Part tennis, part squash, all social
Padel's played in doubles on an enclosed court, with the walls in play and an underarm serve. What that actually means: longer rallies, more laughs, and almost no standing around. It's the rare sport that's genuinely fun on day one and still interesting a hundred games in.
You don't need to be sporty. You don't need kit. You don't even need three mates — come on your own and we'll find you a game.
Proper courts, proper glass
Our padel court is dedicated and tournament-grade — good glass and a true bounce. One player who’s played all over the UK and Europe reckoned it was the best he’d been on. We’ll take it.

Frequently asked Questions
I've never played padel. Is that okay?
More than okay — padel's famously easy to enjoy on day one. Come to a session, book a coaching hour with Aaron, or just book a court and give it a go. Most people are having proper rallies within their first game.
Do I need a partner or a group of four?
Padel's played as doubles, so a game is four — but you don't need to bring three mates. Book with friends, join a session, or use the club WhatsApp and we'll match you with players at your level. Plenty of people come solo.
Do I need my own paddle?
No — rent one from £3, or a premium paddle for £5. The shop's there when you want your own.
Are there any padel socials?
Yes — we run padel socials regularly. You'll find the next one in the Programmes section of the app.
