The sport that hooks you
after five minutes.
Padel is a mix of tennis and squash – easy to learn, instantly fun and perfect for beginners. Here's how it's played and why people love it with us.
Smaller court, glass walls, longer rallies.
It's usually played in doubles on a court about a third the size of a tennis court. The glass walls are part of the game – the ball can be played off them, similar to squash. That keeps the ball in play longer, and you need less power than in tennis.
- Underarm serve – an easy start, no long practice
- Scoring like tennis (15, 30, 40, game)
- The walls are in play – that's the appeal
- Bring your own rackets & balls or rent them

in a minute
The court
Around 10 × 20 metres, enclosed by glass and mesh. Small enough that all four players are always in the game.
The serve
Played underarm – after one bounce on the ground. No hard serves, no frustration at the start.
The walls
After bouncing on the ground, the ball can be played off the walls. That lengthens the rallies.
Doubles or 1-on-1
Usually doubles with four – but with us also 1-on-1 on your own single court.
Why padel in particular
is so addictive
Still have questions about getting started?
Do I need prior experience?
No. Padel is popular precisely because beginners can join in right away. If you'd like to start with no experience at all, our beginner lessons are the best place to begin.
Do I have to bring rackets and balls?
You can bring your own – or rent rackets and balls from us for a small fee. Otherwise you just need sportswear and clean indoor shoes.
How many people do you need?
Classically you play doubles, so four. No playing partners? You'll find some in our community – and on the single court you can play just two, 1-on-1.
Is padel exhausting?
As exhausting as you make it. The rallies are longer and more about technique than sheer power – ideal for a relaxed game with friends as well as a sweaty match.
