Build the business before opening the doors.
We help padel club owners and investors turn a project into a structured operating business — from the financial model and revenue strategy to academy, staffing and pre-opening operations.
Business planning, academy and operations.
The most important business decisions happen before the first booking.
Pre-opening decisions shape how the club earns revenue, uses capacity and manages costs. Connecting them early creates a clearer foundation for the future operating model.
- 01
Business model
How will the club actually generate revenue?
Define the commercial logic behind courts, academy and other relevant business units.
- 02
Capacity & revenue
What can the facility realistically produce?
Translate available courts, operating hours and products into a structured capacity and revenue model.
- 03
Pricing
How should the club monetize its capacity?
Structure pricing across relevant products, periods and demand levels.
- 04
Academy
How should the academy be built from day one?
Plan groups, coach capacity, court allocation, pricing and economics as a structured business unit.
- 05
Staffing & operations
What structure does the club need to operate?
Define roles, resources, schedules and processes before launch.
A padel club is more than court rental.
Different revenue units can coexist within one club. The appropriate mix depends on the project, market and operating model; every club does not need every revenue stream.
- Courts
- Academy
- Private lessons
- Events
- Memberships
- Retail / F&B
- Other revenue
- Revenue potential
- Cost structure
- Break-even
- Operating performance
Evaluate each business unit for its contribution, resource needs and fit within the whole club.
Know the numbers before committing to the operation.
The financial model translates project assumptions into an understandable operating scenario, connecting capacity and revenue with the resources and costs required.
- Investment assumptions
- Revenue projections
- Fixed costs
- Variable costs
- Staffing costs
- Court capacity
- Academy capacity
- Break-even
- Scenario analysis
| Assumption | Conservative | Base | Growth |
|---|---|---|---|
| Court demand | Lower utilization | Expected utilization | Higher utilization |
| Academy uptake | Slower enrollment | Expected enrollment | Stronger enrollment |
| Operating resources | Test cost coverage | Match planned activity | Test added capacity needs |
Conceptual scenarios for testing assumptions. These are not financial projections or guarantees of performance.
Turn the concept into an operating system.
- 01
Model
Define how the club creates revenue and understand the underlying economics.
- 02
Design
Structure pricing, academy, staffing and the operating model.
- 03
Prepare
Build processes, schedules, responsibilities and launch priorities.
- 04
Launch
Open with a structured operating framework rather than improvising after day one.
- 05
Measure
Compare actual performance against the original assumptions and identify deviations.
Build the academy as a business unit from day one.
The academy shapes court capacity, staffing, recurring revenue and customer retention. Plan its sporting structure and economics together before opening.

Opening day should not be the first operational test.
Define the core operating structure before customers arrive: who does what, how the club runs and which priorities need attention at launch.
