A. Court Specifications. The dimensions and measurements for the standard pickle ball court are:

A.1. The court shall be a rectangle 20 feet wide (6.10 m) and 44 feet long (13.41 m) for both singles and doubles matches. See Figure 2-1.

A.2. A total playing area 30 feet wide (9.14 m) and 60 feet long (18.28 m) is the minimum size that is recommended. A total size of 34 feet by 64 feet is preferred.

A.3. Court measurements shall be made to the outside of the lines. The lines should be 2 inches (5.1 cm) in width and the same color, clearly contrasting with the color of the court surface.

B. Lines and Areas. The lines and areas of the standard pickle ball court are:

B.1. Baselines. The lines parallel to the net at each end of the court are the baselines.

B.2. Sidelines. The lines perpendicular to the net on each side of the court are the sidelines.

B.3. Non-Volley Lines. The lines on each side of the net between the sidelines that are parallel to the net are the non-volley lines. These lines are located 7 feet (2.13m) from the net.

B.4. Non-Volley Zones. The zones on each side of the net between the non-volley lines and the net are the non-volley zones.

B.5. Centerlines. The lines on each side of the net bisecting the non-volley lines and the baselines are the centerlines.

B.6. Service Areas. The intersections of the non-volley zone line, the centerline and the baseline create two service areas, the left service area and the right service area.

C. Net Specifications.

C.1. Material. The net may be made of any netted material.

C.2. Net Size. The net length shall be at least 20 feet (6.1 m) extending from one sideline to the other. The net width shall be at least 2? feet (.8 m).

C.3. Mesh Size. The net? mesh size must be sufficiently small to prevent a ball from passing through it.

C.4. Height. The net shall be suspended over the center of the court and shall be 36 inches (.914 m) high at the sidelines and 34 inches (.86 m) high at the center of the court.

C.5. Center Strap. A center strap may be placed at the center of the net to enable easy adjustment to the 34 in. (.86 cm) requirement at center.

C.6. Net Edge. The top of the net should be edged with a 2 inch (5 cm) white binding over a cord or cable running through the binding. This binding must rest upon the cord or cable.

To the right you will find basketball court dimension diagrams for regulation NBA, college (NCAA), high school, junior high (jr. high) and other youth leagues. The official measurements can be used as reference for boundary lines, free throw (FT) lines, three point (3-point) lines and other perimeter sizes. Figure out how long different basketball court sizes should be according to regulation specifications.

All men's college 3-point lines moved out one foot from 19-9 to 20-9 in the 2008-2009 season. The arc will remain a true arc unlike the NBA 3-point line which is cut off on each side. Women's and high school 3-point lines will remain the same (19-9). There are two separate lines of contrasting color on most courts to account for the unchanged Women's 3-Point line. We have compiled the links below of press releases and analysis of what effect the expansion will have on the game.

The biggest variations between basketball court dimension specifications are between the American and international basketball courts. There are also big differences between the NBA and all other American court dimensions such as college and high school measurements. The NBA three point line is further out. The key is also much wider. Also, the actual length of the basketball court itself is longer.

When choosing a basketball goal to go on your basketball court the overhang is an important aspect of the system to consider. The regulation distance from the baseline to the front of the backboard is 4 feet. Most basketball systems available, at most, have a 4 foot extension arm (not overhang). This means that if you want an official perimeter baseline boundary (such that the basketball pole is not sitting on the base line), you need a basketball hoop system with a 5 foot extension arm.

Most two car driveways cannot fit much more than a free throw line although some larger driveways including 3 and 4 car driveways have enough room for a full college or NBA three point (3-point) line. If you are pouring a dedicated basketball court in your backyard (how to do it yourself, basketball court building companies), you can make it as large as you'd like. Depending on your budget, you can have a full NBA sized basketball court to a minimal half court.
