Court Lighting Types

  • Push Button

    Lights do not come on unless a participant activates the lights. The lights stay on for approximately one (1) hour. At that time a buzzer sounds and the participant must push the button again for the lights to stay on. The lights go out automatically if the button is not pushed. (At some sites the system is set so that only 2 or 4 courts are activated at a time). If the lights go out, it will take 15 minutes to restart.
  • Timer

    The lights are controlled by a timer that turns the lights on between dusk and 10 p.m.
  • Manual

    Staff turns the lights on and off.
