PICKLEBALL COURTS

​

PICKLEBALL CONSTRUCTION

Pickleball courts need a minimum space of 30'x60' with the playing area being 20'x44'.

Pickleball courts can be build of asphalt or concrete.

Post tension concrete is the preferred method of court construction. Post tension concrete reduces or eliminates the need for control joints, helps the courts resist cracking and, if cracking occurs, helps to hold cracks together.  

Concrete courts should have a vapor barrier installed to avoid moisture issues. A medium broom finish is required for a mechanical bond with the coatings. Concrete must cure for a minimum of 28 days before applying the color coating system.

​​​

Pickleball courts can also be built of asphalt. Asphalt pickleball courts do not necessarily require expansion joints as asphalt is more flexible than concrete. However asphalt is more likely to develop low areas due to settlement. Asphalt should be installed with a paving machine on a properly sloped and compacted base.

PICKLEBALL SURFACING

Pickleball court surfacing is identical to tennis and basketball courts. The process consists of cleaning, crack & surface repairs, filling low areas and application of base and color coatings, and striping the lines.
