Insights on padel technology, equipment, court guides, and the growing padel industry.
Orange County had 3.2 million residents and no padel at all. The Tennis & Pickleball Club at Newport Beach has changed that with a single court, running as a three-month trial. Here is what it costs, how to book it as a non-member, and where to play if it is full.
Coral Oaks Tennis Club is adding four regulation padel courts and a lounge in Pinecrest — the first padel inside the village limits. The club is private, and it has not published an opening date. Here is what is being built, and where to play near Pinecrest in the meantime.
Horseshoe Bay Resort on Lake LBJ has broken ground on a $10 million racquet sports expansion adding four dedicated padel courts and a 6,690 sq ft Racquet Sports Clubhouse, targeted for summer 2027. It would be the first padel in the Texas Hill Country proper — though the resort's own website still does not mention the sport.
Hallandale Beach's second padel venue is open, and almost nobody can book it. Shell Bay Racquet Club keeps two outdoor courts inside a members-only, 150-acre private community off Diplomat Parkway. Here is exactly who can play, and the commercial clubs minutes away that anyone can.
Patrick Mouratoglou's first Midwest padel club was due to soft-open in August 2026. It has not opened, and the widely reported eight-court figure is wrong. Here is what the club's own sites say today, plus where to play padel near Indianapolis right now.
Wynwood Arena runs five glass-walled padel courts — three covered, two open-air — every day from 7 AM to 1 AM, with a bar, an arcade and three soccer fields on the same block. Here is what it costs, how to book it, and why it keeps getting confused with Wynwood Padel Club a mile away.
Redbrick LMD and Tennis Central have announced Capital City Padel Club: three lit outdoor courts at 633 Howard Road SE, opening Spring 2027. It would be DC's first purpose-built padel club, though not necessarily the District's first bookable court. Here is what is planned and where the race to open stands.
Oakland Padel is building two lighted outdoor courts on a fenced lot at Embarcadero Cove, priced at $75 per court per hour with no membership and 24/7 access by reservation. Courts are expected on 11 November 2026, with a soft opening targeted for mid-November. It is the first club on the East Bay side of the water in our directory.
Padel N9NE is building a second San Diego club: four courts at 222 North City Drive in San Marcos, next to CSU San Marcos, with the club targeting November 2026. It doubles the adidas flagship brand to twelve courts and pushes padel inland in North County. The founding-member pre-sale closes October 25.
The landmark Palm Beach resort has two dedicated padel courts inside its rebuilt 16-court racquet complex. The access rule is narrower than a public club but wider than a membership: registered hotel guests and club members. Here is what a session costs, and where to play in Palm Beach County if you are not staying there.
Pop's Padel opened October 1, 2026 in Freeport, converting the former Long Island Sports Complex into five panoramic padel courts. Four are doubles courts; the fifth is a dedicated singles court, which almost no US club builds. It is Nassau County's largest padel club and the first on the South Shore that anyone can book.
El Paso quietly became a six-club, 28-court padel city — seventh in the US by court count, ahead of San Diego and Orlando. Phantom Padel has been open on Doniphan Drive since January with almost no publicity, and a 10-court build is under construction down the valley in Socorro.
