Due to the growing need for courts in clubs, resorts, and private facilities, padel is still growing in popularity throughout the world. A typical padel court can cost anywhere from €23,000 to €25,000 to build, depending on the materials, location, and installation details, according to the Global Padel Report 2024. This number shows how popular the sport is becoming and how much money is needed to meet its infrastructural requirements.
Construction cost breakdown
The typical expenses associated with constructing a padel court are broken down in detail in the report:
The iron and glass structure will cost €16,000.
€3,500 for synthetic turf
Lighting systems cost €1,000.
€500 for extra gear
€2,000 to €4,000 for labor and installation
These numbers reflect the average market pricing throughout Europe; they may differ depending on the provider, local laws, and customization.
Investing strategically in clubs and venues
The purchase of padel courts is increasingly viewed as a calculated move by sports organizations and recreational facilities to expand their membership base and vary their offers. Padel courts have a lot of commercial potential due to their small size and high player turnover.
According to a European Padel Association spokesman quoted in the Global Padel Report 2024, “Padel is no longer a niche activity—it’s becoming a core feature in modern sports facilities.”
Considering the future
New materials and technology may result in changes to construction costs as padel’s growth continues. However, for facility managers and investors looking to enter the market, the current pricing mechanism provides a clear structure. Padel’s infrastructure footprint is expected to grow dramatically over the next several years due to increased demand in both urban and suburban areas.
