The Client
Padel, football and golf under one roof
Sportpark Erkelenz offers padel courts in Erkelenz as part of a multi-sport hall on Neusser Straße. The venue also combines padel with indoor football and golf. In addition, it hosts birthday parties, company events and team days. As a result, it has become a popular meeting point for sport and leisure in the region.
The Challenge
No load-bearing concrete floor
The owners wanted padel to become a central part of their sports hall. However, the existing floor was not a load-bearing concrete slab. Consequently, conventional anchoring systems such as expansion anchors or chemical dowels could not secure the courts safely. Older sports halls often have this problem, because they usually have poured asphalt on top, with gravel or a standard screed underneath. At the same time, point or strip foundations would have meant higher costs and a second construction site inside the hall.
The Solution
The No-Anchor-Kit for Mod. BASIC
PadelCreations therefore supplied and installed Mod. BASIC courts with our No-Anchor-Kit: three doubles courts and one singles court. Instead of anchoring into the floor, two stabilisation rings, one at the top and one at the bottom, work together with an entrance plate to keep each court stable. In addition, no steel plates around the court and no foundation work are required. Thanks to this, the installation was simple, clean and fast.
Good to know
Importantly, the No-Anchor-Kit is available exclusively for Mod. BASIC. By contrast, our Panoramic PRO court requires anchoring on point foundations. For this reason, we recommend checking the floor structure early in every project, for example with old building documents or a test drilling.
Easy to book
Players book online through Eversports or by phone. Because of the flexible opening hours, the courts also suit after-work games, training and events.
The Result
A multi-sport destination in Erkelenz
Today, padel is one of the main attractions at Sportpark Erkelenz. Above all, the combination of padel, football and golf makes the venue unique in the region. Moreover, the project proves that an older hall floor is no obstacle to padel.
Four courts, zero loading anchors, and padel made simple in an older hall.
