Standard areas for practicing basketball courts
There are places on the court that are generically designated for both full and half courts, where basketball players play.
On a half basketball court, a critical line is often a 12-foot-wide region.
For basketball courts used by amateurs and professionals alike, the foul line measures the same. The distance between the foul line and the front of the backboard is exactly 15 feet.
Free throw lines are 12 feet long and precisely 15 feet from the center of the basketball hoop.
Dimensions of the basketball half-court
The measurements of a half basketball court are precisely half of those of an outdoor full-size basketball court.
Sport Surfaces has shown that in situations where a traditional full-size court would not be feasible, this is the ideal choice for locations with limited space or land. A half-court’s measurements are 30 feet long by 50 feet broad. Usually, this outdoor basketball court size takes care of all your cramped space problems. For this reason, before creating a basketball court in your backyard, you must measure its length.
Generally speaking, the price of a half-basketball court ranges from $8,000 to $38,000 or more, depending on your requirements. Our sales representatives will be pleased to address any of your queries or issues and provide you with a free estimate court consultation.
