Rally Master Back-Sloped Tennis Backboard (Multiple Sizes Available)

SKU: RM10x12BS

Give yourself more time to set up for the next shot with the Rally Master 8-degree back-sloped tennis backboard. The angled surface sends the ball slightly higher and farther from the wall than a flat backboard, helping players practice from a more comfortable distance. Solid, dense polyethylene panels make it a durable choice for homes, clubs, schools, parks, and recreation facilities.

Why Choose the 8-Degree Back-Sloped Model?

• Lofted ball return: The 8-degree angle sends the ball farther from the wall, giving players more preparation time between shots.
• Versatile training: The moderate slope supports groundstrokes, volleys, footwork, and conditioning drills for a wide range of skill levels.
• Solid, durable construction: 3/4-inch polyethylene panels resist punctures, splitting, dead spots, and uneven rebounds.
• Quieter, low-maintenance play: Sound-dampening material reduces noise and vibration, while the etched white net line never needs replacing.

Which Width Is Right for You?

A wider backboard gives players more room for off-center shots and side-to-side movement drills.

• 10 ft. × 12 ft.: Compact size for one intermediate-to-advanced player.
• 10 ft. × 16–28 ft.: More forgiving space for one player and movement drills.
• 10 ft. × 32 ft. and wider: Best for multiple players; allow at least 16 ft. per player.

Plan Your Court Placement

The back-sloped design extends farther into the court than a flat wall. The 8-degree model projects approximately 18 inches inside the fence, so check available run-back space before ordering. Side-court placement may be a better fit when space behind the baseline is limited.

Choose Your Mounting Setup

• Direct Connect: For straight, properly aligned fence posts or new independent posts.
• Off-Set: Includes support columns and adjustable brackets for posts that are slightly out of plumb.

Before ordering: Make sure the fence and posts are structurally sound and compatible with the selected mounting kit.

Add an Optional Catch Net

The heavy-duty black catch net helps keep high or off-target shots closer to the court. Its U.V.-stabilized net, powder-coated steel brackets and frame, and corrosion-resistant connectors are built for outdoor use. Catch nets and support poles are not covered by the structural warranty.

Plan for Delivery and Installation

Delivery: Residential orders are delivered curbside. Commercial orders are delivered to a loading dock or curbside. Arrange enough help and suitable equipment to move the panels from the delivery point to the installation area.

Installation: Each 4 ft. × 10 ft. panel weighs 150 lb. Installation requires a structurally sound mounting surface, the proper tools, and enough qualified helpers to lift and position the panels safely. Installation is the customer’s responsibility.

20-Year Structural Warranty

Pro Recreation, LLC dba Sport Systems covers Rally Master panels and mounting components against structural failure for 20 years from the shipping date. The manufacturer will choose whether to repair or replace covered parts. Customers pay prepaid inspection freight and all freight charges for repaired or replacement parts.

Not covered: Normal wear and tear, Acts of God, misuse, improper installation, vandalism, non-structural claims, catch nets, and support poles. Claims must follow the manufacturer’s current written process.
