UltraNet Max Portable Net System

From badminton to pickle ball, this net instantly conforms to your sporting needs without requiring tools! Break it out for heavy institutional use across all age groups, then break it down and for quick transportation and easy storage in a nylon bag.

Highly Versatile

The UltraNet Max Portable Net System is ideal for most net sports, thanks to its speedy conversion from high to low net levels. The official-size, 20'W net is wide enough to play pickle ball and tennis while the net is lowered, yet quickly supports badminton at a full 61"H. Carefully labeled pipes can easily be identified and removed without tools when the switch is made, eliminating the need for multiple nets or class relocation. The entire system weighs 51 lb.

User-Friendly

This full-sized net can be and assembled just about anywhere with little effort! The frame pipes securely lock into place to prevent any hazards, and the net easily adjusts to the desired height with hook-and-loop fasteners. Within minutes, you're ready to play. Takedown is just as quick, with everything neatly fitting into a nylon bag that takes up a marginal amount of space in any closet.

Extremely Durable

Constructed with 1-1/2" square steel tubing that are powder coated for additional durability, this net will stand the test of time - and rowdy athletes. Nylon and hook-and-loop fastener adjustment straps keep nets taut and firm, preventing strain that can result in sagging.

Activity Ideas Using the UltraNet Max Portable Net System

The UltraNet Max Portable Net System offers an adaptable platform for teaching various net sports like volleyball, badminton, pickleball, and tennis. These drills focus on developing key skills like agility, coordination, and teamwork, while providing fun and challenging experiences for students at different skill levels.

Badminton Activities:

1. Badminton Relay Rallies: Divide the class into pairs on either side of the UltraNet Max. The objective is to rally the shuttlecock over the net without letting it drop. Once a pair completes 10 rallies, they move to the next station, while another pair steps up to the court.

2. Target Smash: Place target zones on the floor on both sides of the UltraNet Max. Students must aim their smashes toward the target areas, practicing precision and control. Rotate teams every 2 minutes to keep the class engaged.

3. Backhand Mastery: Set up different zones and require students to only use backhand shots to send the shuttlecock over the UltraNet Max. This drill focuses on improving backhand techniques while building hand-eye coordination.

4. Multi-Net Badminton Tournament: Set up several UltraNet Max Nets and organize the class into small teams for a round-robin badminton tournament. Players rotate through courts, emphasizing competitive play, strategy, and quick transitions between games.

5. Overhead Clear Competition: Students compete to hit the highest and longest overhead clears over the UltraNet Max. Partners challenge each other to consistently clear the net with accuracy.

Pickleball Activities:

6. Pickleball King of the Court: Divide students into small teams and rotate them through multiple courts. The winning team from each mini-game moves up to the next court, while the losing team moves down. The objective is to become the ""King of the Court"" by winning on the highest court, building competitive spirit and tactical play.

7. Serve and Return Relay: Students take turns serving and returning pickleballs over the UltraNet Max. The objective is to complete a cycle of successful serves and returns without errors, building accuracy and consistency.

8. Cross-Court Pickleball Tournament: Organize the class into small groups for a fast-paced cross-court pickleball tournament using multiple UltraNet Max Nets. Students rotate every few minutes to ensure everyone gets to play against different opponents.

9. Dink Shot Challenge: Set the UltraNet Max at pickleball height and mark target zones near the net. Players work on ""dink shots"" by gently tapping the ball into the target zones, aiming for precision and control.

10. Pickleball Serve Accuracy Drill: Students practice serving the pickleball into specific zones on the opposite side of the UltraNet Max. Each accurate serve into the target zone earns a point for their team.

Volleyball Activities:

11. Volleyball Mini-Match: Divide the class into small teams for 3v3 volleyball matches using the UltraNet Max at full height. Players rotate after each point, ensuring that everyone gets a chance to pass, set, and spike.

12. Set and Spike Practice: Students work in pairs, taking turns setting the ball high above the UltraNet Max while their partner practices spiking. This drill helps students develop timing and accuracy for offensive plays.

13. Quick Reaction Volleyball: Players position themselves in small groups near the UltraNet Max and react to balls tossed over the net by a coach. They must pass the ball quickly back over the net, focusing on quick reflexes and team communication.

Other Fun Activities

14. NitroBall: Set up the UltraNet Max at a low height for a high-energy game of NitroBall, a unique volleyball variation. Players must serve and hit the NitroBall with a downward motion, ensuring it bounces off the ground before crossing the net. Teams of 2-3 players can use up to three hits to pass the ball, working together to keep the ball in play while strategizing their next move. Rally scoring is used, and the first team to reach 21 points wins. 

15. Frisbee Accuracy Toss: Place the UltraNet Max in the middle of the gym and mark targets on both sides. Students must toss frisbees over the net, aiming to hit the targets. This game works on frisbee throwing accuracy and decision-making.
