Padel LK, the largest indoor Padel Tennis facility in Ireland, is set to open its doors in Ballysimon, Limerick in January 2025! The state-of-the-art venue will feature eight courts, a gym area with group classes, a retail space, and spectator areas, making it the ultimate destination for Padel enthusiasts.
Padel LK is the brainchild of local Limerick entrepreneur Peter Brazil, who has joined forces with fellow Limerick natives Cian McNamara, and Eimear McManus to bring the facility to life. Together, they form the founding team behind this project.
Tennis Padel, a dynamic blend of tennis and squash, is the world’s fastest-growing sport. Originating in Mexico in 1969, Padel is played on an enclosed court with scoring similar to tennis. The sport has grown exponentially in recent years, with millions of players worldwide.
The facility in Limerick will offer a range of amenities designed to cater to both casual and serious players including warm-up zones and a retail shop. Padel LK offers racket rentals and lessons with qualified coaches to help players learn or enhance their Padel skills. The opening will create up to ten new jobs for the local community.
“Our mission is to make Padel accessible to everyone, regardless of age or skill level,” added Cian McNamara, co-investor. “The beauty of Padel is that it is a game that people can pick up quickly, and we can’t wait to bring it to the people of Limerick, Tipperary, Clare, and beyond.”
Eimear McManus, a passionate Padel player and investor, also expressed her excitement. “I fell in love with Padel three years ago and I am thrilled that Limerick will now have such an incredible indoor facility. It is a game that everyone can enjoy, and I am excited to be part of this journey.
Padel LK will open in January 2025, and court bookings will be managed through the Padel LK mobile application, with reservations opening shortly.
