02 THE RAPID IDEA
ONE COURT.
ALL YOURS.
Not a warehouse full of courts. A focused, design-led padel venue built around one premium court. When you book Rapid, that court is yours — no neighbouring games, no packed court hall, just your group and your time to play.
Rapid is access-controlled, with entry via your unique booking code. Book through the Padel Mates App, arrive, enter your code and play. Public pay-to-play, with the feel of a more private padel experience.

THE SHORT
ANSWERS.
01Do I need to be a member to play?＋
No. Rapid is open to everyone on a public pay-to-play basis. Rapid 40 is optional and capped at a maximum of 40 memberships. The first 20 will be released at launch, with priority booking and member benefits.
02What is Rapid 40?＋
A limited priority membership capped at a maximum of 40 players. The first 20 memberships will be released at launch, with any further release dependent on court demand and availability.
03I’ve never played padel before — can I still play?＋
Absolutely. Padel is quick to pick up, and we’re planning intro sessions and beginner coaching to help you get started.
04How do I book?＋
Court bookings, open matches, coaching and organised sessions will be managed through the Padel Mates App. Full instructions will be shared before launch.
05How do I access the Rapid building?＋
Your access code is provided through the Padel Mates App once your booking is confirmed. Simply enter it at the door.
06What is an Open Match?＋
An Open Match lets you play even if you don’t already have four players. Start a match in the Padel Mates App and open the remaining places for other players to join, or join an existing match yourself. It’s a simple way to find games, meet other local players and play more often.
07Why does Rapid have just one court?＋
Because that’s the point. Rapid is designed around one premium indoor court rather than a warehouse of courts. When you book, the court is exclusively yours for the session — giving you a more focused, private and uninterrupted place to play.
08Do I need my own racket or balls?＋
No. Rackets will be available to hire and balls are supplied, so you can simply turn up and play. Rackets and new tubes of balls will also be available to buy if you prefer your own kit — or want fresh balls for extra bounce and a faster game.
09When does Rapid open?＋
We’re targeting December 2026, subject to final approvals. Join the launch list and you’ll hear the opening date and booking launch first.
