The UK as of now has an elite contender. Tia Norton, 18, from Leamington, turned into the primary British lady to contend in and win a World Padel Tour match at the Malaga Open in Spain this month, with her Swedish accomplice, Amanda Girdo. Tia is currently 184th on the planet rankings, making her GB's top player. Her vocation so far has been financed by her folks, with sponsored preparing and court time given by Stratford Padel Club at London's Olympic Park. 

"I played tennis from the age of seven and attempted padel interestingly at 12," says Tia. "A couple weeks after the fact, I entered preliminaries for the Under-14 GB group and was chosen for the World Championships in Mexico, where I figured out how to get to the quarter finals. From that point onward, I quit playing tennis." 

Top padel players acquire a minuscule part of the prize cash accessible to favorable to tennis players, yet Tia has no second thoughts about staying with the lesser-known game and has conceded a spot at Nottingham University to contemplate engineering so she can keep contending. 

"The top prize cash is around 4,000 Euros between the pair. You can get more from sponsorship," she says. "However, it's been a unimaginable encounter and I wouldn't transform it for anything." 

Anka Mandleson, co-proprietor of the Stratford Padel Club where Tia trains, says the game has surpassed football as far as newcomers. 

"The increment has been too much," she says. "We began in December 2018 with less than 50 players, at the present time we have more than 2,500. We see 30 to 50 new players each week and we've heard that grassroots football doesn't accomplish that degree of interest. We have a few ATP top 500 tennis players routinely playing at the club, where you [can also] have a lager, eat some paella and track down a welcome like you would at your companion's home." The club slips individuals into the game with thirty minutes of instructing and a three-month enrollment for £10. 

The Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) trusts that, notwithstanding devoted clubs like Stratford, UK tennis and squash clubs will add padel courts to draw in new players – following the instances of France and Italy where public tennis leagues additionally administer the game and have figured out how to take the game from around 100 courts to more than 1,000 in a short space of time. 

While recently, Edinburgh-based Game4Padel, upheld by Sir Andy, concurred a 10-year rent to work courts at Westfield London mall in Shepherds Bush. 

"The LTA sees padel as an approach to build interest and backing social clubs that may be battling with declining support," says Tom Murray, head of padel. "Since the game isn't power prevailing, the age bunch is wide, from young people to seniors – even up to 85. The entire family can play together." 

He concedes that Covid has helped the game, with individuals frantic to return to practicing after the lockdown and looking for new games to attempt. 

So to perceive what the quarrel is about I book a meeting at my nearby, Ashtead Tennis and Squash Club. It opened a padel court in October 2020 and has effectively drawn in 75 new individuals. 

"The circumstance couldn't have been something more," clarifies courts administrator Rachael Burgess. "At the point when we could open outside once more, the padel meetings were unimaginably famous. It's a game for all ages and capacities and a great deal of more established players think that its more lenient than tennis."
