Indoor Padel Australia - Sydney

Indoor Padel Australia - Sydney sits inside a converted warehouse at Unit 1C - Building 1/85 O’Riordan St, Alexandria NSW 2015. The venue is within easy reach of the M1 Princes Motorway and the A36 Botany Road corridor.

Founded in 2021 by Catarina and Joao Segorbe, it was the first purpose-built indoor padel facility in Australia. The club has since grown into the largest in the country, running ten courts and hosting international competition.

Alexandria is one of Sydney’s busiest inner-city suburbs, just two stops from Central Station on the T8 Airport and South Line. Mascot Station is roughly a five-minute walk from the front door. Drivers benefit from free on-site parking.

The club opens at 5:00 AM daily and closes at 11:00 PM Monday to Thursday and Sunday. Friday and Saturday sessions run until midnight. Gate access codes are issued automatically through the booking system for unstaffed hours.

The courts

The Alexandria facility has ten padel courts in total. Eight are housed inside the warehouse under LED lighting, and two sit outdoors. All courts are doubles-standard with crystal-type glass walls.

The courts were built in partnership with Padel In One and installed by Synthetic Sports Group. Court surfaces use synthetic grass throughout the facility. The indoor courts offer year-round, weather-proof conditions with consistent lighting and temperature.

The outdoor courts suit those who prefer open-air play. Both environments share the same surface specification and glass-wall construction standard.

Booking and access

All court bookings are handled through the Playtomic app. Search for ‘Indoor Padel Australia Alexandria’ to view live availability. Prices are quoted per person for a 90-minute session.

Standard rates sit at approximately $25 AUD per person ($100 per court for four players). Peak-hour pricing rises to around $32 per person. Live rates are shown in the Playtomic app at the time of booking.

The IPA Wallet system offers savings for regular players. Top up with $100 AUD or more to unlock discounted session rates and waive Playtomic booking fees. Smaller top-ups of $25 and $50 are available at standard rates.

Racquet hire costs $7 per session, with ball tubes at $3. Equipment is accessible via automated lockers outside staffed hours or through the kiosk when staff are present.

Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours in advance for a refund, or 24 hours for members. The club issues Playtomic wallet credit rather than cash refunds for weather-affected outdoor bookings.

Programme and social

Indoor Padel Australia runs a structured coaching programme through its IPA Academy. Private and group classes are available for all levels in 60- or 90-minute sessions. See the coaching tab for tiers and pricing.

Weekly Drills sessions run in small groups of three to four players, focusing on specific skills and game situations. A dedicated Women’s Drills and Wellness session combines padel technique with strength exercises and injury-prevention stretches over 90 minutes.

Junior padel programmes cater to younger players looking to develop in a structured environment. Regular social events and members’ nights give players the chance to meet new partners in a relaxed setting.

On the competitive side, the club hosts the FIP Silver Australian Padel Open. The January 2025 edition drew international players and offered $30,000 AUD in prize money. The Nations Cup and regular in-house competitions run throughout the year.

A pro shop stocks racquets and accessories. The venue has a cafeteria and snack bar area with vending machines. Changing rooms with lockers and showers are available, and the facility provides disabled access and free WiFi.

Best for

The ten-court setup means availability is generally good even at peak times. Early-morning-to-late-night hours suit shift workers and early risers. The Playtomic system makes it easy to find open matches and connect with other players.

The IPA Academy and weekly drills are a strong option for beginners wanting structured progression. FIP-level tournament hosting and competitive events appeal to advanced players seeking high-level match play.

The Women’s Drills programme and junior sessions make it a solid choice for families and female players looking for dedicated programming. Newcomers to padel will appreciate the racquet hire and pay-and-play access.

Players seeking a boutique atmosphere may find the warehouse-scale venue less intimate. The sister venue at Indoor Padel Australia - Northern Beaches in Cromer offers a smaller four-court alternative on Sydney’s north shore.

The IPA Academy runs private and group coaching for all levels, with 60- and 90-minute sessions. Weekly Drills, Women's Drills and Wellness, and junior programmes complement the academy offering.
