Badminton Court Diagram

Free printable badminton court diagrams drawn to scale — a clean blank in landscape or portrait, a labeled sheet that shows which lines count for singles and which for doubles, and a service-courts sheet for teaching the serve. Or build a custom one with your club logo and your own labels.

Blank · print and mark up

The court, nothing else.

Every line of the 13.4 × 6.1 m court and no text. Pick the orientation that fits your page.

Blank Court — Portrait

Upright, net across the middle — the PE-handout orientation. Fits a clipboard or a worksheet.
Labeled · the two things people ask

Which lines count, and where to serve.

Badminton confuses beginners in exactly two places. Each gets a sheet.

Singles vs Doubles Lines — Labeled

The question every beginner asks, answered on one sheet: the side alleys are shaded for doubles, the back alleys for the singles serve, and the legend says why.

Why two labeled sheets and not one

A badminton court has more lines than any court its size, and they answer two different questions. The sidelines and back alleys are about the game — singles or doubles. The short service line, the centre line and the long service line are about the serve — where you stand and where it has to land. Put both on one page and you get the diagram everyone squints at; split them and each is obvious.

The builder follows the same idea: its labels are the four service courts and the alleys, named the way a coach names them — and renameable, so “right service court” can become a student’s name for the day.

Is there a labeled badminton court diagram?
Two. The singles-vs-doubles sheet shades the side alleys and back alleys so you can see at a glance which lines count in each game, and the service-courts sheet names all four service courts and draws the diagonal the serve must cross. Both print on letter paper and both are free.
Can I put my club's logo on the diagram and label it myself?
Yes. Build Custom takes a PNG, JPG or SVG logo, places it top-right or bottom-left of the page and lets you size it. Turn on the area labels and each service court and alley gets a checkbox and a text field — type 'serve here', a player's name or a drill target and it prints in that area.
Which diagram should a PE teacher use?
The portrait blank as the worksheet — students label the lines themselves — with the singles-vs-doubles sheet as the answer key. For the serving lesson, the service-courts sheet is the handout: it carries the even-right, odd-left rule and the 1.15 m serve height on the page.
Is the diagram to scale, and in which units?
Drawn to scale from the BWF Laws: 13.4 × 6.1 m with the singles lines 0.46 m in, the short service line 1.98 m from the net and the doubles long service line 0.76 m inside the back boundary. The blanks carry no numbers on purpose; the dimensions sheets print every measurement in metres and feet.
Does the diagram show a badminton court inside a basketball court?
Not as a drawing — but the answer is simple. A 44 × 20 ft badminton court fits across the 50-ft width of a basketball floor, and a high-school gym usually marks three of them along its 84-ft length. Print three landscape blanks and lay them side by side if you need the layout on paper.
