Ignite Padel Cheshire Oaks

Ignite Padel’s Cheshire Oaks club occupies Unit B2 on Deans Road in Ellesmere Port, a short hop from the designer outlet. Opened in September 2025, it packs seven courts into the site: five indoor crystal courts plus two full-cover courts for all-weather play. Court time runs from 8am to midnight daily through Playtomic on a pay-and-play basis, with academy coaching, lessons and americano events on the calendar. Off court there’s a licensed bar and coffee shop showing live sport, a retail store, snack options, free parking and WiFi.

New to padel? What you need for your first session

Most UK padel venues hire rackets by the hour, so you do not need to buy anything before your first game. Check this club’s booking page for hire availability and prices.

Once you have played a few times and want your own kit, this is the order we would buy in.

• Court shoes first. Clubs hire rackets, they do not hire shoes, and running trainers slide on padel courts. This is the single purchase that most improves your first month. See our best padel shoes for UK players.
• Then a racket. Once your technique has settled you will know whether you want control or power. Start with our best beginner padel rackets, or read how to choose your first padel racket.
• Balls last. Most clubs provide balls for casual sessions. When you start playing regularly, see our best padel balls for UK courts.
