This episode, we get back to fundamentals: the 20 x 10.Courts have come a long way since the concrete walls that still exist in legacy padel markets.

We take a global overview of the market as we talk about what is coming from different parts of the world, and is what is being stood up across the world.If you are looking to build a stand alone court, a multi-court club or a branded chain of venues, this is the episode for you.
