2.3 COURT CONFIGURATIONS<br />
Multi-purpose<br />
<strong>Sport</strong> Halls<br />
To determine the overall size of the multi-purpose sports hall the various court confi gurations, indicated<br />
in badminton court modules are as follows:<br />
2.3.1 Single Courts<br />
The minimum hall area for a single badminton court is 17.4 metre long, 9.1 metre wide <strong>and</strong> has a clear<br />
ceiling height of 7.6 metre.<br />
Apart from badminton it would be possible to house one table tennis table <strong>and</strong> two fencing piste. Halls<br />
of this particular size are thus not recommended since they have limited multi-purpose potential.<br />
2.3.2 Two-Court Halls<br />
The minimum size for a two-court sports hall is 18 metre long, 17 metre wide <strong>and</strong> has a clear ceiling<br />
height of 7.6 metre.<br />
Apart from the two badminton courts, it would be possible to house four table tennis tables, three<br />
trampolines, one judo fl oor, one gymnastics fl oor <strong>and</strong> three fencing piste.<br />
A careful assessment of the sports types has to be made before halls of this particular confi guration are<br />
recommended for construction.<br />
2.3.3 Three-Court Halls<br />
The minimum size for a three-court sports hall is 27 metre long, 18 metre wide <strong>and</strong> has a clear ceiling<br />
height of 8.0 metre.<br />
Apart from the three badminton courts, it would be possible to house fi ve table tennis tables, six<br />
trampolines, two judo fl oors, two gymnastics fl oors, three fencing pistes <strong>and</strong> one volleyball court.<br />
Due to the fact that a four court hall requires only a marginal increase in overall dimensions, it is<br />
recommended that, unless restrictive site conditions exist, a four court hall is constructed in lieu of a<br />
three court hall.<br />
2.3.4 Four-Court Halls<br />
The minimum size for a four-court sports hall is 33 metre long, 18 metre wide <strong>and</strong> has a clear ceiling<br />
height of 8.0 metre. The hall covers an overall area 594 square metre.<br />
In a four-court hall it would be possible to house the following courts:<br />
• Four badminton courts<br />
• One basketball court<br />
• Four cricket nets<br />
• Two gymnastic fl oors<br />
• One indoor hockey pitch<br />
• Two judo fl oors<br />
• Six trampolines<br />
• Four table tennis tables<br />
• One volleyball court<br />
