Insights on padel technology, equipment, court guides, and the growing US padel industry.
Brevard County has its first padel club. Wakit Rakit Titusville has opened two lit padel courts inside the historic La Cita Country Club, which has dropped its members-only policy to become the town's public racquet-sports hub. Here is what is on site, what it costs, and how it changes the drive for Space Coast players.
Louisiana has exactly two padel courts, and both sit inside a Metairie bowling alley. New Orleans Padel Club is building four more at the corner of First and Tchoupitoulas — the state's first venue where padel is the main event. Here is what is planned, and why the opening date is still unconfirmed.
Montana has no padel court the public can book — but Bozeman Classic Pickleball Club is adding one indoor padel court to its planned new facility. The target date has moved to June 2027, and the scope is smaller than early reporting suggested. Here is what is confirmed.
Six padel projects across Miami-Dade are marked opening soon, adding 45 courts to the densest padel market in the country — about a 21% jump in county supply.

Michigan has exactly one padel club. Zmash Padel opened in Sterling Heights in January 2024, built by three former Detroit Red Wings and a Swedish pro, and it still has the state to itself. Here's what's inside — and why it quietly stopped being America's largest indoor facility without changing a thing.
Padel + Pickle in Olivette opened with six panoramic courts under 30-foot ceilings — the first padel courts in St. Louis and the first anywhere in Missouri. Here's what the 42,000-square-foot club is actually like, why it paired padel with eight pickleball courts, and how to book a court.
Louisiana has exactly one place to play padel, and it's inside a Metairie bowling and entertainment venue co-founded by Drew Brees. Two indoor courts, 28-foot ceilings, $30–$40 an hour. Here's what's actually there, how to book it, and why the Gulf Coast's padel map still has a hole in the middle.
Kentucky has exactly one padel club, and it sits on the banks of the Ohio River. pATL's Waterfront Park location brought three outdoor courts to Louisville in partnership with a pickleball venue, and it remains the only place to play in the state.
