The International Tennis Federation (ITF) specify the following dimensions for a tennis court: Length: 23.77 meters (78 feet) Width for singles: 8.23 meters (27 feet) Width for doubles: 10.97 meters (36 feet)128 The net height should be: 0.914 meters (3 feet) at the center 1.07 meters (3.5 feet) at the posts. These measurements are universal and more precise than those used in sports like football or rugby.
The net of a tennis court is typically made of high-strength polyethylene or polyester, ensuring durability and resistance to outdoor conditions. The supporting posts are constructed from galvanized steel or aluminum, designed to withstand tension and maintain structural integrity over time. Installation involves securing the net to the posts with a double-loop cord system, ensuring an even and secure attachment. Tensioning is achieved using a center strap and an adjustable winding mechanism, keeping the net at the regulation height of 1.07 meters (3 feet 6 inches) at the posts and 0.914 meters (3 feet) at the center. The mesh openings must not exceed 4 centimeters (1.57 inches) to prevent balls from passing through, and the net itself typically has a gauge thickness ranging from 3 to 5 millimeters for optimal performance and longevity.
Tennis nets are typically made of braided polyethylene, which provides resistance to weather conditions. The net features a thick white band at the top and is usually black in color. High-quality nets often have double mesh at the top six rows for added durability. Some nets include side pockets for fiberglass dowels to maintain tension and vinyl-coated steel cables for support.
