Amiens is preparing to welcome a new innovative padel complex, Amiens Padel, with the opening planned for the first half of 2025. This project, led by five passionate partners, aims to meet growing demand in the metropolis. Pierre Damette, one of the founding partners, presents this ambitious initiative to us.

The history of the project

Project Amiens Padel was born from a simple observation: “the existing padel offer in Amiens is insufficient in the face of a rapidly expanding practice". Pierre Damette Explain : “We were having trouble booking slots to play with friends. The idea of ​​creating a specialized complex came naturally.”
Made up of five partners, three of whom are already entrepreneurs, the group is organized around the skills of each: administrative management, financing, BtoB development, monitoring of works and operational management. One team at a time complete and complementary to complete this project.
