The Client
A traditional sports club with an eye on the future
TSV Ötlingen is a multi-sport club in Kirchheim unter Teck, near Stuttgart. Its tennis department has four clay courts and has been part of club life for generations.
Seeing the growing interest in padel, the department decided to add the sport to its grounds. It wanted to attract new members, give existing players a fresh challenge and take part in the regional padel league.
The Challenge
Bringing padel to an established tennis club
TSV Ötlingen’s tennis department wanted to add padel to its club grounds in Kirchheim unter Teck. The new sport had to work alongside the existing tennis courts and attract new members. The priorities:
- Padel courts integrated into the existing tennis facility.
- A first phase of two courts, with room to expand as demand grew.
- A durable outdoor solution for intensive club use.
- Courts suitable for members, beginners and league play.
- One shared online booking system for tennis and padel.
The Solution
From two to four courts
PadelCreations supplied 4 Padel Courts Mod. PREMIUM SEP-A for Windzone 1 in Germany, installed next to the club’s four clay tennis courts. After a successful start with two courts, the club expanded to four.
Built for club life
Members book tennis and padel through the same online system. That makes padel an easy part of everyday club life, from social games and training to competitive matches.
The Result
A tennis club that plays padel
Padel quickly became a firm part of TSV Ötlingen. The club now fields a men’s team in the Padel Liga Baden-Württemberg and hosts league match days on its own courts.
Four clay courts. Four padel courts. One club.
