Valencia Academy A-Frame Tennis Tent
Project Background and Challenges
A top-tier tennis academy in Valencia, Spain operates two outdoor clay courts that remain underutilized for nearly four months each year due to seasonal rainfall and winter cold. The academy required an indoor facility that could provide year-round training conditions while preserving the existing clay court surface.
Key Challenges — Mediterranean climate limits outdoor play; available space is constrained; local regulations require a demountable structure; and the academy needed a fast-track solution.
LINGTONG A-Frame Tennis Tent Solution
Custom Design — Precision-engineered to fit the available space with zero ground damage.
Clear-Span Interior — 20m x 67m column-free space for a full tennis court and viewing areas.
All-Weather Protection — Double-layer insulated roof and side panels for year-round comfort.
Rapid Assembly — Factory pre-fabricated components for quick on-site installation.
Installation Process
The tent installation was carried out in three main stages:
Aluminum Frame Assembly — High-strength aviation-grade aluminum frame assembled using a modular bolted connection system. No welding required, ensuring structural integrity while facilitating future disassembly. The frame forms a stable triangular support system.
PVC Fabric Installation — Double-layer insulated PVC fabric, precisely cut and pre-punched at the factory, is spread over the frame and secured with specialized clips and rope systems. The air layer between the two fabric layers enhances thermal insulation.
Door and Accessory Installation — Sliding or roll-up doors are fitted for convenient access. Sidewall roll-up ventilation, lighting, and electrical systems are installed, bringing the tent to full operational readiness.
