Construction costs vary significantly depending on whether you build an indoor or outdoor facility. Indoor halls in Indonesia run considerably higher — structural build, ventilation, and lighting drive the cost. Outdoor courts are cheaper to construct but limit your operating season and revenue potential. The number of courts is the single biggest lever on total investment: each additional court lowers the per-court cost, but increases your total capital at risk.

Revenue depends on three factors: court rental pricing, occupancy rates, and ancillary income (coaching, retail, food & beverage). Utilisation swings sharply by time of day and season — evenings and weekends tend to run at or near capacity, while weekday mornings and afternoons have idle courts.
