Q: What is the cheapest way to make a basketball court?

• <div><p>The most affordable option to build a basketball court is asphalt. Asphalt costs <b>$7 to $15 per square foot</b>. This accessible and highly bouncy material will make your court perfect for a casual game or a serious play-off. You can also invest in a basketball DIY kit for additional padding. These kits cost around <b>$1,500</b> and come with pre-marked, easy-to-install flooring tiles for a halfcourt. For hoops and scoreboards, look through your local used sporting supplies store or talk to school districts to see if you can snatch any equipment that&rsquo;s being retired.</p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of building a pickleball court?

• <div><p>Pickleball is a much faster sport than tennis, which can increase your chance of injuries. Since most pickleball courts use hard surface materials like concrete or asphalt, you're more likely to get hurt more severely than if you were to use a tennis court with a softer surface. The harder surface and paddles can also make pickleball a noisier sport, which can bother neighbors. </p></div>

Q: Can you use a tennis court as a pickleball court?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use a tennis court as a pickleball court. You just need to draw pickleball lines on the tennis court to use it as a pickleball court. You'll also want to adjust the net or purchase an adjustable net for convenience and lower it by 2 inches at the center. You can even create two or four pickleball courts out of a single tennis court for larger sports events. The key is to divide the court down to the correct ratios using chalk, a washable marker, or tape. </p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of building a tennis court?

• <div><p>The biggest disadvantages of building a tennis court are the cost and the space if you lack enough square footage. Tennis courts cost double or triple the cost of pickleball courts, which can price out many homeowners looking for an at-home tennis court. You also need to consider the higher maintenance costs when it comes time to resurface or repair your tennis court. </p></div>
