Padel Tennis
We are currently running a waiting list for padel membership.
If you would like to be added to the waiting list, please click here and complete the Membership form.
Padel is a mix between tennis and squash and most commonly played in doubles. Courts are enclosed, surrounded by walls of glass and metal mesh and the scoring is the same as in a game of tennis. The rules are broadly the same as for tennis, although you serve underarm and the walls are used as part of the game with the ball allowed to bounce off them. Rackets are very different to normal tennis rackets - being stringless, much thicker and shorter and with holes.
Most new players can pick up the basics within half an hour and find it easy to build up a good level of skill to enjoy the game. Click here to see a short demo!
