The Padel Hub in Fleet, Hampshire (Unit 3, Beacon Hill Logistics Park) has launched a new tournament called Padel Wars to encourage more people to try the growing sport. The competition began on 28 January 2026 and is organised by Padel Hub UK.
The event is open to all skill levels, with categories including Mixed Social, men’s and women’s Intermediate, and an Elite “Wars” bracket. Matches are being played at the Fleet facility (Unit 3, Beacon Hill Logistics Park), which the organisers say features six indoor courts.
The tournament uses a format designed to give players plenty of court time: social-level matches use a round-robin format to maximise playtime, with single-elimination for the semi-finals and finals. Regional qualifiers are expected to run through early February, with the finals scheduled for late March.
Padel is a racket sport similar to a mix of tennis and squash and is almost always played in doubles. The tournament aims to make the sport more accessible to the local community amid rapid national growth in padel participation — the LTA reported over 1,000 padel courts and around 400,000 players in 2025.
Players looking for booking and entry details should consult Padel Hub UK’s official channels or contact the Fleet venue directly to confirm schedules, categories and court availability.
