The concept

From playing padel to being a member of a padel club.

We are currently developing this concept. Below we explain how we see a padel club working: with fixed training sessions, a fixed free play slot, grouping by level and the chance to progress.

We believe padel is ready for its next step.

Padel has grown enormously in Belgium. Today you can book a court almost anywhere and play with friends. That's great.

But for anyone who wants to practise padel as a real sport, we believe a structured pathway is often missing.

We want to create that pathway.

01

Train

Two fixed training sessions a week, with a coach and a settled group.

02

Play

Free play every week with players of a similar level.

03

Improve

Raise your level and progress within the club.

04

Compete

Ladder, tournaments, club competition and eventually interclub.

From booking a court to a real sports club.

You book a court. You look for three other players. You play. And next week it starts all over again.

Want to improve? You might sign up for a block of five or eight lessons.

But what comes after that?

We think there is room for more.

One-off bookings and short lesson blocks work perfectly well for many players. There's nothing wrong with that, and existing clubs do good work.

Het Padel Legioen is for players who want more structure: training regularly, playing with people of a similar level, playing matches and knowing where they can grow within the sport.

Not separate lessons. A full season.

Het Padel Legioen works like a classic sports club: a fixed programme, a settled group and a season with a start and a finish.

2 training sessions per week

  • Every session lasts two hours.
  • Players are grouped by level.
  • You train with the same group throughout the season.

1 free play slot per week

  • A fixed slot to play freely within the club.
  • You don't have to find three players yourself every week.
  • You play at a level that suits you.

Competition and club life

  • Ladder competition, club ranking and internal tournaments.
  • Social activities, club teams and the possibility of interclub.
  • Room to progress for anyone looking for more of a challenge.

You're not signing up for 8 lessons. You're joining for a season.

Het Padel Legioen is meant for people who want to give padel a fixed place in their week.

You get more than coaching: a group, fixed playing hours, competition and the chance to grow within the sport.

Play with people who match your level.

Beginner
Recreational
Advanced
Competitive

You don't have to be an experienced player. You start at your own level and get the chance to improve.

The final method for grouping players by level is still being worked out.

From recreational player to competitor.

  2. 02Train
  3. 03Free play
  4. 04Club ranking
  5. 05Tournaments
  6. 06Interclub
  7. 07Competition

Not everyone wants to play competition. That's absolutely fine.

But anyone who wants to improve and play matches needs somewhere to grow towards.

A club is more than the courts you play on.

Het Padel Legioen isn't only about playing padel. It's about being part of a group.

You know your fellow players. You know your level. You train together. You play together. And when you play competition, you represent your club.

  • Legioen members
  • Legioen teams
  • Legioen ranking
  • Legioen tournaments

We start with one club.

The first goal is simple: build a strong club where people enjoy training, playing and coming back.

In the longer term we want to contribute to a padel culture in which players can move from recreational play to competition and in which clubs meet each other regularly.

If that works, something much bigger can grow from it.

We're not building a new padel hall. We're building a club.

Belgium already has plenty of padel infrastructure today.

That's why we want to work together with existing padel centres and put our energy into what we believe is still missing: a strong club structure around the players.

We are currently exploring different partnerships with existing padel centres. As soon as a partnership is confirmed, we will communicate about it.

Everyone who wants to take padel seriously.

I've just started.

I want to learn the sport properly and play regularly.

I play recreationally.

I already play regularly and want to improve.

I play often.

I want more structure, more challenge and players at my level.

I want to play competition.

I want to train with a goal and play matches.

Do you want to be there from the start?

Het Padel Legioen does not yet exist as a fully operational club. We are currently developing the concept.

That's why we first want to know how many players are genuinely waiting for this.
