A system and appertaining method are described to detect whether a projectile impact occurs on one side of a boundary line or the other. The system utilizes force sensing resistor-based sensors that may be configured in sections or groups and connected to a control system with a display. Sensor installation methods for the sensors and associated electronics are also provided. An impact classification system is provided for distinguishing between various events, including a footstep, ball impact and tennis racquet contact. A sensor monitoring system is provided for determining the health of sensors and providing an error indication if sensor problems exist. A service detection system is provided when the system is used for tennis that permits activation of selected groups of sensors and deactivation of others.
