New 24-Hour Padel Club Launching at Cheshire Oaks This Summer
A brand-new padel centre with championship-level indoor courts is set to open at Cheshire Oaks. Ignite Padel will be open 24 hours a day, with five top-tier indoor courts and two outdoor courts, allowing play in all weathers.
Now the fastest growing racquet sport in the world, padel – which is a cross between tennis and squash – has become hugely popular in the UK.
Ignite Padel, a Liverpool-based company, opened its first site in the city in April 2025 with six floodlit outdoor courts which have since been fully booked.
The new centre, which is located just minutes from the M53, is scheduled to launch in August 2025.
It will not only have world-class playing facilities, it also features a coffee shop and retail store where players can shop for racquets, balls and clothing in person rather than online and find exactly the right fit.
Like Ignite Padel Liverpool, the new Cheshire Oaks club will offer expert coaching from beginner to more experienced level.
With the social side of the game so important, players can join Ignite Padel’s exclusive What’s App community – the largest padel group chat in the North West – making it easy to instantly pair, and to find other people who’ve got open matches and join them.
There will be regular social tournaments where players of a similar standard – divided into bronze, silver or gold skill rankings – are able to compete to win personal points and have the opportunity to team up with different partners.
A spokesperson for Ignite Padel says Cheshire Oaks is the ideal location for its latest club.
He explained: “Cheshire Oaks is a major focal point for the whole area and millions of people head there every year, so it gives us a wide reach into Cheshire, Wirral and Liverpool in the winter months.
“The site we chose is on an industrial business park, less than two minutes from the motorway, so it’s very accessible and it’s a brand new unit with a 10-metre-high ceiling which is what we need.
“We are importing the courts from Spain ahead of our mid-August launch and they will all be championship standard quality and LTA approved.”
Being able to create indoor padel courts was also a key factor in the company’s expansion plans.
“Currently the nearest indoor club is at the Trafford Centre so players are having to travel there from Liverpool and even further afield.
“Having the five indoor courts, and two outdoor, will give us greater flexibility in what we’re able to offer and allow us to host top-level tournaments.
“It’s not just about being able to play in all weathers, the indoor game tends to attract more elite players because it is seen as a more pure form. It is a different experience to playing outdoors because there’s no wind so you get a truer trajectory on the ball.”
Ignite Padel Cheshire Oaks will be the company’s second club – it is aiming to open a total of five across the North West within 12 months.
