Scope

This standard sets out specific recommendations for lighting for netball and basketball where played outdoors. Recommendations for indoor netball and basketball are provided in AS 2560.2.2. This standard provides recommendations both for recreational or training and for competition levels of play, and takes into account spectator viewing requirements associated with these levels of play. Where lighting appropriate to recreation or training, or lower levels of competition are to be installed, consideration should be given to the likelihood of the installation being upgraded so that provision can be made at the time of installation to minimize the cost of the future upgrading. In addition to the recommendations of this standard, the general provisions of AS 2650, Part 1, should be observed as applicable.

The standard does not include the special lighting requirements which will apply for television broadcasting (see Preface).
