East Dorset Padel

We are a busy and friendly Tennis, Croquet and Bridge club with some 800 adult and junior members located in the heart of Ashley Cross, Poole, Dorset. Our welcoming and vibrant atmosphere was acknowledged by the Dorset LTA as they awarded us the Dorset Club of the Year in 2019.

We have some of the finest tennis facilities within Dorset, comprising 16 Championship standard Tennis Courts on 3 different surfaces, 4 Artificial Clay, 6 Astro (Artificial Grass) (all with recently installed LED floodlights) and 6 Grass Lawns with free to members bookings on all of our courts.

Our Club also has 5 full-size tournament standard grass Croquet Lawns where members play both Association and Golf Croquet.

The Club House includes a fully stocked and licensed Bar and a Cafe both open daily, including a weekly changing menu and Sunday Lunch. The Club Function Room is available for hire at modest rates and is used by a whole spectrum of the local community from exercise classes such as Pilates, Yoga and Zumba to Language, Art, Music and other classes.

Padel Bookings

We offer both Pay and Play and Padel Booking Membership. We use the Playtomic App and anyone can book on there to play with 5 day’s notice.

As a Padel Booking Member, which costs £50 per annum, you can book 14 days in advance, which is the same as for our full Tennis and Croquet members, so well worth having.

Charges are £22 per hour Off Peak and £26 per hour for Peak times, which are weekdays 5 pm til 9 pm and Saturdays 12 noon til 5 pm. Cancellations are up to 24 hours before the start time.
