About TopTier Padel
Our founder Alejandro grew up in Spain, where padel was already part of everyday sporting life, before attending school in the UK, where sport was central to the daily routine but padel was nowhere to be found. That contrast became the starting point for TopTier Padel.
UK schools & clubs
Facilities, land, and sporting communities already existed — just missing the right game.
Spain
A beloved sport baked into friendships, families, clubs, and community.
The idea
That contrast is what sparked TopTier Padel. By partnering directly with schools, universities, and sports clubs, we set out to bring the energy of Spanish padel into UK institutions already primed for it.
Our philosophy is simple: padel should be easy to access, easy to enjoy, and easy for host sites to offer. The host provides suitable space; TopTier Padel handles the funding, development, management, and maintenance behind the scenes.
The team
TopTier Padel brings together padel experience, operational focus, and a clear belief that the sport can become part of everyday life at schools, universities, and sports clubs across the UK.
Founder & CEO
Born and raised in Spain, Alejandro founded TopTier Padel out of a love for the sport and a belief that padel can grow meaningfully across the UK. He advises a padel club in South London and was hired to manage the initial setup for a padel club in Lincolnshire, giving him direct market experience and strong industry relationships.
Director of Operations
Joe is a creative strategist and consultant with experience across executive recruitment, business development, international education, and the padel sector. At TopTier Padel, he supports operations, site development, and partner relationships, helping turn promising locations into practical club opportunities.
