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.

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.
