Tennis Court Construction in India | ChampCourts

ChampCourts designs, manufactures and installs tennis courts across India, built to ITF standards in acrylic hard court, cushioned acrylic, or PP interlocking tiles, to the 78 x 36 ft (23.77 m x 10.97 m) doubles standard. Everything is done by one in-house team - from the site survey and base to the final line-marking, net and fencing - so a single accountable team owns the result from base to baseline.

What a ChampCourts tennis court includes

A tennis court is a civil-plus-surface project, not just a coat of paint. Every ChampCourts build covers the full scope:

  • Site survey and design. We assess the ground, levels and drainage, and set the court orientation and run-off before any quote.
  • Base preparation. A properly graded and cured concrete or asphalt base, laid to a slight fall for drainage - the single biggest factor in how long the surface lasts. A poorly cured base is the most common reason courts crack early.
  • The playing surface. Your chosen system: acrylic hard court, cushioned acrylic, or PP interlocking tiles, applied to spec. Acrylic systems are built up in multiple coats - a primer, resurfacer, colour coats and a textured finish that sets the ball pace.
  • Line-marking. Accurate ITF doubles and singles lines, baseline, service boxes and centre marks, in tournament-standard white.
  • Net, posts and equipment. Regulation net posts and a tournament-height net, set at the correct tension.
  • Fencing. Perimeter chain-link or mesh fencing to keep balls in and the court secure.
  • Lighting. Optional LED floodlighting laid out for even, glare-controlled evening play.

Surface options for tennis

ChampCourts builds tennis courts in three surfaces, so the recommendation fits your sport and budget rather than a single product we happen to stock:

  • Acrylic hard court - the most common all-purpose choice. A multi-layer acrylic system over a rigid base gives a consistent, ITF medium-pace bounce and a long service life.
  • Cushioned acrylic - the same acrylic finish with added shock-absorbing layers underneath, easier on joints for academies and players who are on court often.
  • PP interlocking tiles - modular polypropylene tiles for a faster, lower-cost recreational court that can be laid on a sound existing base.

For a permanent club or academy court, most buyers choose acrylic or cushioned acrylic over a concrete base because the bounce is more consistent and the surface lasts longer; PP tiles suit budgets, faster timelines, or sites where a full civil base is not practical. Not sure which fits? Our surface comparison guide sets the three options side by side on feel, durability and cost.

Tennis court dimensions and standards

A full tennis court for doubles is 78 ft long and 36 ft wide (23.77 m x 10.97 m); a singles court is the same length but 27 ft wide. The net is 3 ft 6 in high at the posts and 3 ft at the centre. These sizes follow the International Tennis Federation (ITF) rules of tennis, and we add the standard back and side run-off so the court plays correctly. For the full layout, including run-back, doubles alleys and net details, see our tennis court dimensions guide.

What drives the cost of a tennis court

Tennis court cost is driven by a few clear factors. The surface is the biggest lever - PP tiles are the most economical, acrylic hard court sits in the middle, and cushioned acrylic costs a little more for the added comfort layers. The base matters next: a new concrete or asphalt sub-base adds cost but protects the whole investment. Court size and run-off, perimeter fencing, and LED lighting for evening play each add to the total. Because of this, we quote line by line - surface, base, fencing and lighting separately - rather than as one round number.

Why choose ChampCourts for your tennis court

Judge any tennis court builder on the criteria a careful buyer would use, and here is how ChampCourts measures up:

  • In-house manufacture and installation. One accountable team from base to baseline - we do not sub-contract the laying.
  • Full surface range. Acrylic, cushioned acrylic and PP tiles, so the surface is matched to your use, not our stock.
  • Built to standards. ITF dimensions and surface specifications on every court.
  • A real project record. Courts delivered for homes, societies, schools, academies and corporates.
  • Transparent cost. Honest per-square-foot figures and a line-by-line quote.
  • Pan-India delivery. Design, manufacture and install across India from a Hyderabad base, with after-sales support.

Where ChampCourts builds tennis courts

ChampCourts is based in Hyderabad and builds tennis courts pan-India for private homes, gated societies and apartment complexes, schools and colleges, tennis academies, corporate campuses and resorts. Because the build is civil work plus a specialist surface, every project begins with an on-site survey - we check the ground, levels and access, confirm the right surface and orientation, and only then put a timeline and a line-by-line cost in writing. That way the quote reflects your actual site rather than a generic template.

Tennis court construction in India - FAQs

How much does it cost to build a tennis court in India?

Cost depends mainly on the surface and the base. As a 2026 guide, the playing surface runs from roughly Rs 105 per sq ft for PP interlocking tiles, around Rs 150 per sq ft for acrylic hard court, and about Rs 155 per sq ft for cushioned acrylic. On top of the surface you budget for civil base preparation, fencing, lighting, net and posts. Always ask for a line-by-line quote rather than a single lump sum, and confirm whether the base is included.

What is the best surface for a tennis court?

There is no single best surface - it depends on use and budget. Acrylic hard court is the most common all-purpose choice and matches the ITF medium-pace category most clubs prefer. Cushioned acrylic adds shock-absorbing layers that are easier on knees and ankles, which suits academies and frequent players. PP interlocking tiles are a quicker, lower-cost recreational option. Compare them side by side in our surface guide before you decide.

What are the dimensions of a tennis court?

A full tennis court for doubles is 78 ft long and 36 ft wide (23.77 m x 10.97 m). A singles court is the same length but 27 ft (8.23 m) wide. The net is 3 ft 6 in (1.07 m) high at the posts and 3 ft (0.914 m) at the centre. ChampCourts adds the standard run-back and side run-off around the lines so the playing area is comfortable and tournament-correct.

How long does it take to build a tennis court?

A typical project runs about three to six weeks once the site is ready, depending on the surface, the base condition and the weather. A fresh concrete or asphalt base needs proper curing time before the acrylic system is applied, while PP tiles can be laid on a sound existing base in a few days. We confirm a realistic timeline after the site survey.

Is ChampCourts a good tennis court builder?

ChampCourts manufactures and installs tennis courts in-house rather than sub-contracting the laying, offers the full surface range (acrylic, cushioned acrylic and PP tiles), builds to ITF dimensions and specifications, quotes transparent per-square-foot costs, and delivers pan-India with after-sales support such as resurfacing and line refresh. Judge any builder - including us - against those criteria.

Do you build tennis courts across India?

Yes. ChampCourts is based in Hyderabad and delivers tennis court design, manufacture and installation pan-India for homes, societies, schools, academies, corporates and resorts. Every project starts with a site survey so the quote and timeline reflect your actual ground conditions.
