How many padel courts are there in the UK? By our count, 868 venues now have padel courts, and between them they have more than 3,000 courts. That figure also covers England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

We get the figure by adding up every club in our UK court finder. Each one has been checked against its own website. In other words, it is a real count rather than an estimate. We also sweep the list every Monday, which means this page moves as new clubs open.

Why our number is higher than the LTA figure

In October 2026 the LTA, which runs padel in Britain, put the total at 2,445 courts at 682 venues. However, our total is higher, for three main reasons:

We include Northern Ireland. The LTA figure is for Britain, while Northern Ireland adds 26 venues to our list.
We list 25 venues that are being built or are about to open. Each one is clearly marked on its card.
We add new clubs every week, so our list can run ahead of figures that come out every few months.

Even so, both counts tell the same story. Padel is growing fast, and the LTA now says 1.5 million people play it in Britain.

Indoor, outdoor or covered

Padel in the UK is split almost evenly. For example, we count 318 venues with indoor courts and 316 with outdoor courts. Another 113 have covered courts, which keep the rain off but stay open at the sides, and 74 have a mix. As for the rest, the club does not say.

So if you want to play through the winter, use the Indoor filter at the top of each region page.

The biggest padel venues in the UK

Padel Bonito in Sheffield, with 14 indoor courts
Rocket Padel Bristol, with 14 indoor courts
Jaxx Padel in Swansea, with 9 indoor and 4 outdoor courts
