Padel
The Limpsfield Club is delighted to have Padel alongside its more familiar racket sports of tennis, squash, racketball, badminton and table tennis.
Padel is the fastest growing racket sport in the world and the LTA has been named as the governing body for the sport as it is quickly catching on in the UK. Padel is a blend of tennis and squash that is easy to play, fun and sociable. It is played mainly in a doubles format on an enclosed court smaller than a tennis court and can be played in groups of mixed ages and abilities, as it is not power dominant. The rules are similar to tennis, although you serve underarm and the walls are used as part of the game and the ball can be played off them. Padel is playable all year round and members can book online through Clubsys.
Currently any member who holds an 'Outdoor' or 'Indoor' membership may play Padel in off-peak times (Monday - Thursday 9am to 5pm, Friday 9am - 12pm, Saturday & Sunday 5pm - 9pm).
Those members that have paid the 'Peak Padel' uplift fee may play at any time, 9am - 9:30pm.
Padel court charge is £6 per hour at peak times and £3 per hour during off-peak times.
Padel floodlighting is charged at +£2 per hour.
