- The pickleball nets are 6 m long and 1 m high (1 m high on the sidelines and 0.8 m high in the centre of the court).
- Pickleball net posts are typically made of 3mm polyethylene and should use half a kilo of vinyl headband (Note: GreenSet recommends fibreglass blocks for greater strength and longer life) Net posts are placed 6m off centre.

Pickleball court size
The official standard size pickleball court is 44 feet long from baseline and 20 feet wide from baseline to baseline.
A 7-foot non-volley zone extends on each side of the net. The non-volley zone line defines the area called the kitchen.

Backyard pickleball courts
If you have a space in the backyard of your house and you want to put it to good use, we dare to tell you that the solution is easier than you think. Installing a court with the modular flooring system that we distribute in GreenSet is the most practical, economical, easy to install and with additional advantages that we are going to tell you below.
1. Easy Maintenance
Simply clean the modular floor periodically with a broom, hose or leaf blower to keep the court intact for many years to come. In addition to simplifying maintenance, you save money by not having to pay someone to do it for you.
2. Reliable
Modular floors are designed with non-slip and shock-absorbing features. When running or jumping, the surface makes a slight side-to-side movement. This results in a significant reduction of injuries due to falls or damage to the joints and lower back of athletes.
3. Customised
Choose the colour you like, the sport or game you want – and if you can’t decide and want to play several, that’s what multi-sports courts are for. Moreover, if you have limited space, don’t worry, at GreenSet we can make almost anything possible.
