The  open matches  / free slots (or open matches) are imposed as the  most profitable booking format  for padel clubs, but their success remains limited to  most mature markets As  United Kingdom , the  Spain  or  France .

A very different distribution depending on the country

In countries where padel is still in the implementation phase (such as  Mexico , the  Indonesia  (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and the  South Africa ), the vast majority of income comes from  classic reservations between players  :

  •  Mexico  : 90% of revenue comes from private bookings
  •  South Africa  : 85%
  •  Germany  : 81%

Conversely, in more advanced European countries, we observe a  more marked diversification  :

  • En  Spain , 25% of revenue comes from open matches
  • En  France , 15%
  • Au  United Kingdom , 8%

Average tickets that vary greatly

The  open matches , although less frequent, are  more profitable per hour  for clubs:
Mean :  € 30 per hour  salary.  28 €  for classic reservations.

Le  United Kingdom  stands out with a very high hourly rate for open matches:  65 € , in front of  Mexico  ( 49 € ) and the Germany  ( 48 € ).

The average ticket is even higher in the  leagues  et  tournaments , Along with:

  •  55 €  on average for leagues (up to  125 € in the UK )
  •  56 €  for tournaments (up to  71 € in Germany )

Academies, a complementary model

Another important source of income:  courses and training at the academy , especially developed in:

  • Le  United Kingdom  (75 €/h)
  • The  Indonesia  (54 €/h)
  • The  Germany  (44 €/h)

Conversely, in  Spain  and  France , prices remain moderate around  30 € / h .

If you feel like you want to take the  classic reservations  still dominate emerging markets,  open matches , the  leagues  and the  academies  become  strategic revenue sources  in mature markets. This model promotes player loyalty, club activity... and higher profitability.
