How much does it cost the club?

For the cost of the Padel courts, the answer is simple - there is NO cost to the club.
‍Not one penny.

‍Mindspring Padel will cover 100% of the costs related to the delivery, installation and structure of the Padel courts. In addition, we will cover additional costs for groundworks (i.e., foundation), if necessary (and subject to final cost).

How does it work?

Your land
The club provides an indoor or outdoor site, ideally an under-utilized Tennis, practice or sport court. The club will be responsible for securing all necessary building permits.
Our funds
We will pay 100% of the Padel court costs. We will also cover all or a portion of the groundwork costs if they are required.
Our Padel App
Our Padel App will help your club to manage the courts, as well as your player community. This is essential to ensure all booking and performance data is shared transparently with Mindspring Padel.
First 3 years
During the first 3 years, the Padel court booking fees (or a percentage of membership fees) will be shared equally between the club and Mindspring Padel.
Next 7 years
After 3 years and for the next 7 years, we retain 10% of revenue to monitor and support your club’s success, advise on new commercial and technology opportunities and ensure long-term commitments. The club retains 90% of the court revenues.
Throughout the Partnership
Your Tennis club will always retain 100% of ancillary revenue generated from increased food and beverage spending, group and private lessons, social events and shop sales.
Friendly Support

What are the risks, and who’s taking them?

For Mindspring Padel the risk is believing in the Tennis community as the best home of Padel. And as we are convinced that Padel’s future growth and development is going to be catapulted by the Tennis community, we’re willing to take the risk of investing with committed Tennis club partners.

For you, the risk is limited only to your club’s desire and commitment to integrate and embrace the Padel community into your Tennis environment.
"Why is MIndspring Padel taking the risk? The answer is simple - because we’re both Padel and Tennis enthusiasts who believe in the potential of Padel at Tennis clubs.

We’re confident that the investment will pay off for all of us. And we’re counting on the Tennis community to take advantage, as your success will define our success."
