Design courts that don't spark noise complaints
Engineer smarter pickleball projects with SLN/CR’s proven sound mitigation systems
Unmitigated pickleball noise is a growing liability. Civil engineers are often the first line of defense—tasked with designing facilities that meet community expectations, comply with zoning laws, and withstand legal scrutiny.
Without a proven noise plan:
-
Projects face public opposition
-
Cities cite zoning violations
-
Courts risk shutdowns or redesign

I've seen a lot of court projects get cancelled because of noise issues. Every great site plan needs smart sound control. SLN/CR gives you lightweight, code-ready solutions engineered for peace and quiet.
