How Much Does It Cost?

At the time of writing (July 2026), court hire is €43.60 off-peak (10am–3pm Mon–Thu, 9am–3pm Fri) and €49.05 peak (evenings and weekends) per court per hour. Split between four players that works out around €11–€13 each. Racket rental is €5 per player if you don't have your own yet, and balls are sold on site.

How to Book

PTI runs its own booking system rather than Playtomic — book through the booking grid on padeltennisireland.ie or the free “Padel Tennis Ireland” app on iOS and Android. Evening and weekend slots go fastest, so book a few days ahead for peak times.

New to Padel? Start with Social Padel

PTI's Social Padel sessions run twice a week — Wednesdays 10am–12pm and Sundays 3pm–5pm — at €25 per person including all equipment and refreshments. You don't need a partner or any experience; the rules are explained on the day and players are mixed across the group. It's the easiest way in Cork to try the sport. There's also private and group coaching, kids' camps in the holidays, and padel parties for groups.

What to Bring

Non-marking court shoes, sportswear, and — once you're hooked — your own racket. Renting is perfect for a first visit, but at €5 a session it pays for itself quickly: our starter kits bundle a beginner racket, balls, grip and protector from €79.95, delivered free anywhere in Cork.
