Plans have been submitted to Westmorland and Furness council to build “The Box Padel Club” – a new destination bringing one of the world’s fastest-growing sports to Penrith, alongside opportunities for businesses to lease adjoining fitness and industrial spaces.
The proposed development by the owner of AST signs on the Gilwilly Industrial Estate will includes three purpose-built padel courts, two pickleball courts, a clubhouse, an adjoining 5,400 sq ft fitness space, an additional 4,800 sq ft industrial unit and four public EV charging points..
Subject to planning approval, the company says it’s aiming to open The Box Padel Club in Spring/Summer 2027.
Designed to make padel, good coffee and nourishing food an easy part of the working day, The Box Padel Club will be somewhere to fit in an early morning game, see a professional padel coach, meet colleagues over coffee, refuel after training or enjoy a sociable lunch with friends.
As part of the companies commitment to the local community, free time on the padel courts will also be offered to local schools and charities.
“The Box Padel Club has been a long time in the making, so it’s exciting to finally submit our plans.” – Mark Aston, Managing Director of AST signs.
