Outdoor panoramic court · in partnership with Coral Leisure.
◆ About
Padel arrives in County Monaghan.
The team
01Passion
We love padel — the easiest racket sport to pick up, the hardest to walk away from. The sport was taking off everywhere we looked, and Monaghan didn't have a court yet. So we built one.
02Mission
WePadel is built and run by locals who play the game. The aim is simple: bring the sport home, and get more people in Monaghan on the court, more often.
03Invitation
In partnership with Coral Leisure Monaghan, our outdoor panoramic court welcomes newcomers and seasoned players alike — drop in, learn fast, play often.

◆ How to Play
Padel in 60 seconds.
Padel is a doubles racket sport played on an enclosed court. Easier to pick up than tennis, more dynamic than squash.
▢
The Court
Enclosed glass walls. 10m × 20m doubles court. The walls are in play.
Padel courts are 10m × 20m, fully enclosed by glass and mesh walls. Like squash, you can play balls off the walls. Two players per side, always doubles.
▾
The Scoring
Tennis scoring. 15 / 30 / 40 / game. Best of three sets.
Padel uses standard tennis scoring — 15, 30, 40, game — with sets played first to six games and a tiebreak at 6-6. Serves are underarm and bounced before being struck.
◈
The Gear
Smaller, solid paddle. Slightly lower-pressure ball. Loaners on-site.
Padel paddles are smaller than tennis racquets, solid (no strings), and perforated. The ball is similar to a tennis ball but with slightly lower internal pressure. Rackets and balls available at reception.
↗
The Serve
Underarm only. Bounce first, then strike — diagonal into the opposite box.
Every serve is underarm: bounce the ball once on your side, strike below waist height, and land it cross-court inside the diagonal service box. Two attempts, exactly like tennis.
▥
The Walls
Glass and mesh walls are in play. Defend, recover, attack off them.
Unlike tennis, the walls are part of the game. After the ball bounces on your floor, you can let it rebound off your own back glass and play it on the way out — defensive shots otherwise impossible become routine.
◯
One-Bounce Rule
Ball must bounce on the floor before it ever touches a wall.
If an opponent's shot hits your wall before bouncing on your floor, the point is yours. The ball has to bounce on your side first; from there, walls are fair play on the way out.
⊘
No Volley on Return
Returner can't volley the serve. Let it bounce, then play.
The first return of every point must be played off the bounce — no volleys on the serve return. From that shot on, volleys are not just legal but how points are usually won at the net.
△
Out of Bounds
Over the cage is out. Off your own wall back across is still in.
A ball that clears the perimeter cage is out. But once your shot lands in their court, it can rebound off their walls — that's still in. The walls are the opponent's problem to read.
═
Sets & Tie-breaks
First to six games wins a set. At 6–6, a tiebreak to seven decides it.
Standard tennis scoring across sets — win by two games. If a set reaches 6–6, a 7-point tiebreak settles it. Matches are best of three sets.
