Racquetball Court Layout
A racquetball
court is always rectangular, it is 40 ft long, 20 ft wide, and 20 ft high.
The court is marked with several red lines. These lines define the service
and reception areas. The solid red line running the court's width and
parallel to the front and back walls is called the short line. It is 20
ft from the back and front walls. Parallel to the short line is the service
line just 15 ft from the front wall, or 5 ft in front of the short line.
Between these two lines is the service zone. The 2 lines on either side
of the service zone parallel to the side walls define the doubles box,
where the partner stands during doubles while not serving. The recieving
line is the dashed red line parallel to the short line. An area the server
cannot enter until the ball has passed.
