What are the standard specifications/measurements in the playing area of a tennis court?
I am building our village concrete tennis court. Just want to know the standards measurements.
The court is
78 feet (23.77 meters)long
and its width is 27 feet (8.23 meters)-FOR SINGLES MATCHES
or 36 feet (10.97) meters- FOR DOUBLES MATCHES
The net is
3 feet 6 inches (1.07 meters high)
The posts are
3 feet (914 milimeters)
Exterior dimensions of a regulation tennis court are 60′ x 120′. These are the dimensions of the fence line, not the playing lines. Playing lines are 78′ from baseline to baseline and 36′ between the doubles lines. Thus, you have 21′ from baseline to fence line and 12′ from the doubles sideline to the adjoining side fence line.
