The Problem: Growth Is Creating Operational Friction

Peak times create pressure across:

- Staff availability
Unlike traditional gyms, padel has:
- High turnover between bookings
- Social group arrivals
- Equipment-heavy players
This creates a perfect storm of:
- Queues
- Delays
- Poor first impressions
And ultimately:Lost repeat business
