Indoor Cricket Netting
Durant Cricket offers quality, custom-made cricket nets for your indoor facilities. We tailor our nets to ensure a snug fit in your facility, providing optimal play and training conditions. Designed for you, we also offer permanent or retractable netting solutions so you can customise your indoor cricket centre to your exact needs, without limiting yourself.
Our netting solutions erase concerns of safety and durability, as we handle the installation process. This allows us to thoroughly test your netting once it has been optimally installed, checking to see if it can withstand repetitive use, and the weight and force of the balls hitting against the netting.

Indoor Cricket Surfaces
Choose from our range of dedicated, specialist flooring for your indoor cricket centre. We offer woven and tufted surfaces that simulate real game conditions indoors, with integrated shockpad systems to reduce chances of injury. Alternatively, we offer our very own DuraFlex or Gerflor Taraflex vinyl surfaces to accommodate multisport spaces.
To complete each flooring installation, we paint the floor with vibrant, long-lasting markings. This is achieved with our range of specialist marking paint and white, quick-dry aerosols. Multi-court markings are also achievable upon request.

Cricket Lighting
- Better Visibility: Proper brightness levels are essential for players to track the ball accurately and react swiftly. Evenly distributed lighting is needed to keep the playing area free of dark spots and shadows, reducing misjudgements and significantly reducing the risk of injury.
- Video Analysis: Many cricket centres rely on video analysis for training and performance assessment. Consistent, high-quality lighting ensures clear and accurate footage, allowing coaches and players to thoroughly review techniques, spot areas for improvement, and adjust performance as needed.
- Safety: Uniform lighting is essential for player safety. Uneven or dimly lit areas can create hazardous conditions, increasing the potential for collisions or other injuries. A well-lit space not only improves gameplay flow but also supports a safer environment for all players.
- Spectator Experience: Effective lighting makes the viewing experience better for spectators by lighting up the entire playing field. This helps fans to follow every play without any obstruction. This creates an immersive experience that captures the game’s excitement and detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an indoor cricket centre?
What equipment is needed for an indoor cricket training facility?
A complete indoor cricket facility usually includes:
- Cricket lane netting systems
- Indoor cricket surfaces or artificial turf
- Structural support systems for nets
- LED cricket lighting
- Safety padding and protection systems
- Retractable or fixed lane dividers
Together these elements create a safe and professional training environment suitable for schools, clubs, academies, and sports centres.
What type of surfaces are used for indoor cricket nets?
Indoor cricket centres commonly use high-performance artificial cricket surfaces designed to replicate natural pitch conditions. These surfaces provide consistent ball bounce, durability under heavy use, and low maintenance. Options may include spike-resistant turf, shock-pad systems, and specialist cricket matting for training and coaching environments.
How are cricket nets installed in an indoor facility?
Indoor cricket nets are typically installed using suspended steel cable systems or track-mounted frames attached to the building structure. Professional installers measure the space, design the lane layout, and securely mount the netting to ensure safe ball containment. Nets can be fixed, retractable, or multi-lane systems depending on the facility requirements.
What lighting is best for indoor cricket centres?
High-quality LED sports lighting is recommended for indoor cricket facilities. LED lighting provides bright, even illumination across the training lanes, improves ball visibility, and reduces energy consumption compared to traditional lighting systems. Proper lighting design also helps minimise glare and shadows for players and coaches.
How long does it take to install an indoor cricket facility?
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the project. Smaller facilities or single net lanes may be completed within a few days, while full multi-lane indoor cricket centres can take several weeks. The process usually includes site assessment, design planning, surface installation, netting setup, and lighting installation.
Case Studies

Merchant Taylors' Case Study
The project had a pronounced and primary objective: to create a facility that could cater to a diverse range of students, regardless of their cricketing backgrounds. Whether the students were novices eager to explore the intricacies of the sport or potential academy prospects refining their skills, every aspect of the facility was carefully crafted with thoughtful precision.

22 Yard Cricket Centre Case Study
This specialised Centre, dedicated to cricket enthusiasts, has been meticulously designed and is managed by individuals deeply motivated by the world of cricket. The initial idea for the facility stemmed from a persistent frustration with the lack of specialised cricket facilities, not only in Gloucestershire but throughout the entire nation.
