Dubai Padel Opens New Padel Center with a Glowing Twist
Who says padel can only be played seriously. Dubai opens it’s newest padel center and it gives us a side of nightclub vibes. Way to double the fun!
There are many reasons why this club was designed with eccentric features. For starters, no one can see how sweaty and tired you are in the dark. No one will see your struggling face or how hard you’re grimacing. But also, there’s an added element of fun nightclub vibes for the youthful players that want to multitask working out and having fun!
The Alley DXB is a brilliant new glow-in-the-dark padel center, which opens officially in Al Quoz (just beside Warehouse Gym) in mid-August.
The huge warehouse space is pitch black. They offer glow-in-the-dark racquets, tennis balls, and fluorescent orange, pink, green, and red lines marking out the courts and walls of the three padel courts. So all you get to see are the movements and all the fun.
The whole place looks fresh out of a sci-fi movie.
Founded by avid tennis enthusiast and entrepreneur Khalifa Bin Hendi, the opening marks the first of its kind in the region. “We are so excited to launch The Alley this month officially,” Khalifa explains to What’s On. “We know there are many padel centers here in the UAE, and we didn’t want to be copycats. That’s why we’ve launched something very unique that’s really fun. I want us to be the Barry’s Bootcamp or Crank of Padel!” he added.
“We believe The Alley makes padel more accessible and fun,” Khalifa explains. “We’ll be launching theme nights and padel-fit classes. We’ll also be hosting birthday parties and maybe even have a live DJ spin some nights, too.”
Each padel court comes with its own speaker system so that you can link up your own music to the courts. If you’re new to the sport, don’t worry. You can sign up for lessons with the head coach.
Otherwise, grab four of your friends for a doubles game. Sessions cost Dhs440 for an hour, or Dhs660 for 90 minutes, with membership programs also available.
