Padel is one of the UK’s fastest-growing sports, and a game that has rapidly taken Manchester by storm.

Often described as a fast-paced yet accessible blend of tennis and squash, the game is predominantly played as doubles and owes much of its popularity to its social, inclusive atmosphere.

Curious to know what it’s all about? Take a look at some of the places you can book padel courts in Manchester below.

 

Manchester Padel Club | South Manchester

Located in Cheadle’s Heald Green, Manchester Padel Club boasts five state-of-the-art courts, including a covered centre court and two specialised training courts designed for all-weather play.

Pure Padel also operates a larger, indoor facility just on the edge of the city centre, conveniently located in Cheetham Hill, right by the Green Quarter.
