Court Requirements: Converting a Pickleball Court

Lines

There are several ways to mark out a pickleball court on hard surfaces. Chalk lasts for several weeks in dry weather, and thick children’s chalk lasts even longer. Blue chalk from hardware stores also works well and can be applied with a line marker. Masking tape can be used if the surface is clean and smooth. A professional installation is also possible using special paint or tape. Line markers can be used for a demo game.

Hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt are best suited for playing pickleball outdoors, as long as they are free of debris and obstacles. Grass is not suitable because the ball does not bounce, but driveways can provide enough space. An area of about 9.1 by 18.3 meters would be ideal. For a more professional and durable outdoor court, specialized sports flooring and installation services are available.

The net can be made of any mesh material that does not allow a ball to pass through. It should be at least 6.63 meters long and stretched from post to post. Once the net is suspended from the posts in the center of the court, it should be 91 centimeters high at the sidelines and 86 centimeters high in the center.

Pickleball Dimensions

Whether you're setting up a temporary or permanent pickleball court, it's important to use the correct dimensions. In Austria, many clubs and recreational players use existing badminton or tennis courts. This guide shows you all the distances and heights at a glance.

The courts are the same size as a badminton court:

6,10 m× 13,41 m
The net is 91 cm high at the ends and 86 cm high in the middle.
The non-volley line is 2.13 meters from the net.
There are no outer sidelines as in tennis -> singles and doubles are played on the same court.
