Thistle Padel Edinburgh was established with the aim of introducing and growing the sport of padel in Scotland’s capital. Inspired by the rapid rise of padel across Europe, the founders set out to create a premier padel experience combining top-quality facilities, a welcoming community, and year-round play.
Our mission is to make padel accessible, enjoyable, and inclusive for all levels—from beginners to competitive players. The club focuses on community, coaching excellence, and fostering social engagement through events and tournaments.
Key features include panoramic glass courts, a vibrant social scene, and a central Edinburgh location that’s easily accessible. We regularly host open days, coaching clinics, and social leagues to grow the local padel community.
