8 months ago I posted TrustPadel from a hospital bed with a herniated disc. Here's an update on what your feedback built.

Some of you might remember the original post. [We built TrustPadel.com - UK's most detailed Padel directory](https://www.reddit.com/r/padel/comments/1lvcsz1/we_built_trustpadelcom_uks_most_detailed_padel/) >309 clubs. Mostly England. A bloke typing horizontally with a herniated back. He built it because he was tired of calling clubs to ask if they had sessions for kids with additional needs — and getting awkward silence every time. You didn't just upvote it. You sent DMs. You flagged missing clubs. You told us what actually mattered when choosing a court. A few of you offered to help verify venues. This community treated TrustPadel like it was **yours** to improve. Since that post, I had spinal surgery at the end of January. Nerve damage bad enough that recovery could take two years. I've been mostly bed-bound for nearly a year — but tomorrow, for the first time in what feels like an eternity, I'm taking my daughter out for her birthday. Wheelchair and all. I cannot wait. I was also diagnosed as AuDHD this year — *which, honestly, explains a lot about why I built a padel directory with ferret-tracking capabilities.* It's been a dark stretch. But having something to build — something that tens of thousands of people now actually use to find where to play — has been an anchor through all of it. The feedback and support from this community has meant more than I can really say. So before anything else: **thank you.** Genuinely. Anyway, now onto the fun things: **TrustPadel 2.0 is live!** [New TrustPadel homepage!](https://preview.redd.it/rl3a68afb9og1.png?width=3430&format=png&auto=webp&s=93020171a47a69ff3edcc346bd3e3ccbad914ec4) **The numbers first:** * 309 clubs → **1,009 clubs** * 1,019 courts → **3,533 courts** * 1 country → **11 countries** Still not scraped. Still manual research — clubs called, details verified, the weird stuff tracked. If a club has cold plunge baths, EV chargers, or (yes, still) ferrets on site, it's in there because we put it in there. And we're not stopping at 1,009. We're currently processing and manually checking nearly 10,000 new clubs from around the globe. When that lands, TrustPadel becomes the go-to for planning courts wherever you travel — not just at home. **What's new:** **Search rebuilt from the ground up** Running on Typesense — the same infrastructure Spotify and Airbnb use. Results in under 15ms. Not "fast for a directory" fast. Just fast. Updates as you type, no button press, no waiting. **20+ filters. Instant. Stackable.** Court type, coaching, accessibility features, amenities, pricing, opening hours — all live, all simultaneous. The granular detail from v1 is still there. We've just made it dramatically easier to actually use. **Quick-view modals** Evaluate a club without leaving search. Click, get everything — courts, amenities, hours, location. Swipe or keyboard-navigate to compare your shortlist without losing your place. **"Near Me" with real open/closed status** Based on actual operating hours, not just a location ping. Open now means open now. **Interactive map with clustering** 1,009 clubs across 11 countries needs proper clustering to stay usable. It does. Works on mobile without destroying your battery. **Mobile-first throughout** 70%+ of padel searches happen on phones. We built every interaction around that reality, not as a retrofit. **Now available in 10 languages** English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Afrikaans, Arabic, Hindi, and Chinese. Padel is a global sport — TrustPadel should be too. **Full club self-management** This one was genuinely hard to build properly. Club owners can now sign up and manage their own listings directly — hours, courts, amenities, all of it. Merchants and industries coming soon. **Working towards full WCAG 2.2 accessibility compliance** The original mission — making it easier for parents of kids with additional needs, players with mobility requirements, anyone who's ever had to make ten phone calls just to answer a basic question — hasn't shifted an inch. Accessibility isn't a feature tick for us. It's the reason this exists. **Why it's different** Every competitor in this space is a static list with a Google Maps embed. A name. An address. Maybe a phone number. We built proper search infrastructure, real manually-researched data, and a UX that respects your time. No ads. No bloat. No premium tier hiding the useful stuff. Still bootstrapped. Still a tiny team — I'm still the only tech person. No big sponsors, no investors, no one monetising your attention. Just people building something for the love of the game. **Completely free. No login. No subscription. No catch.** [trustpadel.com](https://trustpadel.com) **What we need from you** Same ask as last time — because it worked. * Is your local club missing? * Is anything listed wrong — hours, court count, permanently closed? * Is there a filter you wish existed? * Did something feel broken or slow or confusing? * Any feature you think could benefit padel as a whole? That's how v2 became v2. Drop it in the comments, DM me, find me anywhere — v3 gets built around what this community actually needs. *Tomorrow* I'm taking my daughter out for the first time in nearly a year. **Tonight** I'm reading every comment. 🙏
