LONDON - s4story -- Playskan, a London-based startup, has launched a new online platform that helps padel players quickly find and book courts across the UK.

As padel continues its rapid rise in Britain, securing court time has become an increasingly common frustration. Availability is scattered across a growing number of apps and booking systems, with clubs using platforms such as Playtomic, Padel Mates, MATCHi, ClubSpark, MyCourts, and Nettla. Players are often forced to check multiple systems just to find a single available slot. For regulars, this is a recurring inconvenience. For newcomers, it can be a barrier to trying the sport at all.

Playskan addresses this by aggregating real-time court availability from multiple providers into one simple, easy-to-use view — and the service is completely free for players.

"Padel is one of the fastest-growing sports in the UK, but booking can be a frustrating process," says Henri Happonen, co-founder of Playskan. "We built Playskan to give players one simple place to find and book courts in seconds – think Skyscanner, but for padel."

Co-founder Sara Farzanehfar adds: "Our mission is to make padel more accessible for everyone. By helping players easily discover local clubs and compare availability, we hope to support the growth of the sport at both grassroots and competitive levels."

Players can search by location, browse available slots for the next 14 days, and compare clubs on factors such as pricing and accessibility. Playskan is currently live across multiple UK cities, with an ongoing rollout to bring comprehensive nationwide coverage to players in every region.

The launch comes at a pivotal moment for British padel. The sport has seen explosive growth, with hundreds of new courts opening across the country in recent years — yet no single booking solution has existed to match that expansion. Playskan aims to fill that gap, making padel as easy to book as a flight.
