Rules and construction points one by one
🏓
Pickleball Court Pickleball
Small venue, high turnover, suitable for high-profile projects in communities and commercial halls.
Suitable for assembled flooringIndoor/outdoor
6.10×13.41 m20×44 ft
7 ftDepth of non-volley zone
36/34 inNet post/central net height
30×60 ft+It is recommended to include buffering
- Singles and doubles use the same court, which is similar in size to the doubles badminton court.
- 7 ft on each side of the net is the non-volley area, commonly known as the kitchen area, and volleys cannot be made in the area.
- It is recommended that the newly built venue should leave enough end lines and sideline buffers, and the commercial hall should try to avoid sharing too narrow passages between the two venues.
Construction reminder: The pickleball ball speed is not high but the lateral movement is frequent. The ground should be both anti-slip and smooth turning; if it is too rough, the feet will get stuck, and if it is too smooth and wet, it will easily fall.
🏀
Basketball full court Basketball
The most common hard sports field in schools, communities and sports parks.
Suitable for assembled flooringCampus priority GB 36246
28×15 mFIBA competition area
3.05 mHoop height
6.75 mFIBA three-point arc
2 m+External buffering is recommended
- The FIBA court is 28 m × 15 m; the NBA is 94 ft × 50 ft, with slightly different lines.
- The school compliance project focuses on GB 36246-2018 testing, bulging resistance, drainage and color fastness.
- For large outdoor venues, it is recommended to give priority to thermal expansion and contraction structures and seams, not just the unit price.
Recommendation: Choose ANK2F for large campus areas, choose ANK5 for community home games; for high-end 3x3/event experience, check out Quantum Overlay.
🏀
Basketball Half Court
Suitable for communities, school corners, rooftops and commercial complexes.
Suitable for assembled flooringCan be customized
15×14 mCommon halftime estimates
5.80 mFree throw line distance caliber
6.75 mThree-point arc caliber
1.5 m+End line buffer
- Half-court is not just about cutting the entire court in half. The free throw line, restricted area, three-point arc and safe distance from the basket must be retained.
- Training grounds, children’s grounds and commercial experience grounds can be compressed according to space, but it must be made clear that they are not official competition grounds.
- The ground color can be divided into areas inside and outside the three-point line to improve the recognition of shooting training.
Common mistakes: The basket is too close to the wall, the end line buffer is insufficient, and the three-point arc is cut off, resulting in a poor actual combat experience.
3️⃣
FIBA 3x3 Halftime
Popular specifications for street basketball, school events and commercial activities.
Suitable for assembled flooringStrong sense of competition
15×11 mOfficial competition area
10 minRegular game time
21 pointsFirst come wins
12 sAttack time
- 3x3 uses a basket, the three-point line becomes a 2-point line in the rules, and 1 point is scored inside the arc.
- Every time the ball is transferred, the ball must be arced, the pace is fast, and it requires high ground grip and buffering.
- Official events need to comply with FIBA 3x3 equipment and venue requirements.
Recommendation: If you emphasize the visual and foot feel of the event, give priority to quantum stacking; for ordinary campus activities, you can choose ANK5/ANK2F.
🎾
Tennis Court Tennis
High requirements for line position, rebound and court buffering.
Training adaptationUse with caution in official competitions
23.77 mVenue length
10.97 mDoubles width
8.23 mSingles width
0.914 mCentral Network High
- Tennis courts under ITF rules are 78 ft long; separate sidelines are used for singles and doubles.
- The service area, running space outside the baseline and lateral cushioning have a great impact on the experience.
- Professional matches typically use acrylic, clay, grass or approved tennis surfaces.
Assembled flooring can be used for campus training, multi-purpose halls and experience courts; if there is a formal tennis event, the type of surface accepted by the event should be confirmed first.
🏸
Badminton Court Badminton
Small size, but high requirements for headroom, lighting and foot feel.
Indoor adaptationLow impact
13.40 mFull length
6.10 mDoubles wide
5.18 msingles wide
1.55 mNet height at net posts
- Badminton line width is usually 40 mm, and the singles sideline is narrower than the doubles sideline.
- High and long shots in the backcourt require sufficient clearance, and the experience of low-ceiling venues will be significantly reduced.
- Multi-functional venues often share the same venue with basketball and volleyball, and different colors need to be used to distinguish the lines.
It is recommended to use a model that is relatively flexible and has better shock absorption; for indoor venues, you should also pay attention to noise and the flatness of the bottom layer.
🏐
Volleyball court Volleyball
Common in schools and communities, with many jumps and requirements for shock absorption.
Training adaptationClearance required
18×9 mCompetition area
3 mOffensive Line
2.43 mMen's Tennis High
2.24 mWomen's Tennis High School
- The volleyball court is divided into two 9×9 m halves by the center line, and the front row offensive line is 3 m away from the center line.
- Official competitions require free zones and overhead clearance, and school training can be adjusted according to conditions.
- Avoid excessively hard ground. Frequent takeoffs and landings will amplify the impact on the knees and ankles.
If basketball and volleyball are shared on the same court, the main project must be determined first; the embedment of the volleyball net posts and the floor closing must be designed in advance.
⚽
Futsal
Common both indoors and outdoors, boundaries and penalty areas are different from 11-a-side.
Choose carefully according to the surface layerCommon in commercial halls
40×20 mCommonly used internationally
25-42 mCommon length ranges
16-25 mCommon width ranges
3×2 mCommon specifications of goals
- The five-a-side system has no offside, flexible substitutions, fast ball speed, and high requirements for ground friction and wear resistance.
- Sideline balls are usually kicked in with the feet, and safe passages should be left around the field.
- Commercial entertainment and school training can be compressed according to space, and official competitions are confirmed according to FIFA/Futsal rules.
High-frequency football friction causes greater wear and tear on the assembled floor. Formal five-a-side football, professional indoor football surface or artificial grass solutions are given priority.
⚽
Football field Football
Large venue projects, with a wide range of sizes, the lawn system is the core.
It is not recommended to assemble floorsLawn system
100-110 mInternational Competition Length
64-75 mInternational Competition Width
7.32×2.44 m11-a-side goal
9.15 mMiddle circle radius
- Football has penalty areas, penalty spots, center circles, corner kick areas and offside rules. Line marking and lawn maintenance are equally important.
- Schools can use 5/7/8-a-side narrow pitches, but the rules and goal specifications should be clearly stated.
- Natural grass and artificial grass fields also need to consider drainage, foundation, filling and maintenance.
The assembled sports floor is not suitable for standard football fields; it can be used for peripheral passages, bleacher activity areas and multi-functional hard training areas.
🏉
Rugby Stadium
There are high requirements for field length, end zone and safety buffer.
It is not recommended to assemble floorsLawn/Compliant Artificial Grass
≤100 mCompetition area length
≤70 mCompetition area width
6-22 mCommon ranges of the end zone
2.5 m+External buffering is recommended
- Rugby allows collisions, downs and scrimmages, and the safety of the surface takes precedence over the beauty of the lines.
- The touch line, goal line, 22 m line, half-field line and end zone must be clear.
- International or official competitions are subject to World Rugby requirements for size and finish.
Unless it is a non-contact children's training or activity area, it is not recommended to use hard assembled sports floors to host rugby matches.
🏏

3.05 mCommon pitching area widths
Outfield BoundaryBy event/venue
WicketsCore tags
- The centerpiece of cricket is the 22-yard pitch, with wickets and batting area markers at either end.
- The official outfield is usually grass, and the boundary distance varies with the level of competition and venue conditions.
- School or commercial training can be used as a pitching net and practice area instead of a complete outfield.
Modular flooring can be used as an auxiliary training walkway or experience area. It is not recommended to replace the formal cricket pitching area and outfield lawn.

Gateball
Low intensity activities, community parks and community activity programs are common.
High adaptabilityLow intensity
15×20 mCommon standards
3 doorsPassing order
1 barEnd post
30 minCommon game lengths
- Goalball has a slower pace, but has high requirements for flatness, low glare and anti-slip.
- Marking lines and door positions should be clear, and height differences and hard edges should be avoided in low-intensity activity areas.
- Community activity scenes should give priority to anti-slip, buffering and barrier-free access.
Interstellar or SVS1 北极星 type anti-slip/buffer solutions are recommended, and surrounding passages should avoid water accumulation after rain.
⭐
Huamengxing Mini Basketball/Children’s Basketball
In children’s enlightenment centers for young children, the rules should be narrowed down according to age.
Suitable for assembled flooringChild friendly
Small venueCustomized by age
Low basketAdjustable height
Small ball numberYoung age adaptation
Soft anti-slipKey performance
- It is not recommended to copy adult courts for children’s basketball. The court, basket height, ball number, and game length must all be reduced.
- Color blocks can be used to guide the stance, dribbling routes and shooting areas in the enlightenment field.
- Kindergartens or training institutions should focus on environmental protection, anti-slip, impact absorption and corner safety.
It is recommended to use ANK4, SVS1 or customized parquet solutions; the point is not to be "like an adult playground", but to make children willing to run, dare to fall, and understand the rules.
