That Padel Club Newark

That Padel Club Newark is a purpose-built padel venue at Whittle Close, Newark-on-Trent NG24 2DY, on a former brownfield site off Brunel Drive near the town centre. It sits a short drive from the A1, A46 and A17, with Newark Northgate and Newark Castle stations both ten minutes away.

The building is a modern portal-frame structure topped with a domed roof, opened by the That Padel Club team as part of their UK group. Visit thatpadelclub.co.uk or Instagram @thatpadelclub, or ring 07399 195 332.

The padel courts

Newark has four covered, all-weather padel courts, listed on Playtomic as Padel 1, 2, 3 and 4. The courts sit under a permanent domed roof, with panoramic glass and mesh enclosures, internal LED floodlighting and a doubles layout throughout, so play continues comfortably through Nottinghamshire winters and summer heat.

Spectators can watch from the bar and cafe area inside the building, and the layout was developed with planning specialists Fytche-Taylor as a padel-first venue rather than a converted tennis or squash hall.

Court walls combine tempered glass at the back and side panels with steel mesh on the upper sides, giving the standard World Padel Tour rebound profile. Floodlighting runs the full session window, so 7am and 10pm matches play the same as midday games.

Booking and access

All courts are booked through Playtomic. You can book a court on Playtomic directly, with live rates and availability shown at the booking step for 60 and 90 minute slots. Off-peak is generally weekday mornings and afternoons, with peak slots from 4pm midweek and across weekends.

Opening hours are 05:30 to 23:00 Monday to Friday and 06:00 to 23:00 Saturday and Sunday, giving early-bird, lunchtime and late-evening options. The site has 21 on-site car parking spaces, eight cycle racks and step-free access from the Whittle Close car park into the venue.

Racket hire is free during off-peak (06:00 to 16:00 Monday to Friday) and three pounds per racket at peak times and weekends. Padel balls are stocked in an on-site vending machine. Cancellation and refund terms are handled through the standard Playtomic booking flow, and members get priority access to peak slots.

Padel programme and social

The club runs a regular social and competition calendar through Playtomic, including The Great Monday Social, intermediate and beginner-focused mix-ins and small in-house tournaments with entry fees typically around eleven to twelve pounds and fifty pence. Sessions are level-tagged so newer players are not thrown in with experienced regulars.

That Padel Club Newark also runs a coaching programme through its in-house Padel Academy with head coach Ryan, covering private lessons, group sessions and junior coaching. For tiers, prices and booking, see the coaching tab on this listing, the coaching page on the club website, or message the venue through their WhatsApp community linked on the site.

Two membership tiers are offered: TPC Monthly Membership at twenty pounds per month and TPC Annual Membership at two hundred and forty pounds per year, with member pricing on bookings and priority on peak slots. Email info@thatpadelclub.co.uk for membership enquiries.

Best for padel in Newark-on-Trent

That Padel Club Newark suits Nottinghamshire and South Lincolnshire players who want a proper indoor padel venue with predictable, weather-proof play, a real bar and cafe to hang around in after matches, and a structured social and coaching calendar rather than just open court hire.

It is less suited to players looking specifically for outdoor courts, full multi-sport facilities such as a gym, pool or spa, or pay-on-the-door drop-in without a Playtomic account. For those needs a larger multi-sport club in Nottingham or Lincoln may be a better fit, but for focused, modern padel in Newark this is the standout option.

That Padel Club Newark runs an in-house Padel Academy led by head coach Ryan, with private one-to-one lessons, level-tagged group sessions and junior coaching bookable through Playtomic's Academy section.
