2026 pickleball rule answer

What are the official dimensions of a pickleball court?

The court measures 20 feet wide by 44 feet long for singles and doubles. On each side of the net, the non-volley zone extends 7 feet back and spans the court's 20-foot width. The service courts lie beyond that zone.

The non-volley-zone boundary lines belong to that zone. Court dimensions are distinct from the recommended surrounding playing area and from the net-height specifications.
