The rectangular playing fields for the racket sport of badminton are called badminton courts. Courts are often marked for both singles and doubles games, with boundary widths differing between the two match types. Courts are divided in half by a center badminton net. Badminton courts should include safe flooring options, such as wood, synthetic materials, and rubber, for use during play. The surface of a badminton court is often made of synthetic mats and is typically laid out on a wooden floor.
