Three planning approvals put Padel People on course for nine venues by year-end

Independent UK padel operator Padel People is on course to increase its network by 50% this year after securing planning permission for three new venues this month.

The approvals cover sites in Oxfordshire, Wiltshire and Dorset and will take the business from six venues to nine by the end of 2026.

Beyond those locations, Padel People has a wider pipeline spanning 19 venues and 70 courts across England.

The announcement comes at a time when Britain is preparing to host its first-ever Premier Padel tournament at London's Olympia next week.
