Padel People will be exhibiting at the Public Spaces Expo 2025 bringing the world’s fastest-growing sport to communities across the UK.
Padel People is one of the UK’s most forward-thinking padel operators, will be exhibiting for the first time at the Public Spaces Expo 2025 at ExCeL London (7–8 October, Stand P20).
With padel now recognised as the world’s fastest-growing sport, Padel People are on a mission to make the game accessible to communities nationwide by working with landlords, local authorities, developers and landscape architects to turn underutilised outdoor spaces into thriving hubs of health, activity and social connection.
A Win-Win for Landlords and Local Authorities
Padel People’s model requires no financial outlay from landlords. Instead, the company funds the installation of high-quality padel courts and shares 10–15% of the generated revenue with partners. This joint venture approach offers a secure minimum 10-year lease and a proven long-term revenue stream from spaces as small as 3,000 square ft per court.
Growing Demand, Growing Opportunity
- Padel is a low-impact, accessible sport that suits all ages and fitness levels.
- It offers proven health benefits including improving cardiovascular fitness, co-ordination and strength, whilst supporting mental wellbeing.
- As a social game played in doubles, it naturally fosters community connection.
- Padel People provide coaching, lessons, pay-and-play court bookings and engaging community programmes to ensure padel sites thrive.
