Standard padel court length, 20 meters end-to-end.
Definition
A padel court measures exactly 20 meters from baseline to baseline, the regulation length for all official play. This dimension is set by the FIP (International Padel Federation) and creates the foundation for all court geometry. The 20-meter length determines serve positioning, wall heights, and the angles of play. All major tournaments, club facilities, and equipment manufacturers reference this standard. Courts must maintain this precise measurement to be approved for sanctioned competition. The 20-meter specification balances player movement, rally control, and spectator sight lines in both indoor and outdoor settings.
Origin: Established by the FIP in early padel rulebooks, derived from the Spanish precursor game Pala.
Essential reference for court construction, serve positioning, and understanding rally boundaries.
