Padel Courts
This autumn, the London Cancer Hub is proud to unveil Sutton’s first padel courts, bringing a new dimension of wellbeing and community engagement to the campus. Located adjacent to the Innovation Gateway, the 4 covered courts are designed to support both tenant wellbeing and wider social impact goals.
Developed in partnership with Social Sports Society, the padel courts offer a unique opportunity for tenants, researchers, and local residents to connect through sport. Whether you're looking to unwind after a day in the lab or host a friendly match with colleagues, the courts provide a vibrant and inclusive space for recreation.
The temporary facility, which will be in place for up to seven years, is designed to evolve alongside the wider, long-term development of the London Cancer Hub and is built from sustainable materials, including reclaimed wood.
Booking & Access
The courts are now open for bookings, with play available from 1st October 2025. Residents with proof of a local postcode, alongside London Cancer Hub staff and patients, are eligible for discounted rates, which can be accessed via the online booking portal.
➡️ Players are now able to book a court and coaching by downloading the Playtomic booking app and using the club search function to select 'S3 Padel Sutton': https://app.playtomic.com/?utm_source=web-2025
