Purple Padel Club

Purple Padel Club is a community focused padel venue set on Butterwick Grange Farm at Epworth, Doncaster DN9 1FP, in North Lincolnshire. The site sits just off the A161 between Epworth and Belton.

The M180 (junction 2) is a short drive away for players travelling in from Scunthorpe, Doncaster and the wider Isle of Axholme. The club opened in 2025 as a two court indoor facility, run as a family project.

The vibe is small and welcoming rather than corporate. Find more on the venue website at purplepadelclub.co.uk, or check live availability on Playtomic before you head over. Rackets and balls are kept on site, so first time players can simply turn up in trainers and play.

The padel courts

Purple Padel Club runs two indoor padel courts, both standard doubles size with full panoramic glass at the back. Being fully enclosed means play is rain or shine across all four seasons, which matters in this corner of Lincolnshire where outdoor courts can lose weeks to winter weather.

Indoor lighting keeps the courts usable from early morning through to late evening, with consistent ball bounce that suits beginners learning the wall game. The court layout is compact, with both pitches under one roof and a short walk from the car park to the entrance.

Loan rackets and balls are provided as part of the booking, which is unusual at this price point. That removes the equipment barrier for newcomers and casual groups who want to try padel without buying gear first.

Booking and access

Court bookings are handled through Playtomic, where you can book a court at Purple Padel Club on Playtomic. Live rates appear at the booking step and start from around £24 per court.

That makes this one of the more affordable padel options in the Doncaster and Scunthorpe catchment. Pay-and-play is the standard model, with no membership required to reserve a slot, and the booking flow shows the most current cancellation policy.

The club is open 07:00 to 22:00 every day of the week, giving flexibility for early risers, lunchtime games and after work sessions. Free private parking is available on the farm site, with a changing room, lockers and WiFi for players freshening up after a match.

For booking questions or group enquiries, phone or WhatsApp the club on +44 7808 955715. The Playtomic page also lists academy and social slots that sit outside the standard court hire calendar.

Programme and social padel

Beyond standard pay-and-play court hire, Purple Padel Club runs academy style sessions through Playtomic, with beginner friendly classes and intermediate clinics scheduled regularly. Academy slots are priced from around £10 per player.

That makes them accessible for first timers wanting a structured introduction to padel before booking a full court with friends. Drop-in places are released through the Playtomic app, with limits set per session by the club.

The club also leans on its Facebook and Instagram channels to share fixture nights, mix-in style social sessions and community events. Because it is a small, family run site, the calendar tends to fill up quickly when social slots go live.

Following @purplepadelclub on Instagram is the easiest way to stay current on what is coming up that week. Group enquiries for private mix-ins or league nights can be booked direct through the WhatsApp number.

Best for padel in Epworth

This venue is a strong fit for residents of Epworth, Belton, Crowle, Haxey and Scunthorpe who want a local padel option without travelling to Doncaster, Sheffield or Hull. The pay-and-play pricing makes the first visit easy.

Free parking and inclusive racket loan make it especially welcoming for newcomers, couples and family groups trying padel for the first time. The 07:00 to 22:00 daily window suits both early shift workers and evening league players.

It is less suited to high level competitive players who need three or more courts for tournaments, deep coaching pathways with named pro coaches, or premium amenities such as a cafe, bar or gym on site.

For a friendly community club with two well kept indoor courts and long daily opening hours in a rural North Lincolnshire setting, Purple Padel Club delivers exactly what it sets out to do.
