If you're in the sports business — whether you run a club, manage a hotel facility, or you're a distributor in the fitness and leisure space — you’ve probably noticed the growing buzz around Padel. Alongside the standard courts, another format is gaining serious traction: the single padel court.
So, what is a single padel court? What is the size of a singles padel court, and why is it becoming such an attractive option for clubs and commercial facilities around the world?
Let’s break it down — from dimensions to business benefits.
Traditionally, padel is played on a doubles court, measuring 10 meters wide by 20 meters long. That’s the standard court size used in tournaments and most recreational setups.
However, in recent years, a new layout has emerged to meet the changing needs of club owners and facility managers: the single padel court, designed specifically for 1-on-1 gameplay.
The standard singles padel court measures 6 meters wide and 20 meters long. It maintains the full length of a traditional court but trims down the width, creating a more compact, high-intensity playing environment for two players.
Here’s a quick comparison:
| Court | Width | Length |
| Doubles Padel | 10m | 20m |
| Single Padel | 6m | 20m |
This design opens up new opportunities for businesses and clubs that might not have space for a full-size padel installation — but still want to offer the sport to their members or clients.
Whether you manage multiple clubs or distribute sports infrastructure, there are some compelling reasons why single padel courts deserve your attention.
One of the main barriers for clubs looking to add padel is space. A standard padel court requires a 200㎡ footprint — not always easy to accommodate in urban environments or indoor complexes.
A single court only needs 120㎡, making it ideal for:
● Rooftops
● Indoor gyms
● Existing tennis court conversions
● Compact commercial zones
You can fit more courts per square meter and, in some cases, offer multiple single courts instead of just one standard court.
From a revenue perspective, single padel courts present a great opportunity.
Clubs can use them for:
● One-on-one lessons (high margin)
● Individual bookings
● Waiting area warm-ups
● Skill development drills
Because they’re quicker and more intense, player turnover is higher, which means more sessions per day — and that translates into higher revenue potential.
The smaller size doesn’t just save space — it reduces material, labor, and installation costs. Compared to a full-size court, a single padel court can cost 30–40% less to build without compromising the essence of the game.
Maintenance is also more straightforward, especially if you work with a reliable manufacturer.
