Padel is one of the world’s fastest-growing sports but in Ireland, until now, it’s been a city game. Most facilities have been concentrated in urban centres, leaving the rest of the country watching from the sidelines. Premium pricing. Members-only feel. Hard to find, and harder to try.
That is the problem we set out to fix. Not by building a different kind of court, the courts are the same world-class facilities you would find anywhere but by building them somewhere different, in partnership with people who already know their towns.
Every Padel 100 club offers Free Hours on weekday mornings and every club is run with one ambition: that padel becomes part of community life in the town we are in, not separate from it.
Every Padel 100 club is developed in partnership with organisations already part of local life. Rather than starting from scratch, we work with trusted local partners to bring world-class padel to places people already know and use. We provide the courts and the operational expertise; our partners provide the location and the local connection. The result is a faster, more sustainable model that makes padel part of the community from day one.
Every Padel 100 club offers Free Hours from 11am to 3pm, Monday to Friday. During these hours, schools can use the courts for PE, community groups can get active, and local residents can discover the sport without cost being a barrier. By generating revenue during peak evening and weekend periods, we build accessibility right into the model. The result is a club that serves the whole community — not just those who can afford to play.
Each club is run with local ownership and feel. Behind it is a national platform, Playtomic booking, NXPadel court technology, brand and operational support, so every club has the backing of a serious national operation.
