Paddles Up Pickleball & Padel

Paddles Up Pickleball & Padel sits at 5 South Jersey Avenue, Setauket-East Setauket, NY 11733, just off Route 25A and a short drive from the Long Island Expressway and Nicolls Road in Suffolk County. The site is home to the first public padel courts on Long Island.

The facility opened its padel wing in 2025 with three indoor panoramic courts built alongside a wider racket-sports complex covering pickleball, fitness and social play. Most padel sessions and lessons are booked through paddlesupny.com or via Playtomic, with walk-ins accepted when courts are free.

The site doubles as a community hub for the North Shore padel scene, with a fitness studio, full gym, locker rooms with sauna, and a pro shop attached to the courts. The premium lounge overlooking the playing area gives players and spectators a comfortable space between matches.

The padel courts

Three professional panoramic padel courts run indoors under a permanent roof, with synthetic turf surfaces, full glass back walls and metallic mesh sides. LED lighting keeps the playing surface evenly lit through evening sessions, and the climate-controlled hall means weather never cancels a booking.

Two of the panoramic courts are noted by the venue as extra wide, giving doubles teams more room to rotate at the back. The indoor build keeps padel at Paddles Up playable year-round, important on Long Island where winter weather would otherwise limit racket sports.

Racket hire, balls and grips are available on site through the pro shop, which also carries paddles and accessories for players ready to upgrade their kit. Sneakers with non-marking soles are required on the synthetic turf.

Booking padel and access

Court reservations run through Playtomic at book a padel court on Playtomic, or direct with the club by phone on (631) 675-0482 and email at help2@paddlesupny.com. Live padel rates show at the booking step on Playtomic and vary by time of day.

Off-peak court reservations across the wider venue start at $25 hourly Monday to Friday before 5pm, with padel court rates confirmed at the booking screen. A $150 monthly Unlimited Dink membership covers unlimited padel and pickleball court rentals plus half-price clinics for members.

Opening hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 10pm, Saturday 8am to 8pm and Sunday 8am to 6pm, subject to seasonal change. Free on-site parking is available alongside the building, and the pro shop, vending machines, snack bar and locker rooms are open during all court sessions.

Padel programme and social

Paddles Up runs clinics, beginner introductions and themed social mix-ins through the season, blending the established North Shore pickleball community with new padel players. Andy Morales leads padel coaching on site and is named in player reviews as the regular contact for lessons and clinics.

Summer camps, private bookings and league formats are coordinated through events@paddlesupny.com. The venue also hosts member events and private parties, with the premium lounge above the courts giving spectators a clear view of all three padel courts during round-robins and ladder evenings.

Detailed coaching pricing and program tiers are listed on the coaching tab. Junior padel sessions and family-friendly introductions are offered alongside the venue’s pickleball programs, with shared use of the gym, sauna and locker rooms.

Best for padel on Long Island

Paddles Up is the natural choice for North Shore players who want indoor padel without driving into New York City. It also suits pickleball converts looking to try padel for the first time in a familiar setting.

The Playtomic listing makes drop-in bookings straightforward, and the Unlimited Dink membership rewards regular players who use both racket sports. The on-site gym and sauna add value for members training around their court time.

It is less of a fit for players who only want to play outdoors, or who need late-night sessions beyond the 10pm weekday close. Players after a tour-style facility with six or more courts may find peak-time padel slots fill quickly across the three courts.

Padel coaching at Paddles Up is led by on-site coach Andy Morales, with clinics, private lessons and beginner introductions running alongside the venue's pickleball programmes.
