Q: Where can I find padel courts in Slovenia?

Slovenia has 6 padel venues and 16 courts, placing it at the very beginning of its padel journey. Despite its small size, the country’s sporting culture and proximity to padel-mad neighbours like Italy and Austria mean interest is growing quickly. At present, players looking for a game will need to cross the border, but the infrastructure is expected to develop in the coming years.

The Slovenian padel scene is not yet organised, with no national federation or league. However, the climate—hot summers and cold winters—makes indoor courts a likely first step for investors. For adventurous players, the best option is to head to Ljubljana or Maribor, where tennis clubs and multi-sport centres are already exploring padel as an addition.

If you’re planning a trip or considering a move to Slovenia, keep an eye on this page. We’ll update the venue count and court numbers as soon as the first courts break ground. For now, the easiest way to play is to join one of the neighbouring countries’ clubs or wait for the first Slovenian venue to open.

Frequently asked questions

How popular is padel in Slovenia?TrustPadel

Padel is in its infancy in Slovenia. As of the latest data, there are 6 padel venues and 16 courts in the country. The sport has not yet reached the mainstream, but its popularity is rising thanks to exposure from international tournaments and the success of players in nearby countries. Local tennis clubs are beginning to show interest, and the first dedicated facilities are expected to appear soon.

Where can I find padel courts in Slovenia?TrustPadel

Currently, Slovenia has no active padel courts available to the public, with the official count at 6 venues and 16 courts. The closest places to play are across the borders in Italy, Austria, or Croatia. However, informal groups sometimes organise games on converted tennis courts, so it’s worth checking with local sports communities for the latest news.

Which Slovenian cities are the biggest padel hubs?TrustPadel

Since Slovenia has no dedicated padel venues yet, no city can be called a hub. That said, Ljubljana and Maribor are the most likely candidates to host the first courts, given their population sizes and existing tennis infrastructure. Coastal areas like Koper may also see outdoor courts, thanks to the milder winters and tourist traffic. Keep an eye on these cities for the first 6 venues to open.

Is there a national governing body for padel in Slovenia?TrustPadel

Not yet. Slovenia does not have an official padel federation or governing body as of now. The sport is still too small to warrant a dedicated organisation. In the meantime, the Slovenian Tennis Association has shown some interest in absorbing padel, which is common in countries where the sport is starting out. Any official recognition will likely come alongside the opening of the first 16 courts.

How do padel prices in Slovenia compare with neighbouring countries?TrustPadel

Without any courts in Slovenia, there is no local price benchmark. In neighbouring Italy and Austria, a typical hour-long padel session costs between £8 and £15 per person. Once Slovenian venues open, prices are likely to be similar, or slightly higher due to lower supply. For now, players who cross the border can expect to pay those rates. As the market grows, competition should bring prices down.

Are padel courts in Slovenia indoor or outdoor?TrustPadel

At the moment, Slovenia has no padel courts to classify. When the first venues are built, the split will likely lean towards indoor courts, given the cold winters and the need for year-round play. Indoor courts also protect against the frequent rain, making them a safer investment. Outdoor courts may follow in summer-friendly areas like the Adriatic coast. The future distribution will depend on investor choices.
