How do I set up a badminton court on my terrace?

Setting up a badminton court on your terrace is a great way to enjoy the game with friends and family. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to do it:

  1. Measure the space: Make sure the terrace has enough space for a full-sized court, which measures 44 feet long by 20 feet wide.
  2. Set up the net: The net should be 5 feet high at the center and 5 feet 1 inch high at the posts. You can use a portable net or install a permanent one.
  3. Mark the boundaries: Use chalk or tape to mark the boundaries of the court, including the singles and doubles lines.
  4. Set up the lighting: If you plan to play at night, you will need to set up lighting. Floodlights or string lights will work well.
  5. Add some seating: Place some chairs or benches around the court for spectators or players to rest.

Tips:

  • Make sure the surface of the terrace is smooth and level.
  • Use a high-quality net and poles to ensure stability.
  • Consider using a rubber mat or carpet under the court to provide cushioning and reduce noise.
  • Allow for at least 2 feet of clearance around the court for safety.
  • Store the equipment in a safe and dry place when not in use.

  • What is the best type of net for a terrace badminton court? A portable net with a strong frame and weather-resistant materials is recommended.

  • How do I maintain the court? Regularly sweep or vacuum the court and check the net and poles for any damage.
