Padel tennis may be in its infancy in the UK, but its growing popularity suggests that it is set to become a sporting phenomenon in the next few years. The shortage of courts in the UK is one of the main barriers holding it back, and funders are keen to see more courts and more opportunities to play.

Such is demand for facilities that the forward-looking clubs and Councils that have installed them are finding they soon generate a valuable income stream that can generate a return on their investment.

Although few grants have yet been made for padel tennis, funders view it as a priority sport.
