These are the structures that represent the most risk in the long term to make their investment profitable.

Currently there are some 100% tracks padel that work well like the big padel de Mérignac or the casa padel in Paris because they offer a quality infrastructure and have indoor tracks while tennis clubs offer outdoor.

However, if we look ahead and look at the Madison study done in Spain in 2014, practice in these centers can be a real danger.

When we analyze this graph, we see that the predominant motivation to play is the price, then there is the location of the land and the quality of the facilities.

The price can be a long-term brake for the practice, the tennis clubs generally offer more advantageous prices.

Then, the development of the tracks will be done more and more in the tennis clubs, so there will be clubs which will be more and more accessible for the practitioners and therefore a clientele less and less interested in qualitative structures such as pure padel.

In the long run, the market could potentially switch to tennis clubs.
