In Sweden, padel is booming. In a country that will have the chance to organize a tournament of the main circuit of the world padel tour in Bastad, padel courts are growing like spruces!
Niklas Carlson and Gustav Djurberg decided to follow the trend and offer padel on the small island of Lidingo east of Stockholm city centre.
Their project is completely crazy, they will put 4 padel courts on the city's outdoor ice rink all summer long. The courts will be uninstalled on September 2nd and moved to a city warehouse to allow the ice rink to regain its original use.
Demand is so strong in this area that they expect to get a very good fill rate during the summer months.
Who said the Swedes only practice winter sports?
