Tennis Court Clay Base

Tennis Court Clay Base – This blend is created with a high clay content, ideal for forming the base of the tennis court.
Tennis Court Clay Top Dress
An engineered product, Tennis Court Clay is a blend of baked and virgin clay that provides the desired playing surface. Mar-Co Clay provides two standard products that combine to make a tennis court that can withstand everyday play and conditions.
Tennis Court Clay Top Dress – This blend consists of a fine chip (1/8” minus) to top-dress the court. It helps give traction and grit to the top finish, allowing players to move around the court with the necessary speed and agility. The Tennis Court Clay Top Dress provides high drainage with good water retention, like all Mar-Co products.
Cricket Pitch Clay
Cricket Pitch Clay is virgin unfired grey clay, crushed and screened to less than 3/16″, available dry or moisturized in bags or bulk. Moisturized Pitch Clay becomes tough and “dough-like,” which allows it to be formed and tamped, and it bonds well to existing clay material.

Sports Field Pathways
Whether you want a firm or looser feel underfoot, Mar-Co has the right product for pathways accessing fields, parks, or any other area within a recreational center. All three options offer simple maintenance and Mar-Co’s signature red colour for an attractive, professional look.
Garden Path
The Garden Path mix was built to last, with the easiest maintenance of all our sport field pathways. It consists of a baked clay that has been processed and refined to a particle size of 1/2” minus, which doesn’t degrade as rapidly as organic materials or erode in the rain. Perfect for medium-traffic areas, it locks together to form a smooth, firm, permeable surface.

"Maintenance of the fields is so much easier and faster then it ever was before we installed the MarCo Clay. If time, looks, and play are important to you then I would recommend installing the MarCo Clay mix on your field."
"The MarCo Clay has increased the playability of our fields from the stand point that we can get fields ready for play sooner after a rain storm. We have been asked to host the Williamsport Little League District tournaments in our area. We have had positive feed back from many of the teams that have played on our new MarCo Clay fields. Maintenance of the fields is so much easier and faster then it ever was before we installed the MarCo Clay. If time, looks, and play are important to you then I would recommend installing the MarCo Clay mix on your field."

"In my 35 years experience in testing and installing baseball and softball field skinned area soil, I recently found the best mixture ever – Mar-Co Clay Ball Diamond Products."
"In my 35 years experience in testing and installing baseball and softball field skinned area soil, I recently found the best mixture ever – Mar-Co Clay Ball Diamond Products. It’s the best in evaporation rate, playability, ease of maintenance, and stability (resists rutting and moving into the grass edge). And the number overall quality is it doesn’t get muddy when wet. It’s amazing. All my customers love it."

"Adding Mar-Co’s #15 Standard mix to our infield and the Clay Track Surfacer to our warning track has greatly enhanced the appearance of our ballpark and made prep time easier. In the spring, we’re playing when most other games are rained out."

"The return on investment has been significant. The Mar-Co mix may have seemed expensive up front, but I’ve had more teams asking to rent the diamonds than ever before, and we’re hosting a lot more tournaments now."

"Within two weeks of contacting Mar-Co to seek advice about a neglected ball field, they’d delivered clay and had a crew on the job. They did an amazing job and – to our absolute amazement – this little town has a beautiful and playable field once again."
