The additional capacity versus the squad level deployment is ideal for handling larger groups or busy events. <br> <br> For passing trade, this model is aimed at event with at least 750 people per day visiting, most of whom are looking for activities. <br> <br> The primary sources of business are:</p> <ul> <li>Large festivals and fairs</li> <li>Corporate functions</li> <li>Pre-season and post-season sports club carnivals</li> <li>School functions especially end of year break-ups</li> </ul> <p> <span lang="en-us"><b>Business in Brief</b></span></p> <p> Most games are 7 minutes long with a maximum of 40 players per game. <span lang="en-us">Here's a couple of examples, with 40 guns operating at a busy event, the business can generate sales per hour of operation:</span></p> <ul> <li><span lang="en-us">40 guns x 4 games per hour (gph) x $5 per game $800 per hour, or </span></li> <li><span lang="en-us">40 guns x 4 gph x $4 = $640ph. </span></li> </ul> <p><span lang="en-us">Please note that these numbers are average estimates.

Many tennis courts are flood-lit so it is ideal for playing at night, or for a fun activity for the delegates at a convention.
