Pickleball court lines and layout A pickleball court is 20 feet wide x 44 feet long (22 feet long on either side of the net). The non-volley zone (NVZ, or the kitchen) is seven feet long (from the net to the top of the kitchen line) on either side of the net and 20 feet wide — from sideline to sideline.
Measure 44ft (13.41m) from the pickleball's baseline to mark out the full length of the court and the second baseline. Measure 22ft (6.71m) from the pickleball's baseline to mark the position of the pickleball net. Mark out the pickleball courts' sidelines 10ft (3.05m) either side of the tennis court's centreline.
So, is the line in or out in pickleball? ing to the rules, any ball that touches any part of a line is considered “in.” This applies to all lines, including the baseline, sideline, and centerline. However, when serving, a ball that lands on the kitchen line is “out” because the serve cannot land in the kitchen.
The 10-second rule under USA Pickleball says that, once the score has been called by the server, the server has 10 seconds to serve the ball. This is true even if the receiving team is not yet in the correct position. However, the server should wait until the receiving team is ready to receive the ball.
Standard pickleball lines are 2 inches wide.
Marking a Full Pickleball Court. Take a 3rd tape measurer and extend it across the court diagonally 48.3 feet to get your measurements square and straight. Mark the sidelines 44 feet long, and snap a chalk line. Measure 2 inches INSIDE and snap a 2nd chalk line. Tape along both lines.
Line Calls A ball contacting any line, except the non-volley zone line on a serve, is considered “in.” A serve contacting the non-volley zone line is short and a fault.

Lines Are “In”: As we've covered, if any part of the ball touches a line, it's “in.” This means players need to watch closely, especially on shots near the baseline or sideline. Non-Volley Zone (or Kitchen): When volleying, the kitchen line plays an important role.
