🏭 🔜 🎾 COAL POWER TO PADEL POWER ❓What do the Eiffel Tower, the iconic Westfield tennis club in NY (hosted 60x US Opens and 10x Davis Cup Finals) Gleneagles, Westfield London (Europe’s biggest shopping centre), the French Riviera, and a boat in Kuwait all have in common? 1️⃣ They’ve all been sites of the world’s No.1 pop-up padel court manufacturer, Instantcourts, that’s what. ❗️Well, you can now add the industrial masterpiece known as “the upside down table” to some and also as the cover of Pink Floyd’s album Animals to others. But known to most as Battersea Power Station. ⚡️In its 1930s - 1980s heyday, this London landmark coal-powered 20% of London’s electricity. Today, under its reinvention with shops, restaurants, pubs and entertainment, it’s also home to the sport that’s got the world talking, Padel (and with an achingly cool Blank Street Coffee pop up merch and iced matcha drink container alongside)… 🇸🇪 Instantpadel have had 170 installs across 18 countries in places that padel just shouldn’t be, but thanks to the Swedes, is. 👍 Their courts are playable for your everyday player. For a would-be operator tired of the tough task of finding the right plot of land and the endless wait for the planning permission light to turn from red to green, these courts offer the perfect answer to building your clun’s membership and player base before you’re even, well, a club. It can ensure you hit the ground running when the real deal permanent courts open. Plus, there’s no groundworks needed and a much swifter planning process. 🤔 After the Battersea Power Station, the big question is where possibly next?
