Forked Lightning Racquet Club


Duvon™ retrofitted six courts under a unified ProCourt specification, restoring instant-on response and tournament-grade uniformity to the club's evening league schedule.

Forked Lightning Racquet Club operates a high-traffic multi-court schedule with back-to-back league play running well into the evening. The club's prior fixtures suffered from slow restrike, declining lumen output, and uneven ball-tracking near the back fence.

We specified the ProCourt Series with a 5000K spectrum and tightly controlled cut-off optics. Each court received a six-luminaire arrangement on existing structural poles, sized for the doubles-line envelope plus a 5 ft run-out band.

Post-installation verification confirmed 50-fc average maintained illuminance with 1.4:1 uniformity, instant-on response under one second, and a measured glare rating below GR 50 at primary sightlines. The club has since extended evening reservations by two hours per court without an increase in operating energy spend.
