About Us
The company was founded in 2012, born from the dream of two friends who were passionate about racket sports and had the ambition to invest in a sport that did not yet have the impact it has today in Portugal: padel, under the name Padelpro.
The first club, Nacional Padel, was built in 2013 from an old swimming pool and basketball court. Demand and the number of players increased, and the sport was no longer unique to the company, integrating tennis, soccer, and an innovative fitness concept into the clubs. An investment was made to open more clubs, with five self-managed clubs between Lisbon, Cascais, Évora, and Charneca da Caparica, and a club in partnership in Tróia.
As the company evolved, the initial name no longer made sense, and the brand name was changed to Rackets Pro, as racket sports continue to be the main focus.
From the skills acquired in running our own clubs and the needs we have identified, two new brands have been created, Sports Solutions and Rackets Pro Tennis Holidays, which provide services in the construction and maintenance of sports facilities, marketing and representation of sports brands, and sports holidays. In addition, club and academy management and event organisation are core activities that have been developed over time and remain part of the brand that gives the group its name, Rackets Pro.
The Group's goal is to provide solutions for all issues related to racket sports, from the construction and maintenance of courts, to teaching, social and official competitions, vacations, as well as the marketing of equipment that enables the practice of sports.
We want to be a national and international benchmark, working daily on an ambitious project that also aims to contribute to a healthier lifestyle for the population and provide the enjoyment of racket sports in a democratised and accessible way for all.
Mission
We believe that sport transforms lives. Because we believe in the fantastic effect of the experience we provide our customers. Because racket sports have unique social attributes.
