This is ideal for those who enjoy the multi-game functionality of having both tennis and pickleball by utilizing the same court and net for both sports. The simplest way to convert an existing tennis court to also play pickleball is by painting pickleball lines that are centered on the tennis court. This allows an effortless transition between pickleball and tennis play. Keep in mind that there is a two-inch difference in regulation height between the nets for each.

The four-court tennis court conversion option is for those who wish to play many games of pickleball at the same time, and occasionally play a game of tennis. This layout is tighter on out-of-bounds space but can be ideal for pickleball tournaments.

Permanent Court Conversion

In order to permanently convert your tennis court into pickleball requires complete court resurfacing. This includes repairing the court surface and re-coating the surface with either a hard coat paint or a modular surface. 

To permanently convert your tennis court to a pickleball facility with maximum play, you’ll need to make preparations for 4 pickleball courts. This means you’ll have to install net posts and footers for the new courts while removing the existing tennis net posts, allowing for a permanent netting solution.

Converting an existing tennis court into pickleball courts also provides the opportunity to choose a new color scheme for your pickleball courts.
