Club Padel Cincinnati: Ohio's First Outdoor Padel Club

Club Padel will sit on Church Street in Newtown, a small village folded into Cincinnati's Eastern Corridor just east of the city. The plan brings four regulation outdoor courts to a community that, until now, had to settle for a couple of shared courts at a tennis center. It's a purpose-built home for the fastest-growing racquet sport in the country, and it lands in a part of metro Cincinnati that's actively reinventing itself.

Address: 3804 Church St, Cincinnati, OH 45244 | Phone: (513) 600-2074

Courts: 4 | Type: Outdoor

The club is targeting a spring 2026 opening, with membership details, court reservations, and grand-opening plans expected to be announced in early 2026.

Inside the $15M Robert James Park Complex

Club Padel isn't a standalone court build — it's the racquet-sports anchor of Robert James Park, a roughly $15 million outdoor entertainment destination created by the team behind Robert James Distillery. The four-acre site blends a distillery, dining, a dog park, and open gathering space into a single weekend destination, with padel as the active centerpiece.

That mix is the point. Co-founder Bob Slattery has framed the courts as part of a "broader vision of activating the Eastern Corridor" — turning a stretch of Cincinnati's East Side into a place people drive to for a match, a meal, and a drink rather than just one of the three. For padel, which thrives on social, doubles-first play, sharing a footprint with food and drink is close to ideal.

4 Outdoor Courts, a Clubhouse, and Evening Play

The four courts are regulation outdoor padel courts with panoramic glass walls and premium turf, lit by LED fixtures for evening matches once the workday ends. A clubhouse rounds out the experience with locker rooms, lounge areas, and a pro shop, and court bookings are slated to run through a mobile app.

Programming is built for every level: leagues, clinics, private lessons, junior programs, tournaments, and open-play sessions. If you've never picked up a padel racket, that beginner-friendly slate matters — the glass-walled, doubles format is famously easy to start and hard to put down.

Ohio's Padel Map: Where Cincinnati Fits

Cincinnati got its first real taste of padel earlier in 2026, when the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason — host of the Cincinnati Open — added a pair of outdoor courts. Club Padel takes the next step: a facility built solely for the sport.

Zoom out, and Ohio's padel scene is filling in quickly:

Cleveland: Padel Square in Garfield Heights leads the state with six indoor courts, while Cleveland Premier Padel covers the west side from Avon Lake.
Columbus: NewGen Racquet Club in Lewis Center brings five indoor courts to the capital region.
Cincinnati: Lindner Family Tennis Center, and soon Club Padel.

It's all part of a broader regional surge. For the bigger picture, see our Midwest padel growth update, and if you're near the state line, our guide to playing padel in Indiana.
