3 Clubs to play Padel at in Cornwall? Stop the bus! Particularly if that bus is stopping anywhere near Heron Tennis Centre.
Heron Tennis Centre has been on the map since 2004 and approaching 20 years later it has done what it said on its own tin, become established and successful. With almost 1000 members, half a dozen coaches, 10 tennis courts, social areas and teams’ competition in Cornwall’s Premier League this is a booming place for tennis of all forms played by all ages.
This is also a club of firsts, the first padel court in Cornwall to have floodlights we believe and whilst it is only a temporary court or a pop up on an existing tennis court, we think there will be more to come from Padel in this corner of Newquay.
