Questions people actually ask.

One off-peak court booking of 60 minutes, included in your monthly fee. Off-peak means weekdays before 5pm. You can book as much as you like beyond your included sessions — those are charged at the standard rate, less your tier's discount on your own share of the court.

No. Reserving is free, and nothing's charged later just to keep your place either.

Not for Founding members. No joining fee, no deposit and no signing-on cost — the monthly price is the whole price. Whether standard memberships carry one later is not decided.

Yes. You choose which one you're on when we open, not now.

It ends. It only holds for as long as your membership runs without a break.

Once, to one named person, and only before we open.

Any time, by replying to any email that reaches you.

When you reserve, you're given your own link. If a friend reserves on it, the first session is on us for both of you. The link carries a six-character code generated at random and from nothing about you, so forwarding it into a group chat doesn't send your name or email anywhere with it.

We don't know yet, and that is the honest answer rather than a coy one. No lease is signed. The postcodes people give when they reserve are a real input into the decision — a cluster of Founding members in one part of London is the strongest argument there is for putting the building there.

We don't have a building yet — that's exactly what the postcodes people give us help decide. Reserving fixes a rate, not a location. If it turns out too far once there's an address, you're free to walk away with a reply to any email. Nothing's owed either way.

No date yet — that depends on a site we haven't secured. We'll tell you first, not last.

Five, indoors. That number is what the club is being designed around — enough to run a league night without closing the place to everyone else, and few enough to stay a club rather than a leisure centre.

Yes, and it is half the point rather than an amenity. A long bar with the courts visible through glass, and food worth staying for. Most padel in Britain is a court and a car park; the room you sit in afterwards is the thing we are actually trying to get right.

Yes — beginner sessions and individual coaching are both planned. Padel is unusually easy to start, so the first session is less about technique than about where to stand, and that is exactly what a good coach fixes in an hour.

Yes, and more easily than any other racket sport. The serve is underarm by rule, so nobody can serve past you, and the walls keep the ball alive long after it would have been dead. Most people have real rallies inside their first hour.

No. Rackets will be available to borrow, and there is no reason to buy one until you know you're staying. Bring trainers; that's it.

Their first visit's on the house. After that, a flat fee per visit, up to twice a month.

What's needed to hold your place and reach you about it: your name, email, postcode, and phone if you leave one. With it we keep the tier you picked, the moment you signed and the wording you agreed to, your own referral link, and — if a friend's link brought you here — theirs. We also record how you reached the site: the page you came from, any campaign tag on the link, and when you arrived.

It runs the Founding reservation, honours the referral offer, and tells us where a club would actually serve people best. Nothing is sold on or shared for advertising, and you can ask us to delete all of it at any time by replying to any email.
