London

Padel Playa's first club is being built in London. The courts are made in Spain.

The plan is a club that adds to its host venue rather than sitting beside it: more people playing, more reasons to stay, and somewhere worth being a member of for years.

Coaching runs from the first intro session through the academy to club competitions, and the social calendar runs alongside it.

Where the game comes from

A Spanish game,
on a British club’s doorstep.

A padel racket meeting the ball, in black and white.

A short history of padel

Invented in a Mexican garden in 1969, on a court built to fit the space available: ten metres by twenty, walled in, with the walls in play.

A player walking back to the baseline on a green-walled court.

The Spanish connection

It crossed to Marbella in 1974 and never left. Padel is now the second most played sport in Spain, and the game's centre of gravity has stayed there ever since.

Courts from Spain

Ours are made where the game was refined: glass at the back, mesh above, and a surface that gives the same bounce every time.

What to expect

What to expect in London.

A club built around coaching and good company, from the first session you ever play to the one you are training for.

  1. An outdoor padel court in daylight: glass at the back, mesh above.

    Best in class facilities

    Courts made in Spain: three metres of glass at the back, mesh above, and a surface that gives you the same bounce every time.

  2. A player waiting to serve, seen through the mesh of the court wall.

    Industry leading coaches

    Coaching from people who play the game properly and can teach it, whether it is your first week or your fifth year.

  3. A player reaching up to serve, lit against a dark court.

    1 to 1 private coaching sessions

    One to one, on your own court, at your own pace. Grip, serve, the wall, the volley, in that order.

  4. A row of players sitting courtside with their rackets, waiting to go on.

    Team coaching sessions

    Four players, one coach, ninety minutes. Grouped by level rather than by whoever turned up, so every court is competitive.

  5. A player moving to the ball on a blue court.

    Padel taster days

    Ninety minutes, a coach and a racket, for people who have never held one. Nothing to bring but trainers.

  6. A player with the racket raised after winning the point.

    Padel Playa AcademyTrain to compete professionally

    A proper pathway in levelled blocks that run in terms, from your first session to your first tournament.

Good to know

Before your
first game.

Do I need to be a member to play?

No. When we open, anyone will be able to book a court through our booking app. Membership will be available too, and we will share exactly what it includes before opening.

I have never picked up a racket. Can I still come?

Absolutely. A taster day is a good place to start: a coach, a racket and ninety minutes to get to know the game. No experience needed.

How far ahead will I be able to book?

We will confirm the booking window when we announce our booking partner. Join the waiting list to hear when everything is ready.

Can I bring guests?

Yes. Padel is doubles, so a court is four people, and they do not all need to be members. We will share the details of guest bookings before opening.

How long is a session?

Ninety minutes. Time to warm up, find your rhythm and play a proper game without watching the clock.

When do you open?

The opening date has not been announced yet. Put your name on the waiting list and we will be in touch when the courts are ready.

Where are you?

London. We will share the full address, parking and travel details with the club’s opening.
