Quality padel balls for UK clubs and players. Training balls for regular use and competition balls for tournaments. Bulk supply available with club pricing.
Not all padel balls are the same, and choosing the right type matters for both performance and economics. Training balls and competition balls serve different purposes. Understanding when to use each type helps clubs optimise their ball budget whilst maintaining appropriate quality for different contexts.
Most clubs use predominantly training balls for regular rental play, coaching, and practice, reserving competition balls for tournaments, league matches, and advanced player sessions. This approach balances cost management with providing quality equipment where it matters most.
We supply both training and competition balls with bulk pricing for clubs. Whether you're a small club needing a few dozen balls monthly or a large venue requiring hundreds of balls, we provide reliable supply with transparent pricing.

Practical guidance on choosing the right ball type for different situations.
Factors that affect ball performance and lifespan.
Padel balls are pressurised and react to temperature changes. Cold weather reduces bounce and makes balls feel heavier. Warm weather increases bounce and can make balls feel livelier. Store balls at moderate temperature before use for consistent performance.
Ball pressure is affected by altitude. UK clubs at sea level don't need altitude-specific balls, but if you're playing at elevation or notice balls feeling overly pressurised, this might be relevant. Standard pressurised balls work for all UK conditions.
Padel balls lose pressure over time once opened. Training balls typically last 3-6 hours of play before bounce degrades noticeably. Competition balls may show performance drop after 2-4 hours. Replace balls when bounce becomes inconsistent or felt shows significant wear.
How we work with clubs on regular ball supply and volume pricing.
Volume pricing makes regular ball supply affordable for clubs. Order 5+ dozen for bulk rates, 10+ dozen for better pricing, 25+ dozen for our best club pricing. We work with clubs to establish regular supply schedules aligned to your usage patterns.
Clubs can arrange regular delivery schedules rather than ad-hoc ordering. Monthly or quarterly ball deliveries ensure you never run short and simplify club procurement. We coordinate delivery around your needs, not ours.
Many clubs order both training and competition balls. Common mix is 80% training balls for regular use, 20% competition balls for tournaments and advanced sessions. We can supply mixed orders with overall bulk pricing applied to total volume.
Proper storage extends ball lifespan and maintains performance. Follow these guidelines for clubs storing bulk ball inventory:
