The businesses powering padel.

Built for the business of padel

BidPadel brings together brands, retailers, court specialists, technology companies, marketers, consultants and multisite club operators serving the UK padel market. Operator listings require at least two open UK padel locations. Operators can showcase their networks to potential brand, event and commercial partners. Suppliers can be based anywhere in the world; they must serve UK clubs or businesses to be listed.

Listings are free. Businesses can pay to move higher on a public, cumulative leaderboard. The numbers show paid visibility, not a quality score or endorsement.

Founded by Richard Patey

I write about the business of padel: what clubs charge, what they cost to run and what makes them work. BidPadel connects that audience with the businesses behind the sport.

I turned down ambassador, affiliate and distributor opportunities with padel brands. I have no such arrangements with businesses on this board. Paid visibility is open to everyone under the same published rules.

Qualifying monthly category winners get individual LinkedIn posts written by me. The overall winner gets a dedicated edition of my LinkedIn newsletter, The Business of Padel. BidPadel starts on 1 October 2026, with the first cutoff at the end of October. From November, either bonus requires at least £10 in new qualifying bids during that month. An old leading balance does not earn recurring content. See how rankings and the bonus work →
