Padel is one of the fastest-growing sports in recent years. Small court size, fast pace, and low entry barriers attract a wide range of players. But every operator faces the same problem - weather. Sun, rain, cold, and wind all render courts unusable. Members book courts but can't play, sessions get cancelled, and revenue suffers.
Indoor conversion is the only way out. But traditional court construction takes too long and ties up too much capital.
Aluminum Padel court tents offer a more practical solution – covering existing courts with an indoor space, no major construction work, no lengthy downtime. Court utilization goes from "weather-dependent" to "available year-round".

How many Padel courts can fit in one tent?
Depends on the span. 14-16m fits 1 court, 24-26m fits 2 courts, 34-36m fits 3 courts.
Is 6m clear height enough?
6m is the entry-level standard, suitable for daily training. For official competitions, 7-8m is recommended. Custom heights available.
Do we need to remove existing fencing and glass?
No. The tent is an independent cover that does not disturb existing facilities. Transparent PVC sidewalls allow light through without blocking players' view.
Does the ground need to be re-done?
No. The tent anchors directly onto the existing surface without damaging it.
How long does the cover last?
The cover fabric typically lasts 5-8 years and can be replaced while the frame remains in use.
Can it be relocated?
Yes. The modular structure is easy to dismantle and reassemble at a new site.
