Pickleball court sizes


If your court requires custom dimensions, GreenSet can accommodate your needs. Here are the dimensions of a standard pickleball court:

  • The minimum playing area is 9m x 18m. The standard size is 10m x 19m.

  • The competition field size is 12m x 21m.

  • The pickleball nets are 6m long and 1m high (1m high on the sides and 0.8m high in the centre of the pitch).

  • Pickleball net poles are generally made from 3mm polyethylene and should use half a kilo of vinyl tape (Note: GreenSet recommends fibreglass blocks for strength and longevity) The net poles are placed 6m from the centre.

  • The centre strip is the same as that used for tennis.

  • The side lines are the lines perpendicular to the net on each side of the court.

  • The baselines are the lines parallel to the net at both ends of the court.

  • The overall court dimensions are 6m wide x 13m long.


Note: These dimensions apply to both single and double pickleball matches. They include the net areas, the off lines and the no bounce area (the no bounce area is 2m from the net).


The width of the pickleball lines is 5 cm (the same width as the lines on a tennis court).

The official standard size pickleball court is 44 feet long from the baseline and 20 feet wide from the baseline.


A 7-foot non-volley zone extends on each side of the net. The line of the non-volley zone defines the area called the kitchen.


There are 15 feet between the non-volley zone line and the back line. The center line divides this area into two halves 15 feet wide. This centre line is used to indicate the service areas on the right and left of each side.

Backyard Pickleball Courts


If you have a space in the backyard of your house and want to make good use of it, we dare to say that the solution is easier than you think. The installation of a court with the modular flooring system that we distribute in GreenSet is the most practical, economical, easy to install and with additional advantages that we will explain below.


1. Easy maintenance

Periodic cleaning of the modular floor with a broom, hose or leaf blower will keep the court intact for many years. As well as simplifying maintenance, you save money by not having to pay someone to do it for you.


2. Reliability

Modular floors are designed to be non-slip and shock absorbent. When running or jumping, the surface makes a slight lateral movement. This results in a significant reduction in injuries to athletes' joints and lower back from falls.


3. Personalised

Choose the colour you like, the sport or game you want - and if you can't decide and want to play more than one, multi-sports courts are there for you. And if you're limited on space, don't worry, anything is possible on GreenSet. Check out this option: tennis/pickleball courts, ideal alternatives for small spaces.


If we have convinced you that installing a court in your garden with a modular flooring system like this is the best option, contact us. At GreenSet, we want you to have unforgettable days with your family and friends.
