Adult padel and coaching for everyone

Male padel player

Padel is one of the fastest-growing sports in the world. Play all year round on our three floodlit courts.

Padel is so easy to learn, and it’s great fun. Even with limited racket skills, you can quickly engage in dynamic and fun rallies using the court’s surroundings.

Because it’s always played as doubles, it’s a really social activity and ideal for families and friends. Padel can be played in groups of mixed ages and abilities, as it is not power dominant.

We offer pay and play sessions and coaching courses available to everyone. Or you can join East Glos and play padel, tennis, squash and racketball for one single subscription.
