Foundry Padel

Foundry Padel is Portland’s first dedicated padel club, opened in 2026 by Jake and Monica Killion at 8613 N Crawford St, Portland, OR 97203. The site sits in the Cathedral Park neighborhood, just off N Lombard Street and a short drive from Interstate 5 and US-30.

The club occupies a 13,800 square foot former industrial building, with 40-foot ceilings tall enough for the highest lobs and a 5,000 square foot two-story social area overlooking the courts. Visit the venue site at foundrypadel.com for current schedule and announcements.

Foundry Padel was built to make padel approachable for the Pacific Northwest, where the sport is brand new. The Killions designed the club around social play, skill-based matchmaking, and a short learning curve for first-timers.

Glass-walled courts let spectators upstairs watch every rally, and the second-story glass railing creates a clear sightline across both bays. Google reviews currently average 5.0 stars and describe a welcoming room that suits both newcomers and experienced players coming from tennis or racquetball.

The padel courts

Two panoramic indoor courts are currently open during the soft-launch phase, with a planned expansion to four courts later in 2026. Both courts are fully enclosed in glass, climate-controlled, and lit with LED arrays for consistent indoor play.

The playing surface is a turf carpet that is gentler on knees and ankles than a hard court, a feature the founders highlight as a draw for players coming over from tennis or pickleball. Two of the planned four courts are sponsored by Adidas.

The 40-foot ceiling clearance is unusually generous for an indoor padel club, supporting full-height lobs and a more attacking style of play than the typical 24 to 26 foot warehouse build allows.

Booking and access

Court rentals are priced at $60 per court for a 60-minute session, which works out to roughly $15 per player for a standard doubles match. Live rates and any 90 or 120 minute slot options show at the booking step on Playtomic.

Bookings run through the Playtomic platform, where players can book a court on Playtomic or use the app’s skill-rating system to find partners at a similar level. Cancellation terms appear at the booking screen on Playtomic.

Opening hours are Monday to Saturday 7:00 to 22:00 and Sunday 7:00 to 21:00. On-site free parking and WiFi are available throughout the building. For group enquiries or questions, call (971) 378-7499.

Padel programme and social

Foundry Padel leans hard into the social side of the sport. The two-story lounge above the courts pours Oregon wines and beers from local breweries, with outside food welcome and food trucks parked two minutes away.

The pro shop carries Wilson and Adidas rackets for sale and for rent, so first-time players can show up empty-handed and still play a full match. Pro shop staff can also help newcomers pick a frame that matches their level.

Programming includes academy clinics from around $20, organized tournaments and competitions from $15, and social padel mixers paired through the Playtomic matchmaking app. See the coaching tab on this page for current lesson tiers and pricing.

Best for

Foundry Padel suits Portland-area players who want a single-sport, social-first club close to North Portland and St. Johns. Complete beginners appreciate the welcoming room and short learning curve, while intermediates value the consistent skill-matched games delivered through Playtomic.

Stronger players come for the unusually high ceiling and panoramic glass, both rare in the US indoor market. Anyone hunting for a multi-sport facility with squash, tennis, or full fitness floors will need to look elsewhere - this is a focused padel-only build with a cafe, pro shop, and viewing lounge attached.

The Cathedral Park location also makes the club an easy stop after work for downtown commuters, with quick access from the St. Johns Bridge and free parking on site.

Foundry Padel runs in-house academy clinics, beginner introductions, and skill-based group sessions designed to bring Pacific Northwest players into the sport from scratch. Tiers, coach assignments, and pricing are confirmed on Playtomic at the booking step.
