Classic Americano
Rotating partners, short matches, points for every game you win.
View gameA corporate padel event combines padel with team‑building, networking and brand visibility. Whether you’re planning a client day, an internal away day or a charity fundraiser, this guide gives you simple formats, schedules and ideas that work for mixed abilities and busy diaries.
Padel is easier to pick up than tennis, highly social and naturally played in doubles – perfect for teams, networking and mixed abilities.
Many UK clubs now have covered or indoor padel courts, making corporate events more weather‑proof. Use Padel Courts Near Me to shortlist suitable venues near your office or clients.
Knowing what success looks like helps you choose the right format and tone.
For a first event, aim for a 3–4 hour slot with mixed‑ability formats, simple scoring, snacks and an informal prize‑giving at the end.
These formats are forgiving, easy to run and work well with beginners and mixed levels.
For most corporate groups, a Mexicano or Americano with rotating partners works best – it keeps things social, avoids mismatches and lets everyone meet lots of colleagues or clients.
Adapt these templates to your group size, court availability and goals.
PaddlePals can generate rounds, allocate players to courts, track scores and standings in real time, letting you focus on guests instead of spreadsheets.
Corporate groups nearly always include complete beginners – build your format around that reality.
Make it clear that padel is for everyone, not just sporty staff. Offer side roles (umpiring, photography, cheering, scoreboard updates) for those who prefer lighter activity, and celebrate effort and team spirit as much as winning.
Keep scoring simple and prizes fun – this is team‑building, not a pro tour.
Use PaddlePals to generate branded victory certificates with your company logo and event name (“Q2 Sales Padel Cup”, “Client Mixer 2026”), plus small prizes such as vouchers, branded towels or water bottles.
The off‑court experience is just as important as what happens on court.
In the UK, always ask the venue about wet‑weather plans. For outdoor‑only sites, have a simple backup: shorter matches, more off‑court networking or a reserve date agreed in principle.
A quick checklist from first idea to post‑event follow‑up.
With PaddlePals you can manage sign‑ups, create draws, track scores live and generate branded certificates – cutting down on spreadsheets and paper.
You now have a template – adapt it to your company, clients and budget.
