How Much Run-Off Does a Pickleball Court Need?

The marked pickleball court is not the full playing envelope. Players need room beyond the baselines and sidelines, and projects also need space for fencing, gates and circulation.

Planning guidance — final supplied configuration remains project-specific.
Pickleball court size and run-off diagram
01

Playing lines

The standard pickleball playing rectangle is 13.41 m long × 6.10 m wide.

02

Planning envelope

Apollo uses 18.3 m × 9.1 m as a strong overall planning area and also retains an 18 × 9 m compact concept drawing for early feasibility work.

03

Final clearance depends on the site

Walls, fencing, gates, adjacent courts, spectator movement and local requirements can increase the sensible overall area.
