Pickleball Court Planning Handbook
This web handbook brings Apollo's verified pickleball planning resources into one sequence—from court footprint and subfloor through surface choice, supporting systems and final project brief.
Planning guidance — final supplied configuration remains project-specific.
2. Inspect the base
Use the subfloor-preparation guidance to identify cracks, levels, contamination, moisture and drainage before flooring selection.
3. Select permanent, modular or roll-out pathway
Compare permanence, drainage, repair, storage, seams and playing feel against the venue's operating model.
4. Coordinate venue systems
Plan nets, dividers, fencing, lighting, cameras, player circulation and future court capacity together.
