Pickleball is a fast-growing racket sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. It's easy to pick up, great fun, and suitable for all ages and abilities. We run dedicated pickleball sessions throughout the week - check our schedule to find one that suits you.
What is a Playtomic rating?
Playtomic is the app we use for booking sessions. As you play more, Playtomic assigns you a rating based on your performance - this helps us match you with players of a similar ability in our coached sessions. If you're new, don't worry! Just join as a beginner and your rating will develop naturally over time.
How do I book a session or court?
All bookings are made through the Playtomic app or website. Simply download the app, search for Your Padel in Uttoxeter, and book your preferred session or court hire slot. Payment is taken at the time of booking.
Can I just turn up without booking?
We recommend booking in advance to guarantee your spot, as sessions can fill up quickly. Court hire may be available on the day subject to availability, give us a call or drop us an email at info@yourpadel.co.uk to check.
What is your cancellation policy?
Collapsible text is great for longer section titles and descriptions. It gives people access to all the info they need, while keeping your layout clean. Link your text to anything, or set your text box to expand on click. Write your text here...
Do I need to bring my own racket?
No — we have rackets and balls available to hire, so you don't need to bring anything with you. Many of our sessions include free racket hire as standard. Check the session details when booking to see what's included.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable sports clothing and, most importantly, appropriate sports footwear — trainers or court shoes are ideal. Please do not wear football boots, studded shoes, or anything with a marking sole on the courts.
