Outdoor padel courts
Chapel Allerton Lawn Tennis, Squash & Gym Club has 2 outdoor courts on artificial grass surface. Outdoor padel is a great experience in good weather — courts feel more spacious and sessions under open sky have a different energy to indoor play. That said, outdoor courts are weather-dependent, so it's worth checking conditions before booking, particularly in autumn and winter. Many outdoor venues floodlight their courts for evening sessions.
