CLASS-LEADING SPORTING SHADE FOR SCHOOLS.

Covered sports courts are fast becoming essential infrastructure for schools, allowing physical activity and events to go ahead, rain, hail, or shine. Tensile membrane roofs offer even, natural lighting without harsh shadows, creating a pleasant environment for both students and staff. The breathable design also allows for airflow, reducing heat build-up under the canopy.

MakMax TensoSport structures are purpose-built to meet the demands of school sports. From basketball and netball, to volleyball and tennis, we understand the design details that really matter, like backboard clearance or space behind a tennis baseline.

Benefits for Schools:

• UV protection and weather resilience.
• Translucent roofing for natural light.
• Improved year-round usability of sports courts.
• Custom designs to suit specific sports and school requirements.

From stadium roofing and grandstand covers to bar canopies, entry shades, and amenities blocks, MakMax Australia has played a key role in some of the most iconic global stadiums.

With modern stadiums increasingly designed as multi-purpose venues—hosting multiple sporting codes, concerts, and large-scale events—our tensile membrane roofing solutions create stunning, functional, and long-lasting stadium architecture. Favoring durable and high-translucency PTFE for stadium roofing thanks to it’s long life and strength, MakMax has also incorporated clear ETFE film into our designs, creating dynamic and architecturally striking stadium designs.
