Customizing Elements#

Manual Colors#

You can override themes by setting colors directly:

# Custom White Background, Black Lines
court = TennisCourt(pitch_color='white', line_color='black')

BSU Theme Guidelines#

  • Service Zones: Dashed vertical lines divide the service box into three equal columns (Wide, Body, T).

  • Backcourt: A dashed horizontal line bisects the No Man’s Land to help analyze Rally Depth (Deep vs Shallow).

Scatter Styles & Colormaps#

  • Scatter: Use SCATTER_STYLES presets (e.g., 'winner_fh') in scatter().

  • KDE/Heatmap: Use bsu_red, bsu_blue, bsu_green colormaps.
