About
<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Set within 37 acres of sporting facilities in the heart of West Sussex, <strong>East Grinstead Sports Club (EGSC)</strong> has long been a hub for fitness, competition, and community. In <strong>Spring 2025</strong>, the club added a landmark new chapter to its story by unveiling <strong>four covered padel courts</strong>—ensuring year-round play regardless of weather, and firmly establishing EGSC as one of the South East’s leading multi-sport destinations.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The padel project was spearheaded by <strong>Richard Leman</strong>, former Great Britain Olympic hockey gold medallist and passionate advocate for grassroots sport. The official launch was marked by a celebratory event attended by <strong>LTA President Sandi Procter</strong>, reflecting both the club’s ambition and its alignment with the national governing body’s vision to grow padel in the UK.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>EGSC’s padel offering is built on the club’s founding principles: <strong>accessibility, inclusivity, and community engagement</strong>. Whether you are an absolute beginner taking your first steps on court, a family seeking an active and social pastime, or a seasoned competitor looking for structured matchplay, the venue provides opportunities to play, learn, and connect. A full programme of <strong>coaching, leagues, tournaments, and social sessions</strong> has been developed to ensure there is something for everyone.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Beyond sport, the club recognises its role in fostering wellbeing and social cohesion. The padel courts complement a wide array of existing amenities across the 37-acre site—including rugby, hockey, squash, gym, and fitness spaces—making EGSC a true multi-sport hub. The addition of padel has already started to attract new audiences, expanding the reach of the club while strengthening ties with the <strong>local schools, charities, and community groups</strong> it partners with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>For players, the covered courts are a particular draw, offering protection from rain and wind while maintaining an outdoor feel. Floodlighting allows for extended evening play, and the integration with EGSC’s professional coaching team ensures quality experiences from the outset. The atmosphere is welcoming yet competitive, with members and Pay & Play visitors equally encouraged to take part.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As padel continues its rapid rise in the UK, East Grinstead Sports Club stands out as a beacon of <strong>innovation, inclusivity, and excellence</strong>. By blending Olympic leadership, world-class facilities, and a deep community spirit, EGSC Padel is poised to inspire the next generation of players and cement its place as a flagship venue for the sport in the South East.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
