Create the Ultimate Augusta Backyard: Bocce, Pickleball, and Turf That Ties It All Together

Backyards have always been areas to unwind and socialize, but more Augusta homeowners are converting them into active environments for fun, play, and entertainment. From friendly bocce matches to America’s fastest-growing sport, pickleball, a well-planned outdoor area can unite loved ones like nothing else.
The key to making it all work? A surface that looks great, plays well, drains quickly, and doesn’t demand endless upkeep. That’s where artificial turf shines.
WHY ARTIFICIAL TURF IS THE PERFECT FOUNDATION FOR BACKYARD GAMES?
Traditional lawn turf grass is visually appealing, but it comes with endless upkeep demands — irrigating, cutting, fertilizing, and patching. For game courts, that means unsteady surfaces, muddy patches, and unreliable performance.
Artificial turf offers the same green appeal without the headaches. A proper artificial turf installation gives you a flat, durable foundation that endures constant activity, throughout the year. Turf also provides seamless flow between different areas — like your bocce court, a pickleball court, and relaxation areas — so your backyard feels well-designed and unified.
WHY TURF WORKS FOR BOCCE
Bocce is all about precision, and a quality surface is essential. Grass deteriorates and gravel moves, leaving you with inconsistent play. Southwest Greens bocce turf provides a consistent foundation that lets the game flow.
Another win for turf? Drainage. Synthetic turf solutions from Southwest Greens are engineered for rapid drainage, so your bocce lane stays playable even after rain. No puddles, no mess, just consistent play year-round. And since fake grass doesn’t require mowing or reseeding, you can spend less time maintaining and more time playing.
PICKLEBALL MEETS ARTIFICIAL TURF
Pickleball courts are typically built on solid surfaces, but the surrounding areas play a big role in the experience. Artificial turf makes a great match:
- It forms tidy, cushioned boundaries that keeps dirt and weeds down.
- Turf areas can be used for stretching, warmups, or seating.
- The cushioned ground is easier on feet and joints compared to unpadded natural ground or concrete.
- By framing a pickleball court with synthetic turf, you get a backyard layout that’s both stylish and functional, plays well, and stays easy to manage.
MINIMAL UPKEEP = MORE PLAYTIME
Think about the hours required to maintain natural grass: regular lawn mowing, frequent watering in summer, and regularly fixing bare patches. Artificial turf eliminates the hassle. No daily hose work. No harsh treatments. No Saturdays lost to mowing.
With professional artificial turf installation, you get a surface that remains green and game-ready without the work. That means longer days spent relaxing with friends instead of fighting yardwork.
DESIGNING A BACKYARD THAT BRINGS IT ALL TOGETHER
A great backyard isn’t just about having one feature — it’s about the flow of the whole design. Imagine stepping out to a space where the pickleball court, bocce lane, and artificial lawn blend together effortlessly, united by rich green turf. Southwest Greens can customize your layout to fit yards big or small, whether you have a smaller property or room to spare.
Every installation is built with durability and lasting quality, so you get both appearance and practicality in a single design. With options for varied textures and infill choices, you can create a backyard that feels personal, welcoming, and always ready for play.
