The badminton court is horizontally divided into two halves by the centre line; vertically, it is divided into the front court, middle court, and back court. The two outer side lines are the doubles court boundaries, while the two inner lines are the singles court boundaries. The distance between the doubles boundary lines and the singles boundary lines is 0.46 metres. The two lines parallel to the net, 1.98 metres from the net, are the front service lines. The line parallel to the end line, 0.76 metres from the end line, is the doubles back service line.
