This weeks Insider 22 IRL Meet-Up in Barcelona was a reminder of what this community is all about — bringing together the people building the future of padel + emerging racquet sports across clubs, brands, tech, investment and infrastructure.

From operators and founders to partners and suppliers, it was great to see so many conversations happening in one room during week. The best part of Insider 22 has always been the relationships, ideas and collaborations that come from getting the right people together.

A big thank you to our sponsors,  and for helping make the evening possible.

And thank you to everyone who joined us — we’re looking forward to hosting more gatherings like this as the Insider 22 community continues to grow globally.

We’re welcoming Scott Marshall to Insider 22 for an upcoming Q&A on one of the biggest questions in padel right now: what lenders actually want to see.

With 25+ years in financial services, property lending, and development finance (founder of Roma Finance, Angel on Property Elevator), Scott brings a unique perspective on funding long-term growth in racquet sports.

We’ll discuss:
→ What lenders actually look for before funding new padel courts
→ Long-term viability in racquet sports infrastructure
→ Financing models for clubs and facilities
→ How the investment conversation around padel is evolving

An important conversation as the industry continues to mature.

Everyone puts out a funding announcement. Most get ignored.

When closed their $9M raise, we knew the coverage wouldn’t come from sending a press release. It would come from having a story worth telling.

We built one idea: this wasn’t a company raising money. It was the U.S. padel market shifting.

In one week: Fortune, Sports Business Journal (twice), South Florida Business Journal, Boardroom, Athletech News, F**t Insider.

22 placements in total.
All earned, none paid.

The right story, taken to the right people.

That’s Padel 22. If you’ve got a story worth telling, let’s talk.

Padel’s first appearance on this list in 25 years.

And that matters — not because of the award,
but because of what it represents.

For the past few years, we’ve been helping bring padel to audiences that didn’t even know it existed —
into conversations with mainstream media, investors, and brands,
often before people knew where it fit.

This moment feels like a shift.

The 2025 Sport Industry Awards feel like the point where padel starts to find its place in the wider sports ecosystem.

Still so much to do.
This is just the beginning.

See many friends and colleagues in London tonight.

What makes a padel competition actually work?

Not just for players — but for fans, partners, and long-term growth.

On May 6th, we’re hosting a live Q&A with Astrid Thams, Commercial Managing Director of the Hexagon Cup.

From global experience at NBA, NFL, Real Madrid and Adidas to helping shape one of the most ambitious formats in padel — this is a conversation focused on the bigger picture:

→ building sustainable competitions
→ growing audiences + partners
→ connecting amateur and pro pathways
→ creating formats that actually last

Because padel doesn’t just need more tournaments.

It needs better ones.

Join us inside Insider 22 for this Q+A. Link in bio.

5 myths - holding brands back.

Most people still think PR is just press releases.

It’s not.

PR has shifted — from push to pull.
From sending news… to building narratives.

In today’s landscape, it’s about:
→ creating content that actually engages
→ building relationships, not just coverage
→ positioning your brand in the right conversations
→ and getting in front of the audiences that matter

And importantly — it’s not just for big brands.

In emerging industries like padel, PR is one of the most powerful ways to build credibility, visibility, and trust… early.

It’s also measurable.
And it definitely doesn’t happen overnight.

Good PR compounds.

That’s what turns it from a tactic…
into one of the strongest long-term assets a business can have.

We often talk about infrastructure.
Court counts.
Investment.
Market expansion.

But the real engine behind padel’s rise isn’t concrete — it’s connection.

Four people on a court.
Walls that extend rallies.
A format built for conversation between points.
And points that often involve all four (unless you're put "in the fridge").

Padel reduces friction to entry — socially and technically.

That’s why it spreads.

Not because it’s the newest racquet sport.
But because it’s the most socially scalable one.

When people feel connected, they return.
When they return, they bring others.
And that’s how a sport compounds.

The question isn’t just how many courts a city has.

It’s how strong the communities are around them.

What do you think is padel’s biggest growth driver right now — infrastructure or intimacy?
