A Covair Structures single skin seasonal airdome has enjoyed a successful first term at Billericay Lawn Tennis Club in Essex – despite weather-related near disaster.
The inflatable building provides covered play on three artificial clay courts, ensuring that the club can continue coaching and competitions even in bad weather.
Installed on 24 September 2013, the structure had its first major test a month later, on 27 October, when gale force winds hit the south of England. Despite moving around, the dome survived the storm and escaped being hit by a felled tree that instead landed on the surround fencing.
At the end of March, the dome was then dismantled for the summer months, taking four workers just three and a half hours. It was rolled on a trolley into a specially-constructed steel storage shed.
Billericay Lawn Tennis Club has ten tennis courts in total.
