This post is in partnership with Wayfair.

If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you’ve seen us spending a lot of time on our new sport court. It didn’t take me long to realize how important it is to have the right outdoor furniture. I wanted something functional, durable, and still stylish. The court isn’t quite finished (we still need to paint the basketball and pickleball lines, add fencing, install a couple of court lights, and finish up with landscaping and bistro lights), but that hasn’t stopped us (or the neighborhood!) from using it nonstop.

Even mid-project, it’s already become the heart of our backyard. With the kids shooting hoops almost every afternoon, I knew I needed to make the space more comfortable while we wait on finishing touches.

That’s where Wayfair came in. I found a few key pieces of outdoor furniture for our sport court that made it feel way more functional. Now it feels elevated & looks like an intentional part of our home.

This convertible bench might be the most versatile piece on our court. It functions as a sleek bench for spectators (aka parents with bevys in hand), but with one flip, it transforms into a compact picnic table. It’s perfect for snack breaks, crafts, or post-game chats. The durable polystyrene material means I don’t worry about weather damage or spills, and it wipes clean in seconds.

Why it works here:
✔ Great for quick seating during games or practice
✔ Doubles as a snack zone for the kids
✔ Withstands sun, rain, and rowdy usage with zero complaints

Our Adirondack chairs strike the perfect balance between modern and classic. The clean silhouette feels right at home on the sport court while still being timeless enough to fit any backyard. These chairs have quickly become the go-to spot where adults gather to relax and chat while the kids play. They’re incredibly comfortable, and I especially love the wide armrests. They’re just the right size to hold drinks, snacks, or sunscreen, making them as functional as they are stylish. We’ve had this set for two years, and they still look great, even after lots of use and all kinds of harsh weather, from blazing sun to freezing snow & ice.

Why I love them here:
✔ A designated relaxation corner steps away from the action
✔ Easy to clean + built to last
✔ Makes the court feel like part of our home, not just a play space

And while we’re still waiting on fencing and landscaping, this large deck box was a game-changer (literally). Between basketballs, water bottles, and an ever-growing collection of outdoor toys, we needed hidden storage in a big way. This deck box holds everything and still looks chic doing it. It’s right next to the court so the kids can grab what they need & toss it back in when they’re done (okay, we’re still working on that last part). It also works as extra bench seating when we have friends over.

Why it’s a must-have:
✔ Massive storage without sacrificing style
✔ Clean look that ties in with the rest of the court setup + our home’s exterior
✔ Keeps the court tidy and clutter-free

Bringing the Court to Life

Designing around a sport court was a new challenge for me. I wanted it to feel polished and intentional without losing that lived-in, family-friendly vibe. These pieces from Wayfair helped bridge that gap perfectly. They’re functional for the kids, stylish for hosting, and durable enough to hold up to all the action. Right now, Wayfair’s Black Friday in July sale is happening 7/24–7/28, with up to 80% off and free shipping. It’s the perfect time to grab outdoor pieces if you’re refreshing your space.

If you’re planning a court or just refreshing your outdoor area, having the right outdoor furniture for your sport court makes all the difference. These pieces are stylish, practical, and designed to keep up with real family life and I can’t recommend enough. I’ll be sharing more of this space on Instagram and stories soon, so stay tuned!
