New club serves up sport for everyone

A NEW padel club is serving up more than just aces - by providing free sessions for school kids.

- 

Soul Padel is committed to opening up the game to the diverse communities who might not previously have had the chance to try the sport.

Its What's That Racket? youth programme has already introduced the game to hundreds of schoolchildren, which first opened in the summer of 2024.

Hundreds of pupils from the likes of Cheadle Catholic Junior School have already taken to the court, covering everything from warm-ups to shuttle drills with Soul Padel's dedicated team of coaches.

The club opened its permanent spot on June 7, adding four new covered courts to the two they already have, all protected by a canopy, along with a clubhouse for players to hang out and relax.

But it's not just the young ones getting in on the action, Soul Padel has an experienced club team on hand to help all ages and skill levels.
