It’s no surprise that Bakersfield residents have a higher rate of skin cancer compared to the rest of the United States. We’re one of the sunniest places in the nation, and most weather reports in the summer say that light-skinned people have mere minutes of UV exposure before their unprotected skin is damaged.
And those minutes aren’t getting any easier on your skin. Fortunately, you can still take your game outdoors without having to worry about getting burnt. We have all kinds of shade structures to choose from so you can stay cool and covered anytime you venture out to play your favorite sport.
Think of all the money you’d save on sunscreen with a Courts & Greens shade structure. No more sticky sun lotions or sweat stung eyes. Best of all, you’ll probably (confirm with your physician) reduce your risk of skin cancer! Don’t get us wrong, sunshine in moderation is good for you, but when you’re playing a sport that leaves you in the sun for an hour or longer, that exposure adds up quickly, and will remind you of your mistake with red skin and peeling flesh.
Your skin is the largest and fastest growing organ your body has. Show it some love and keep it protected this summer. We can integrate shade structures into just about any court, and you’ll find the peace of mind from extra shade well worth the extra investment.
