioning is intended to improve comfort; it does not guarantee injury prevention or eliminate movement in the underlying court. Surface condition, footwear, playing habits, and ongoing care still matter. A cushion layer should not be treated as a structural repair for a failing slab.
How much does a cushion court cost?
The estimate depends on court area, the selected system, preparation and repairs, site access, colors, and line layout. A new court may also include concrete, fencing, lighting, and equipment. We provide a project-specific scope so you can compare the cushion upgrade with the rest of your court investment.
How long does installation take?
The schedule depends on the condition of the court, the amount of preparation, the chosen system, and suitable weather. A new concrete court also needs to meet the surfacing system's readiness requirements. We explain the installation sequence and when the finished court can return to play as part of your project plan.
How do I care for a cushioned court?
Keep leaves and debris off the surface, address drainage problems, and check for damage or unusual wear. Use cleaning methods and equipment approved for the installed coating system. Ask us for care guidance before pressure washing, applying chemicals, or moving heavy equipment across the court.

How a cushioned court is built
A cushion court combines a suitable structural base, a resilient surfacing layer, and an acrylic playing finish. Each layer has a different job.
Cushioning starts with a sound court
A cushion surface is an upgrade to the playing system, not a replacement for a stable base. Before installation, Ace Courts reviews drainage, surface condition, and any existing cracks or uneven areas. For a new build, we coordinate the concrete with the selected surfacing system. For an existing court, we identify preparation and repair needs before recommending an overlay.
Choose the system around court use
A private backyard and a busy community facility place different demands on a court. Tell us who will use it, which sports you play, and how often it will be in use. We discuss the cushion option, surface finish, colors, and game lines together. AT Sports requires the CushionX system level to match intended usage for warranty eligibility; we review the applicable product terms with your project scope.
