About Loco
Built fromthe game.
Loco Padel is a new club for Bolton, started by people who fell hard for padel and wanted somewhere that felt like theirs.
Fast rallies, quick reactions, constant back and forth. The whole club is designed around that feeling: simple to book, easy to walk into on your own, and built to grow as the sport grows. Whether it's your first hit or your hundredth, you'll find a game here.
Connection
A club that makes it easy to find a fourth, meet people at your level and play more than you planned to.
Rhythm
Courts you can book in seconds, sessions that run on time, a pathway from intro to league that keeps you moving.
Community
Socials, Americanos, box leagues and a WhatsApp group that never sleeps. The court is the excuse. The people are the point.

Hire the wholeclub for a day.
Five courts, coaches, café and lounge, closed to the public and run for your people. Team days, client hospitality, product launches, or a Christmas do that isn't a meal and a speech.
Nobody needs to have played before. Our coaches take a room full of beginners to rallying inside an hour, and a handicapped tournament means the office ringer doesn't just walk it.

FAQ
Good questions.
Anything else, message us on WhatsApp. A human answers, usually within the hour during opening times.
How do I book a court?
Through Playtomic. Download the app (or use the web version), search for Loco Padel, pick a court and a time, then pay everything or just your share. Courts release 14 days ahead.
I've never played. Where do I start?
Book an Intro session. Sixty minutes with a coach, racket included, no experience needed. After that, join a beginner social and you'll have people to play with. See the pathway.
I don't have anyone to play with.
You do now. Join an open match in Playtomic and you'll be matched with players at your level. Or post in the WhatsApp group. Someone is always looking for a fourth.
Do I need my own racket and balls?
No. Rackets are available to hire at reception for £5 and balls are for sale. Balls are provided in coached sessions.
What should I wear?
Normal sports kit and clean, non-marking trainers. Tennis or padel shoes are ideal once you're playing regularly, but running trainers are fine to start.
What's the cancellation policy?
Cancel in Playtomic up to 24 hours before your slot for a full refund. Inside 24 hours the booking is charged.
How much does it cost?
Courts are priced per court, not per person, from £40 off-peak for 60 minutes. Split four ways in the app. Group coaching is £20 a head and one-to-one lessons are £60 an hour. Full pricing is here. Membership details are coming soon.
Are the courts indoor?
