Join one of our coaching classes, designed to help players build confidence, refine technique, and progress through structured, high-quality coaching. Groups are limited to 4 players per session to ensure you receive quality coaching.
Although we have the coaching sessions open to all abilities and we cater to the players in the group, we do try and ensure players are of similar relative skill level to ensure maximum value for money.
A Padel Americano is a social, rotating tournament where you play doubles with different partners and opponents each short round, competing for individual points rather than team wins, making every point count towards your personal total to find one overall winner, perfect for competition in a fun and social environment. You play rounds to a set number of points (e.g., 16 or 32), and when a match ends, you get points for your score, then switch courts and partners for the next round, adding up all points at the end.
