About Us
We started PATL to build the places we wanted to spend our own time in.
Anyone can build courts. We’re building the community around them.
We set out to grow padel in the US by bringing it to people all over the country. We started by opening the first padel clubs in Georgia and Kentucky, where we’re from, and we’re opening in South Carolina and Washington soon.
Try it once. We know you’ll be hooked.
