Padel at Wargrave

Padel came to Wargrave in 2025, and our second court is now open. Padel has been an instant success at the club, growing membership by 50% and helping us to win Berkshire Tennis Club of the Year.

We offer members padel coaching, club competitions and fun weekly padel sessions. Members can also book padel courts from just £10 per hour (£2.50 per player).

Padel Ladders

Following our inaugural Padel Club Championships, we are now running the Wargrave Padel Ladders!

This internal padel league is designed to help Wargrave Tennis Club members arrange padel matches with one another, while adding a healthy dose of competitive fun. You can also now download and use the SPOND App to help arrange matches and split the cost of court hire. Alternatively, join the relevant Club Padel WhatsApp group.

Keep scrolling down the page to see the latest leader board from the main padel ladder.

How the Padel Ladder Works?
  • The ladders run throughout the year.
  • Players enter individually and arrange matches with three others from their ladder using the free Rankade app (already covered by the Club).
  • Matches can be arranged using the WhatsApp Padel League group and also with the SPOND App that can be downloaded for free.
  • Each match should initially be played over three sets, with partners rotating after each set (so everyone partners with everyone once).
  • The top players will qualify for a Padel Ladder Finals Day in the Spring.
Which Ladder is Right for Me?

We’ve set up two ladders for the first season:

  1. New to Padel Social Ladder – ideal for those newer to the game or looking for more fun and relaxed competition.
  2. The Main Padel Ladder – for experienced players keen to test themselves and battle for the top spot.

Getting Started
  1. Download the Rankade app from your app store…this lets you record the results of your matches.
  2. Register with your full name and join your chosen ladder using the code sent to you via email.
  3. Join the relevant WhatsApp group in the Wargrave WhatsApp community(use the link and password sent via email or contact the Club membership secretary to be sent it again).
  4. Book a padel court (we suggest a minimum of 90 mins) via our website – a reminder that you can cancel your booking 6 hours before play without charge.
  5. Download the SPOND App – another way to help you organise matches and to split the cost of the court hire. You will need to join the relevant group for your ladder….codes will be sent via email.
  6. Play matches, have fun, meet new players, record results and watch the rankings evolve!
