Existing Clubs & Facilities
Add padel to your existing club
A practical guide for tennis clubs, racquet facilities, country clubs, hotels, and private venues looking to add padel courts, create new revenue, and broaden their member offer.
Why existing clubs are adding padel
For many facilities, padel is not a standalone development project. It is an expansion decision: a way to improve space productivity, attract new users, add programming, and create a more modern racquet offer.
New revenue streams
Add court hire, coaching, social events, leagues, intro sessions, and potential new membership products.
Broader audience appeal
Padel can help attract a wider demographic, including newer racquet-sport participants and social players.
Better use of space
Existing clubs can explore whether underused areas, conversions, or adjacent land can support padel courts.
Where padel can fit into an existing facility
The right solution depends on your current layout, planning constraints, member profile, and operating model.
Tennis club expansion
Use spare land, underused hard-court space, or broader facility redevelopment to introduce 1 to 4 padel courts.
Country club upgrade
Add padel as a premium amenity alongside tennis, gym, pool, and hospitality facilities.
Hotel or resort amenity
Create a higher-value guest experience with bookable courts, coaching, and branded programming.
The 6 things to assess before adding padel
1. Space & layout
Assess whether your site can accommodate the court footprint, circulation, spectator space, and access requirements.
2. Planning & compliance
Review permissions, lighting considerations, noise sensitivity, and any board approvals needed.
3. Member and user demand
Understand whether padel will serve existing members, attract new users, or both, and how you will programme it.
4. Cost & ROI
Estimate project costs, likely pricing, expected utilisation, and how the addition supports wider club economics.
5. Supplier mix
Work out which suppliers you actually need: courts, installation, groundworks, finance, covers, lighting, or software.
6. Operations
Think through bookings, staffing, coaching, member access, events, and maintenance before you commit to the build.
