Padel courts in
Birmingham.

Birmingham's padel courts have found room wherever they could: beside rugby and cricket pitches, at tennis clubs, at a university sports centre and in Digbeth. There is no single padel quarter. Instead you get a wide ring of venues, and the right one usually depends on which side of the city you live on.

As of October 2026 we list 20 venues with 65 courts within ten miles of the centre. Most of that is outdoor: 15 courts are indoor, spread over four venues. Thirteen venues take pay-and-play bookings, and the other seven are for members.

Where the courts sit, district by district

City centre and the inner ring

The closest courts to New Street are at Neighbourhood Padel in Digbeth, four outdoor courts booked through Playtomic, with coaching. A short way north, Aston University's Sir Doug Ellis Woodcock Sports Centre has three outdoor courts open to pay and play, plus parking and changing rooms.

Further out on the same side, Powerleague Birmingham in B6 has five outdoor courts under cover. South-west of the centre, Edgbaston Priory Club has three outdoor courts for members, with coaching.

East and north-east

Core Padel in Tyseley is the largest indoor venue in the city, with six courts, all booked on Playtomic. Up at Fort Dunlop, Padelhaus has three outdoor courts and runs coaching.

South: Moseley, Kings Norton and beyond

Two of the south side's venues share the Moseley name. Birmingham Moseley Rugby Club has four covered outdoor courts, and Moseley Cricket Club, which actually sits in Shirley, has four more, also covered and on Playtomic.

Further south, The Hayes Playing Fields near Longbridge has three outdoor courts and a café. Right at the edge of the area, Barnt Green Sports Club has three courts for members.

West: Handsworth and the Black Country

The west is where the indoor courts cluster. Pickwick Padel Club in B21 has two indoor panoramic courts, racket hire, a café and accessible facilities. Over the boundary, Padel Inn Great Bridge in West Bromwich has three indoor courts and Padel 7 Club in Dudley has four. Both use Playtomic.

North: Great Barr and Sutton Coldfield

This side leans towards clubs. David Lloyd Birmingham in B44 has two outdoor courts for members, with coaching. In Sutton Coldfield, Sutton Coldfield Tennis and Squash Club has three covered courts and Four Oaks Tennis Club has two, both for members. The Streetly Academy is the pay-and-play option here, with two outdoor courts.

Solihull

Inside the ten-mile line, Solihull Arden Club and David Lloyd Solihull Cranmore each have three courts for members, Cranmore's under cover and with coaching. Four Ashes Golf Centre near Dorridge has three outdoor courts you can book without joining.

Rain, roofs and winter evenings

With 50 of the 65 courts outdoors, the weather matters more here than in cities with big indoor centres. The four fully indoor venues are Core Padel (six courts), Padel 7 Club (four), Padel Inn Great Bridge (three) and Pickwick (two). Three of the four are west of the centre, so south and north Birmingham have fewer dry options.

Covered outdoor courts fill part of that gap. Five venues have them: Powerleague, both Moseley clubs, Sutton Coldfield Tennis and Squash, and David Lloyd Solihull Cranmore. A canopy keeps the rain off but not the cold, so dress for the temperature outside.

What a court costs

We have two sampled prices for the Birmingham area, both checked on 4 October 2026, for one court for an hour. Pickwick Padel Club ranged from £30 to £40, and The Hayes Playing Fields from £24 to £34. Split four ways, that is roughly £6 to £10 each.

Peak and off-peak prices differ everywhere, so treat those as a guide. For the other venues, the price shows up on the booking page or in the app when you pick a slot. The members' clubs charge for membership first, and some add a court fee on top.

Getting there by tram, train or car

Fourteen of the 20 venues are within a mile of a station or tram stop, and the West Midlands Metro serves several of them. Neighbourhood Padel is three minutes' walk from the Digbeth High Street stop, Padel 7 Club four minutes from Flood Street, and Aston University nine minutes from Curzon Street. Pickwick and Padel Inn are each about 11 minutes from The Hawthorns and Great Bridge stops.

By rail, Core Padel is eight minutes from Tyseley station, Powerleague 11 minutes from Aston, Sutton Coldfield Tennis and Squash nine minutes from Wylde Green and Barnt Green Sports Club nine minutes from Barnt Green. Several of the outer venues are a long walk from any station, so plan on driving or the bus.

Parking is listed at every venue except Neighbourhood Padel and Four Oaks Tennis Club.

Finding a game in Birmingham

Playtomic is the app that matters here: eight venues take bookings through it, including Core Padel, Pickwick and the Black Country clubs. Besides booking a court, it lets you join open matches that other players have posted, which is the easiest way in if you are short of a four. Our guide to booking a padel court in the UK covers how that works.

Five venues list coaching: Neighbourhood Padel, Edgbaston Priory, Padelhaus and both David Lloyd clubs. Only Pickwick lists racket hire, so if you are trying padel for the first time elsewhere, borrow a racket or ask the venue before you go.

If you are still building a group, there are ideas in how to find people to play padel with. Thinking about a coach? What to expect from padel lessons explains how a first lesson works.

New courts on the way

Three projects are on the way. Pure Padel Birmingham is expected in winter 2026 with seven indoor courts in the city, which would make it the largest indoor venue in the area. Pulse Padel Birmingham, at Coleshill about eight miles out, is due in November 2026 with four outdoor courts. A rooftop venue in Sutton Coldfield with four outdoor courts has planning approval, with no opening date yet. Our list of courts opening soon tracks all three.
