Building Napton Padel Club's two outdoor courts cost over £280,000. The majority of this was funded through loans, with the remainder coming from grants and fundraising. As a charitable community organisation, every penny of income beyond our running costs goes toward repaying this capital investment — there are no shareholders and no profit being taken out.

Our membership and court hire prices are set to make sure we can repay these loans within a sensible timeframe, while keeping padel as accessible as possible to the local community. This isn't about maximising revenue — it's about building a facility that will belong to Napton for decades to come, on a financial footing that's sustainable rather than one that leaves the club vulnerable.

To reflect our roots and our mission, Napton villagers benefit from discounted membership and court hire rates compared to non-village members. We want this club to be something the village built and the village enjoys, and our pricing structure is designed with that in mind.

We're always happy to talk more about how the club's finances work if you have questions — just get in touch. See the full breakdown on the Prices page.
