Booking
Our two padel courts are available to non-members for play, normally doubles, at various times on weekdays and weekends. An individual visitor can use our Clubspark Padel @ West Worthing Club website to check availability within a window of up to one week ahead. At any one time, one court can be booked for up to 90 minutes play and a card payment is taken as part of the booking process. If no suitable courts are available when you go online, please give us a call on 01903 247270 or email info@wwc.org.uk and we will see if any alternatives can be found.
The courts are also available for exclusive hire by local schools and other community groups or organisations, companies & clubs; please contact the Club Manager at manager@wwc.org.uk to arrange.
There is no maximum to the number of times that a visitor can Pay & Play but we hope that visitors will wish to join the Club as a member and enjoy the additional benefits of Club Membership.
