JUNIOR PADEL ACADEMY

Our Junior Padel Academy gives young players regular coaching and the chance to develop their game over a structured course.

Led by experienced LTA-qualified coaches, sessions combine skills, technique and tactics with matchplay, helping players understand the game and put what they’re learning into practice.

Courses are available for different ages and are suitable for both beginners and more experienced junior players. Our current programmes typically run as five-week courses, with options for players aged 8+ and 12+ depending on the club.

YOUTH CLUB

Youth Club gives young players a regular place to play padel and be part of their local Soul Padel community.

It’s about playing rather than coaching – relaxed, facilitated sessions where young people can get on court, play with others and keep coming back to the game. It’s designed to complement more structured coaching rather than replace it.

Youth Club is currently being piloted at Braehead, with a view to bringing it to more Soul Padel clubs in future.

JUNIOR TOURNAMENTS

For young players who want to put their game to the test, we also run junior competitive opportunities at selected clubs.

It’s a chance to experience matchplay, compete against other junior players and put the skills they’ve been developing into practice.

Junior competitions vary by club, so keep an eye on your local club programme for upcoming tournaments and competitive sessions.

Junior Coaching

Our junior coaching programmes are designed to help young players build confidence, develop their skills and enjoy the game in a fun, social environment.

Sessions are organised by age and ability, making them suitable for complete beginners as well as those looking to take their game to the next level.

Programmes, session times and age groups vary by club, so please check your local venue for the latest availability.
Places are limited and can be booked through Playtomic.

School Holiday Padel Camps

Our popular two-hour holiday camps run during school breaks and are open to all experience levels. These high-energy sessions combine skills coaching, fun games, and plenty of rally time with friends.

Dates and availability vary by location and holiday calendar. Check Playtomic or contact your local club for the latest schedule.

  • Water bottle

We provide rackets, balls, and everything else!

PADEL
PARTIES

BRING THE PARTY TO THE COURT

Looking for something different for their next birthday? Junior padel parties get everyone on court for an active celebration with friends.

They don’t need to be experienced padel players – it’s about getting everyone involved and having a good time on court.

Parties are arranged directly with the club, so get in touch with your local Soul Padel team to find out what’s available.

WHAT'S THAT RACKET?

PADEL DOESN'T ONLY START AT THE CLUB

What’s That Racket? introduces children to padel through schools, giving more young people the opportunity to pick up a racket and experience the game.

Children take part through participating schools rather than booking directly with Soul Padel. For those who want to keep playing afterwards, our wider junior programme provides more opportunities to get back on court – a need that helped inform the development of Youth Club.

Safeguarding at Soul Padel

We want every young person to feel safe, supported and included when they play with us. You can find out more about our approach, policies and safeguarding contacts on our dedicated safeguarding page.
