About PadelTerra

PadelTerra is an independent guide to padel in Europe. It has three parts: a directory of padel clubs country by country, free tutorials on how to play, and, later, guides to padel equipment. It is run by Andrei Ionut.

How we find and check clubs

Every club in our directory comes from research into real, operating venues. For each club we record where the details came from and when we checked them, and each club page shows that date.

• Confirmed clubs have their name and address confirmed on the club's own website. These are the listings we stand behind, and they are the only club pages we ask search engines to index.
• Unconfirmed clubs are marked as such. Some were confirmed only on an official booking platform the club uses, such as Playtomic. Others, mostly in Italy, were imported from OpenStreetMap and have not yet been checked with the club. Check their details with the club before you travel.
• Court numbers appear only where the club itself publishes them. Where sources disagree, we leave the number out rather than guess.
• Map locations come from the club's own map link, its booking page or an address lookup in OpenStreetMap. Clubs we could not place on the map at all are left out.

We never invent clubs, addresses, prices or reviews. Listings are not paid for, and booking links go straight to the club or the platform it uses. They are not affiliate links.

Where our figures come from

National figures, such as the number of padel courts in each country, come from the International Padel Federation's World Padel Report 2025 or from national federations. Each figure is shown with its source and date.

Our tutorials are based on the official rulebooks: the International Padel Federation's Rules of Padel, and for comparisons the ITF Rules of Tennis and the USA Pickleball rulebook. Facts link to their sources.

Corrections and new clubs

Clubs open, close and move. If a listing is wrong, or if you run a club that is missing, use our contact form. Please include the club's name, town and a link to its website or booking page so we can confirm the details. We check every correction against the club's own information before changing a listing.
