Last night, something special happened in London 🇬🇧🎾 Together with Racketeer , we officially kicked off a partnership built on a shared belief: the future of padel is community. Hundreds of people came together to play, share experiences, and discover what makes this sport so unique, both on and off the court. At Playtomic, we’ve always believed that technology should do more than help you book a court. It should help you find the right people to play with, create new connections, and make every match the start of something bigger. That’s exactly what we experienced yesterday. A huge thank you to the incredible Racketeer team for bringing this vision to life, and to everyone who joined us and made the evening so memorable. This is just the beginning of what we’ll build together 💙🙌🏻
The launch event also featured a one-point tournament with a £1,000 prize, the World’s Longest Rally Challenge, live entertainment, food and beverage offerings, and a watch party for England’s World Cup match, creating a broader social experience beyond on-court competition.
“This partnership is a natural fit because we share the same vision for the future of padel,” said Pablo Carro, co-founder of Playtomic. “Playtomic helps players find the right court and the right people to play with, while Racketeer creates the kind of welcoming, community-driven environment where those connections can grow.”
Racketeer co-founder Stephanie McCaffrey said the partnership combines technology with in-person experiences to make it easier for players to meet others and become part of a local padel community.
The companies said the launch represents the first phase of a broader collaboration that will continue to develop experiences combining technology, hospitality and community engagement as interest in padel continues to grow.
Playtomic operates a global booking and community platform for padel, tennis and pickleball, serving more than 4.7 million players across over 6,500 partner clubs in 66 countries.
