  "description": "What this net is for\n\nThis is a portable badminton net for gardens, driveways, campsites, beaches and halls. It is 4.27m wide, stands on its own poles, and packs into its own carry case.\n\nIt is not a fixed court net. Think of it as the net you bring to the game, rather than the net a sports hall keeps up all winter.\n\nWidth: why 4.27m helps\n\nA full badminton court is 6.1m wide for doubles. No portable garden net matches that, and it does not need to.\n\nWhat width changes is how many shots go around the net rather than over it. At 4.27m this net covers most of a normal garden rally. Fewer arguments about whether a shot counted, and longer games.\n\nHeight: use the settings\n\nThe poles carry three marked heights, and the top one is 155cm. On a full-size court the net stands at 1.55m at the posts, so the top setting gives adults a game that feels right.\n\nThe lower settings are there for younger players and for other games. A child who can lift a shuttle over the net will keep a rally going. A child who cannot will give up after five minutes.\n\nChanging height takes seconds, so one net can suit a whole family, a school PE group or a mixed club session. If you need the exact lower heights before you order, email theteam@customersupport.care and we will confirm them.\n\nSetting it up\n\nThe net needs no stakes and no tools. Once you have done it once, it takes about two minutes.\n\nA simple routine\n\n1. Take the poles out of the case. The sections are joined by a bungee cord, so they pull together into shape.\n2. Stand the poles up on flat ground.\n3. Fit the net and set it to the height you want, using the marks on the poles.\n4. Pull the strap to take the slack out of the net. A taut net plays better and looks tidier.\n\nThe first time, allow a few extra minutes to work out which part goes where.\n\nWhere it works\n\nBecause there are no pegs, the surface does not matter much. What matters is that the ground is flat.\nLawn and garden: the obvious home for it.\nDriveway or patio: works straight away, nothing to push into the ground.\nBeach or campsite: fine on firm, flat ground. On a breezy day, weigh the feet down with a bag or a stone.\nIndoors: a hall or large room with enough ceiling height for a high clear. Check what is behind the net before anyone serves hard.\n\nOther games on the same net\n\nThe store sells this same net for volleyball and football tennis. Casual tennis and pickleball work too. Drop the net to a lower setting and it becomes a different game.\n\nKeep expectations sensible. For volleyball, the full men's net height is 2.43m and the women's is 2.24m. This net is a recreational version of those games, not a match setup.\n\nLooking after it through a season\n\nMost portable nets are ruined in storage, not in play. Two habits make the difference.\n\nDry it before it goes away\n\nNylon copes with rain. A damp net folded into a case and left in a shed does not. Let it dry first, even if that means leaving it over a chair for an hour.\n\nKeep grit out of the poles\n\nSand and grit in the pole sections stop them sliding together cleanly. After a beach day, shake each section and wipe the poles before packing.\n\nIt is made for outdoor use, but it is not a fixture. Packing it away after play is what the case is for, and it is what keeps the net usable for the next season.\n\nFor clubs and schools\n\nFor a school yard, a youth club or a PE store cupboard, a portable net earns its place because it goes up and comes down between sessions.\n\nIf you need several, use our /wholesale/ page to ask for a quote.",
