What we do

Every line matters. Every floor deserves care. Through precision court marking and expert maintenance advice, we help sporting surfaces perform beautifully for years to come.

Court Layout

Plan Your Courts. Define Your Game.

A new sports floor is a significant investment. The right planning ensures it delivers lasting performance and a playing environment tailored to your school.

We work closely with schools to record existing court layouts, take precise measurements, including basketball backboard projections, and explore floor colours, court configurations and opportunities to introduce additional sports.

From refreshing established layouts to incorporating your school colours and bespoke logo, we help you make informed decisions that bring your vision to life.

Court Marking

Precision in Every Line.

At Biddle Sport, performance is defined by the balance of precision, expertise and attention to detail. Every line has a purpose. Every measurement matters.

Exceptional court marking takes more than accuracy. It demands experience, patience and a craftsman’s eye. From the first measurement to the final line, we create clear, precise court markings that define the playing space and bring the game to life.

Because the lines do more than mark the court. They define the game.

Softwall

Protection by Design.

Every sports hall should be a place where players focus on the game with confidence. Softwall wall panels help reduce impact by more than 50%, enhancing protection where players may be unable to stop before reaching a hard wall.

A cost-conscious way to enhance existing sports halls, Softwall helps address areas where run-off space falls below recommended dimensions. With a clean, considered finish, it brings a refined aesthetic to existing facilities and ambitious sports hall designs.

Protection that performs. Design that belongs.

Creativity.
Performance.
Sustainability.

At Biddle Sport, we help schools get the most from their sports floors through expert court design, professional line marking, recoating and maintenance advice.

Designing your new sports floor
Visualising a new sports floor can be challenging. We make it easier with an early site meeting involving the Head of PE and Facility Manager, followed by a full-colour, detailed court layout drawing for approval before work begins.

Planning early gives you time to explore flooring options, colours, sports layouts and school branding, helping you make the most of your investment. Our design software includes every Taraflex floor colour and Dr. Schutz Sport line paint colour, allowing us to bring your ideas to life and show you what’s possible before committing.

Maintain, refresh or replace?
We help schools make informed decisions to extend floor life, reduce costs and improve performance. From professional court remarking and recoating at around 10 years to ongoing maintenance advice, we help protect your investment and keep your facility performing at its best.

We also offer Softwall impact-absorbing wall panels to improve safety and modernise existing sports halls.

Plan ahead. Design wisely. Maintain with care. Make every floor last.

asked questions

Does Biddle Sport provide court planning as well as court marking?

Yes. Court planning and court marking are provided together as one complete service. We plan the court layout to suit the facility and its intended use, then carry out the marking to bring that plan to life. We do not provide standalone court layout drawings.

When should court planning take place in a new sports hall project?

Court planning should take place early in the project, ideally before the sports flooring and court marking specifications are finalised. This allows court layouts, dimensions, colours and the intended use of the hall to be properly coordinated, helping avoid conflicts and costly changes later. Biddle Sport provides court planning as part of its complete court marking service.

Can existing sports court lines be remarked, and how do I know when they need renewing?

Faded colours, worn edges, broken lines or markings that are difficult to distinguish are clear signs that remarking is needed. It is also important to review whether the current maintenance regime is adequate. Biddle Sport can assess the markings, floor condition and maintenance practices to recommend the most appropriate solution.

Who can benefit from Biddle Sport’s services?

Schools, academies, leisure centres, sports clubs, facility managers, architects and flooring contractors can benefit from our specialist knowledge of court planning, precision court marking and sports floor maintenance. We work with clients to help create well-planned playing environments and make informed decisions about the care of their sports floors.

Can Biddle Sport advise on an existing sports floor before work is commissioned?

Yes. We can discuss your requirements and assess the existing court layout, markings and floor condition to help determine the most appropriate approach. Whether you are planning new court markings, remarking existing courts or seeking sports floor maintenance advice, we help you understand the options before proceeding.

Why is sports floor maintenance important?

Regular maintenance preserves a sports floor’s performance, appearance and lifespan. Unsuitable cleaning products or incorrect maintenance schedules can severely affect floor performance and cause damage. Using the right products, following manufacturer guidance and addressing wear early helps protect the floor and avoid premature replacement.

Does Biddle Sport offer independent sports floor maintenance advice?

Yes. Biddle Sport has extensive knowledge of the different sports floor manufacturers represented in the UK market. We draw on this experience to provide informed, practical maintenance advice tailored to the specific flooring system, its manufacturer’s recommendations and the needs of your facility. Our aim is to help you make the right decisions to maintain your floor, preserve its performance and extend its useful life.
