Sports Court Dimensions Calculator

Overrun zones, not the court itself. Tennis's regulation surface (78 x 27 ft singles) is actually smaller than a full basketball court (94 x 50 ft), but tennis needs 21 ft of clear space behind each baseline (the USTA/ITF-recommended standard runback used for court construction -- not a bare recreational minimum, which would be smaller, roughly 18 ft) versus basketball's flat 6 ft on every side -- 3.5 times the depth buffer at each end. Once that overrun is added, a doubles court's total footprint reaches the commonly cited 120 x 60 ft (7,200 sq ft) -- larger than a full basketball court's 106 x 62 ft (6,572 sq ft) footprint despite tennis's smaller regulation playing surface.

Less than that, on the shared surface and fencing perimeter -- but not on per-court add-ons. This calculator places multiple courts side by side sharing one sideline buffer between neighbors instead of giving each court a full buffer on both sides, so Total Surface Area (sq ft) and Fence Perimeter (ft) both grow more slowly than 3x. Gates, net/goal posts, and lighting poles, though, are priced per court with no such sharing, so those specific lines DO scale close to linearly with Number of Courts even while the shared surface area doesn't.

The acrylic sport-surface coating in this calculator only applies to Post-Tension Concrete and Asphalt -- both are structural bases that need a separate acrylic playing surface applied on top. Acrylic Over Concrete already has that finish priced into its base rate, and Modular Tiles is a complete playing surface on its own, so neither gets an additional coating charge.

No -- both are purely additive line items. Surface Cost ($), the acrylic coating add-on, Striping cost, and Site Preparation ($) are all computed from Total Surface Area (sq ft) and Surface Type alone. Include Fencing? only affects Fencing + Gates ($) (chain link perimeter plus one gate per court), and Include Lighting? only affects Lighting Cost ($) (four LED poles per court) -- toggling either on or off leaves every other line in the cost breakdown completely unchanged.
