The tennis court dimensions in singles and doubles competitions are regulated by the International Tennis Federation (ITF). The court size varies depending on the age and gender of the competitors.

The tennis court

A tennis court is a rectangular court used for playing tennis. The dimensions of a tennis court are specified by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) in their annual book of tennis rules and regulations. The court is 23.78 metres (78 feet) long and 10.97 metres (36 feet) wide. The lines on the court are 0.91 metres (3 feet) wide.

The dimensions of a tennis court

The dimensions of a tennis court are specified by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) in rules governing play. The court is 78 feet (23.77 meters) long, and its width is 27 feet (8.23 meters). It divided in half by a net that is 3.5 feet (1.07 meters) high at the posts and 3 feet (0.91 meter) high in the center. The service line, which is 4 inches (0.1 meter) wide, marks the beginning of the service area, which is 21 feet (6.4 meters) wide. The baseline, which is also 4 inches (0.1 meter) wide, runs parallel to the net and 21 feet (6.4 meters) from it across the entire width of the court.

The lines on a tennis court

The tennis court lines are the boundary lines of the court. The outer boundary of a tennis court is generally between 23.77 and 24.13 metres (78 and 79 feet) wide, while the inner boundary is between 10.97 and 11.23 metres (36 and 37 feet). The service line is 21.34 metres (70 feet) from the net, while the baseline between service boxes is 18.29 metres (60 feet). The centre line divides the court in half and is used to determine player positions for service games. The Hassanpur Academy has 4 newly constructed international size synthetic grass tennis courts with state of the art floodlights for evening play.

The net

A net divides a tennis court in half, separating the opponents. The net is 3.5 feet (1.07 m) high at the posts and 3 feet (0.91 m) high in the center. The net is 7 feet (2.13 m) long and 6.5 feet (1.98 m) wide at the center. The tape that runs along the top of the net is called the strapping, and it is 0.0625 inches (0.16 cm) thick.

The height of the net

In tennis, the net is 3.5 feet (1.07 m) high at the posts, and 3 feet (0.91 m) high in the center.[1] The net is held up by either a metal cable or cord, which run through eyelets set into the vinyl bands of the posts. A separate cord runs through the grommets along the top of the net and attaches to the clamp band of an adjustable strap at each post. This strap can be adjusted to neatly tension the cord and hold up the net.

The posts

The posts that mark the boundaries of a tennis court are 3.5 feet (1.07 meters) high, and they are placed at the back of each baseline. The distance between the posts is 21 to 23 feet (6.4 to 7 meters).

The singles court

A tennis court is 78 feet (23.77 meters) long. Its width is 27 feet (8.23 meters) for singles matches and 36 feet (10.97 meters) for doubles matches. The service line is 21 feet (6.40 meters) from the net. The baseline is the farthest back line and is also 21 feet (6.40 meters) from the net.

The dimensions of a singles court

The International Tennis Federation (ITF) is the governing body for all levels of professional tennis. The ITF sets the dimensions of a tennis court for all official matches. For singles matches, the court is 23.77 feet (7.24 meters) wide, and for doubles matches, it is 27.13 feet (8.28 meters) wide. The length of the court varies depending on the age and skill level of the players; for young children and beginners, the court is 78.74 feet (23.99 meters), while for older children and adults, it is 84 feet (25.60 meters) long. The net stretches across the full width of the court and is 3.28 feet (1 meter) high at the posts and 3 feet (0.91 meters) high in the center.

The service boxes

The width of the alleys that run along the side of the court are also 2.5 feet. They’re called the “service boxes,” and they’re where players have to stand when they serve. That rule was put into place to prevent people from getting an advantage by serving from too close to the net.

The doubles court

A tennis court is 78 feet (23.77 m) long. Its width is 27 feet (8.23 m) for singles matches and 36 feet (10.97 m) for doubles matches. The service line is 21 feet (6.40 m) from the net.

The dimensions of a doubles court

A tennis court is 78 feet (23.77 meters) long, and its widest point — the doubles alleys — are 27 feet (8.23 meters) wide. The service courts are 21 feet (6.40 meters) wide, and the baseline is 36 feet (10.97 meters) from the net.

The service boxes

The service boxes are the areas at either end of the tennis court where the player stands when serving. The service boxes are 21 feet (6.4 meters) long, and they are divided in half by a center line. The service boxes extend from the baseline to the hash marks that run parallel to the net.
