Interesting analysis by the Beeb - with special reference to cost!

It will get cheaper as there are more places to play.

As of 6 months ago the pay back on a Padel court was 9 months. I know a local Tennis club to me put in 2 Padel courts and they generate 1.7 million a year. Mental

Definitely give it a go! Coming from a tennis and squash background gives you a massive head start on racket control and reading the wall bounces. Padel communities are usually super welcoming to solo players, and most clubs use apps like Playtomic or local WhatsApp groups to match people up by skill level, so you won't have any trouble finding games. aww aww
