About The Padel Directory

The Padel Directory acts as a central connector, bringing players, coaches, clubs and businesses together into one hub. As a friendly and impartial network, we’re here to build opportunities across the UK padel industry, giving everyone a chance to connect, learn and belong.

With a sport growing as quickly as padel, we know how important it is to keep everyone in the loop. We’re building the community layer that makes this possible.

Coaches can help players, whilst boosting credibility and professional development.

Clubs can support players, recruit coaches, and access sponsorship, supplier and commercial opportunities.

Businesses can connect with players, coaches and clubs to showcase their products and share their expertise.

Our story so far

2024

TPD started in 2024, driven by our own struggle in finding local courts. With different clubs across different booking platforms, we wanted an easier way for players to get quick, reliable information.

2025

Our Court Finder allowed us to connect clubs to players, now showcasing over 2000 courts in the UK. And when we saw how quick the clubs were growing, we wanted to support those growing alongside them. For coaches, brands and businesses, we expanded into a marketplace that gave them the opportunity to collaborate, share their learnings, and reach wider audiences.

2026

Once everyone was digitally connected, we realised it was time to bring them together in person. The inaugural UK Padel Convention was a sold-out event, hosting over 800 people across the industry (with 350+ people on the waiting list!). From there, we’ve expanded into player events, with our PadelFest roadshow tour hitting Bristol this September.

2027 -

We grow as padel does, always evolving to meet the needs of players, coaches, clubs and businesses. Through TPD, we want to champion padel as the sport for collaboration, connection, and – most importantly – community.
