There will be free intro to Padel sessions for anyone who wants to come along, a social tournament and a Beat the Pro challenge with prizes to be won, food and drink and a DJ.
Powerleague runs the Edinburgh Sighthill Club with 5-a-side and 7-a-side pitches already in use by hundreds of people every week. Now there are four Padel courts for players to enjoy using the top of the range Babolat equipment. These are designed for year round play with hour long and 90 minute sessions for beginners and experienced players with lessons and social events.
John Gillespie, CEO of Powerleague, said: “Powerleague Edinburgh Sighthill is already a vibrant centre for small-sided football, and we’re excited to expand our offer with the introduction of Padel. It’s quickly becoming a go-to activity for staying active and social, as it’s fast-paced, easy to learn, and ultimately, a lot of fun.
“Earlier this year, we launched Padel at our Portobello club, and the response has been phenomenal. It’s attracted people of all abilities, from seasoned players to complete beginners, and we’re looking forward to making the sport even more accessible across the city.”
Powerleague Edinburgh Sighthill also offers facilities including a clubhouse, bar, and changing rooms, providing everything players and visitors need for a great sporting and social experience. The club is well-connected by public transport, with regular buses and trams from the city centre taking under 30 minutes, making it easy for players to access.
The Powerleague launch party will take place on 30 October from 5pm to 9pm at the Sighthill Club on Bankhead Drive.
