Sports fencing plays a crucial role in creating safe and controlled environments for activities such as football, tennis, basketball, and multi-use games. At Pro Fencing, we specialise in robust, long-lasting fencing solutions designed to contain sports play while keeping spectators, nearby properties, and passers-by protected from stray balls. Whether you’re a school, sports club, or local council, our experienced team installs high-quality mesh fencing, rebound panels, and ball-stop netting to meet your facility’s unique needs and safety standards.
From multi-use games areas (MUGAs) to large-scale playing fields, our CHAS and Constructionline-accredited approach ensures a professional, durable, and visually appealing perimeter that meets UK health and safety requirements.

Five FAQs
Q: Is rebound mesh suitable for all sports?
A: Yes. Rebound mesh is designed to handle ball impacts at lower levels, making it ideal for football, basketball, and other high-contact sports. If needed, we can add ball-stop netting above the mesh for sports like rugby or cricket.Q: Can I have different fence heights for various pitch areas?
A: Absolutely. We can create customised sections with different heights, such as rebound mesh up to 1.2m for standard play and taller netting for overhead ball containment (4–6m+), depending on your specific requirements.Q: Does sports fencing block visibility for spectators?
A: Mesh fencing offers clear lines of sight, ensuring uninterrupted viewing for referees, coaches, and fans. Heavier steel or rebound panels maintain this benefit while providing enhanced durability.Q: How do you ensure the fence’s durability over time?
A: We use galvanised or powder-coated steel panels for corrosion resistance. Proper post concreting and tensioning reduce structural fatigue, and occasional inspections help spot any issues early.Q: Can sports fencing integrate gates for easy equipment transport?
A: Yes. We often include pedestrian or double-leaf gates to accommodate player access, maintenance, or vehicular entry for line-marking and turf upkeep.
