size of the court for lawn tennis, basketball volleyballi need measurement of the court?
Lawn Tennis Dimensions
The court is 78 feet (23.77 m) long, and its width is 27 feet (8.23 m) for singles matches and 36 feet (10.97 m) for doubles matches. Additional clear space around the court is required in order for players to reach overrun balls. A net is stretched across the full width of the court, parallel with the baselines, dividing it into two equal ends. The net is 3 feet 6 inches (1.07 m) high at the posts, and 3 feet (914 mm) high in the center.
Basketball Dimensions
The men’s ball’s circumference is about 30 inches (76 cm) and weighs about 1 lb 5 oz (600 g). The women’s ball’s circumference is about 29 inches (73 cm) and weighs about 1 lb 3 oz (540 g). A regulation basketball court in international games is 28 by 15 meters (approx. 92 by 49 ft) and in the NBA is 94 by 50 feet (29 by 15 m). Most courts are made of wood.
A cast-iron basket with net and backboard hang over each end of the court. At almost all levels of competition, the top of the rim is exactly 10 feet (3.05 m) above the court and 4 feet (1.2 m) inside the endline. While variation is possible in the dimensions of the court and backboard, it is considered important for the basket to be the correct height; a rim that is off by but a few inches can have an adverse effect on shooting.
Volleyball Dimensions
The game is played on volleyball courts 18 metres long and 9 metres wide, divided into two 9 x 9 metre “team courts” by a one-metre wide net placed such that its highest point is 2.43 metres above the ground in men’s competition, and 2.24 metres for women’s competition (these heights are varied for veterans and junior competitions). There is a line 3 metres from and parallel to the net in each team court termed the “attack line”. This “3 metre” line divides the court into “back row” and “front row” areas. These are in turn divided into 3 areas each: these are numbered as follows, starting from area “1″, which is the position of the serving player

How To Construct A Good Tennis Court
<!– @page { margin: 0.79in } P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } –>
Constructing a quality tennis court isn’t a long or even difficult process anymore. With highly experienced tennis court construction companies and modern inventions, you can have the perfect tennis court, designed to your needs in no time.
If you would like to get a tennis court in your backyard or in your office premises, here are a few things you must look into before construction.
Design and layout
The design and layout of the court is important. You must know how much space you have and how much you will need for a standard sized court. The stipulated area for a tennis court is 120 feet by 60 feet but 110 by 55 would also do nicely for most people and can save some money as well.
When you pick the spot for the court make sure that the shadow of tress or buildings do not envelop the court.
Court foundation
Although all tennis courts appeal to our eyes much the same when they are built, there is a lot that goes into, a good tennis court. The court’s foundation is of utmost importance as chances are, that the ground below the court can shift because of frost or drought. The deeper the base of the court the less likely it is to cause you problems. Experienced Tennis court builders lay the right foundations ensuring that the court is safe and stable.
Court surface
The top surface of the tennis court should meet your needs. Tennis court builders can adjust the court to make the game go faster or slower, or can even make the court offer more grip to players. All this depends on what you would like your court to do for you. You can get expert advice from your tennis court construction company, on how to decide on the best surface for your tennis court.
Value for money
The cheapest courts are not always the best. But having a well built court won’t cost you an arm and a leg either. Look for experienced tennis court construction companies and they will be able to give you their expert advice and build you a good tennis court at affordable prices. The right tennis court builders ensure that your court is durable and offer you your money’s worth.
Building a tennis court in your backyard is a very useful investment. You don’t have to go on long walks or hit the gym for your daily fitness. Just step outside and enjoy playing tennis with your family and friends.

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
