Standard pickleball court size
Kabayan, the standard pickleball court size is 20 feet wide by 44 feet long, about 6.10 × 13.41 metres. Singles and doubles use the same court. The net splits it into two halves, each with a non-volley zone (the “kitchen”) and two service courts. Figures follow the USA Pickleball official rulebook; metric values are rounded.
Pickleball court dimensions in meters and feet
| Part of the court | Feet / inches | Metres / cm |
|---|---|---|
| Width | 20 ft | 6.10 m |
| Length | 44 ft | 13.41 m |
| Net to baseline (each side) | 22 ft | 6.71 m |
| Kitchen depth (each side) | 7 ft | 2.13 m |
| Each service court | 10 × 15 ft | 3.05 × 4.57 m |
| Net height at the sidelines | 36 in | 91.44 cm |
| Net height at the centre | 34 in | 86.36 cm |
So the pickleball court size in meters is roughly 6.1 by 13.4. When you mark a real court, use the rulebook’s exact measurements instead of rounding each small part separately.
The pickleball net
The pickleball net is lower in the middle: 34 inches at the centre and 36 inches at the sidelines. That small dip is why a shot over the middle is a little safer than one down the line. If you set up a portable net, measure both points.
How the lines work
- Kitchen line: 7 ft from the net. The line belongs to the kitchen, so a foot on it while volleying is a fault.
- Centre line: splits each half into left and right service courts, from the kitchen line to the baseline.
- Baseline and sidelines: the outer edge. A ball on the line is in.
Space around the court
The 20 × 44 ft rectangle is only the marked court. Players need room to run beyond the lines, so a playable venue is always bigger. USA Pickleball’s courts and construction guidance covers recommended surrounding space; check it before you build or rent a court.
Pickleball court dimensions in meters for a home or village court
Converting a barangay basketball court or village tennis court? Dito sa Pinas, many players paint pickleball lines on existing courts. Mark the 6.10 × 13.41 m rectangle, the 2.13 m kitchen on each side and the centre lines, then check the net height. A tennis net is higher (around 3 ft at the centre), so lower it or use a pickleball net.
