Build the Perfect Atlanta Backyard: Bocce, Pickleball, and Turf in Harmony
Backyards have always been areas to unwind and socialize, but more Atlanta homeowners are converting them into active environments for games and gathering. From friendly bocce matches to America’s fastest-growing sport, pickleball, a well-planned outdoor area can bring family and friends together like nothing else.
The key to making it all work? A ground covering that’s attractive, functional, drains fast, and stays low-maintenance. That’s where artificial turf excels.
ARTIFICIAL TURF: THE IDEAL FOR BACKYARD GAMES
Traditional lawn turf grass is beautiful, but it comes with endless upkeep demands — watering, mowing, seeding, and constant repair. For game courts, that means uneven footing, messy areas, and unreliable performance.
Artificial turf delivers the same green appeal without the headaches. A proper artificial turf installation gives you a smooth, even playing field that handles frequent play, year-round. Turf also provides seamless flow between different zones — like a bocce lane, a pickleball court, and lounge space — so your backyard feels well-designed and unified.
BOCCE BALL COURTS ON TURF
Bocce is a game of accuracy, and the surface you play on matters. Natural surfaces break down quickly, leaving you with frustrating gameplay. Southwest Greens artificial bocce turf provides a consistent foundation that lets the game flow.
Another win for turf? Drainage. Synthetic turf solutions from Southwest Greens are designed to drain water fast, so your bocce lane stays usable no matter the forecast. No waterlogging, no mess, just consistent play year-round. And since fake grass doesn’t require weekly lawn care, you can save hours on upkeep and enjoy longer matches.
HOW TURF ENHANCES PICKLEBALL
Pickleball courts are typically built on solid surfaces, but the surrounding areas play a major role in comfort. Artificial turf makes a perfect companion:
- It forms tidy, cushioned boundaries that controls weeds and dust.
- Turf areas can be used for stretching, warmups, or seating.
- The cushioned ground is kinder to your body compared to unpadded natural ground or concrete.
- By surrounding the court with synthetic turf, you get a backyard setup that looks polished, supports better performance, and requires little effort.
LESS MAINTENANCE, MORE FUN
Think about the hours required to maintain natural grass: weekly mowing, constant watering during hot months, and constantly repairing worn-out spots. Artificial turf takes those chores away. No daily hose work. No chemicals. No precious time spent on upkeep.
With expert artificial turf installation, you get a surface that stays lush and ready for use without the work. That means more time hosting games and enjoying your yard instead of worrying about chores.
DESIGNING A BACKYARD THAT BRINGS IT ALL TOGETHER
A great backyard is not only about installing a single element — it’s about the way the pieces connect. Imagine stepping out to a space where the pickleball court, bocce lane, and artificial lawn smoothly flow, brought together with lush artificial turf. Our team at Southwest Greens can customize your layout to fit yards big or small, whether you have limited outdoor space or a large backyard.
