Anyone for Padel Tennis?
Padel tennis is the fastest-growing sport globally with over 25 million players in 90+ countries and it is really taking off in the UK. Padel courts are commonplace in Europe and are now appearing at special centres or local tennis clubs.
With its blend of tennis, squash, and badminton, padel is a fun and exciting game that can be played by people of all ages and skill levels. Padel is fun, easy to learn and extremely sociable. Played on an enclosed court about a third the size of a tennis court, groups of mixed ages and abilities can play together. It’s now the second most popular sport in Spain with 6 million players; beating tennis and second only to football
If you fancy trying your hand then head to and book a court. There are courts locally in Holmer Green, Chesham, Stoke Poges and Slough.
