Built from experience
World Padel Network started in Barcelona, where founder Jamie Rowe experienced first-hand how padel connects people from completely different backgrounds and from across the world.
But there was no single, trusted place to find where to play, who to partner with, or what was happening in the industry globally. The information was scattered, the data unreliable, and the connections ad hoc.
World Padel Network was built to change that, combining verified data, premium editorial and a global business network in one trusted platform, spanning 30+ countries.
Global by design. Local by instinct.
Padel’s growth looks different in every market. World Padel Network covers 30+ countries and publishes in four languages, because the padel community in Dubai, Buenos Aires, Stockholm and Barcelona all deserve the same quality of information, with genuine local knowledge behind it. We think at a global scale and earn trust at a local level.
What we stand for
Trust is everything
We earn authority through accuracy and consistency. Every profile and every piece of editorial either builds or erodes trust. We choose quality over speed, always.
Serve the whole ecosystem
Padel is more than a sport played on courts. We build for club operators, coaches, brands, builders and players, not just the most visible.
Global perspective, local substance
We think at scale but earn respect locally. Every city, every club and every Spotlight should contain something you can only get by going deep.
Raise the standard
Padel’s growth is outpacing its infrastructure. The industry deserves better tools, better information and a platform as good as the sport itself.
One platform. The whole padel ecosystem.
Whether you are looking for somewhere to play in a new city, a coach to train with or a business partner for your next project, it is all in one place.

Meet the team
Jamie Rowe
Founder
Jamie discovered padel after moving to Barcelona and experienced first-hand how the sport connects people across backgrounds and borders. That observation became World Padel Network. His background is in digital marketing and operations and growth, with experience at a global pharmaceutical company based in London and at an award-winning digital marketing agency in the US. His favourite shot is the lob, the only shot he can hit (somewhat) consistently.
