What’s the Ideal Size for a Multi-Purpose Paved Sports Court?

The best dimensions for a paved sports court depend on its intended use. A common size for a court intended for multiple sports (e.g., basketball and tennis) is around 60 feet by 120 feet. This allows for flexibility in marking different sports lines and facilitates adequate space for play and safety.

Keep in mind that buffer space around the court is essential for safety and comfort. For basketball courts, we recommend an additional 3 feet on all sides. Tennis courts should have at least 12 feet behind each baseline and 6 feet at the sides for proper play.

When you’re unsure of the best court sizing, our technicians will help you visualize, plan, and create a space that meets all your criteria.

Basketball Court Dimensions

The standard size for a full basketball court is 94 feet by 50 feet for professional and college basketball, while high school courts are typically 84 feet by 50 feet. A half-court for casual play is approximately 47 feet by 50 feet, but this can vary depending on available space and specific project requirements.

Tennis Court Dimensions

Singles and doubles courts share the same length but differ in width. Singles tennis court dimensions typically measure 78 feet by 27 feet. Doubles tennis court dimensions are 78 feet by 36 feet. Most often, courts consist are doubles-width with additional markings for the singles court.

What Goes Into a Successful Sport Cout Installation?

A successful sport court installation requires careful planning, proper materials, and expert execution. Essential considerations include site selection, permitting approval, site preparation, foundation and base layer installation, asphalt installation, and finally sealcoating once the asphalt is fully cured.

How Long Will Your Sports Court Last?

With a diligent maintenance plan in place, your sports court can last up to 30 years. In high-traffic and heavy-usage areas—like schools and public parks—the average lifespan of a sporting court is between 15 and 20 years. Climate conditions, material quality used during initial installation, and proper base preparation all influence the lifespan of your investment.

What Are the Maintenance Recommendations for Asphalt Sporting Surfaces?

Keep your court in top shape so more people in your community can access this space and play the games they love. Investing in sealcoating is a great way to protect against moisture and UV damage. Seal coat applications every two to three years will help maintain your court’s smooth and blemish-free appearance.

Filling cracks as soon as they appear prevents water from seeping into the base of your court and causing more extensive damage. Another essential maintenance protocol for keeping your court safe and accessible is to plan for resurfacing every seven to ten years. Doing this will restore smoothness and help you guarantee optimal playing conditions.
