Napton Padel Club

Following further discussions with Napton Parish Council (NPC), we were delighted to be informed earlier this week that the Diocese has agreed to allow NPC to grant Napton Padel Club a five-and-a-half-year lease to build and operate two padel courts at Napton Sports Field. We are now awaiting the final documents for signing. Once these are completed, we will be able to move forward with construction.

Since we announced our Founding Membership option last month, we have had a tremendous response. More than a third of those who have registered live within Napton parish, while around 70% live within a 10-minute drive of Napton.

We can offer only 75 Founding Memberships, and to get early notice of when this becomes available, join the mailing list. If you are interested but haven't yet registered, there is still time to do so. Simply complete the form on our website: naptonpadel.org/priority-list. Founding membership offers everything standard membership offers plus more. Compare the two to help you decide and also look at other options by visiting naptonpadel.org/membership.

Once all parties have signed the lease documents, our construction partner, OnPoint Ltd, will be able to schedule a start date. We are therefore hopeful that construction can begin soon and that the courts will be up and playing while we still have some good summer weather!

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported the project, registered for membership and stuck with us during what has been a longer journey than we originally anticipated. It means a great deal to know there is so much enthusiasm and support for padel within our local community. And, as always, we are extremely grateful to RMF Raised Modular Flooring, our commercial sponsor, for their continued support.
