ALL IN PADEL to open Saint-Quentin club in 2027

ALL IN PADEL is continuing its expansion strategy in France and has announced the opening of a new venue in Saint-Quentin for January 2027. The planned club in the Aisne area represents more than a single opening. It is already the brand’s third announced project within a short period, underlining the speed of its national rollout. The company’s objective is to establish padel as a consistently accessible sport across multiple regions while maintaining the same quality standards from one facility to the next.

Scaling with a precise location strategy

From an infrastructure perspective, Saint-Quentin is a logical choice. The new complex is expected to be built in the Auchan commercial zone in Fayet, an area with strong accessibility, high traffic and direct proximity to leisure and service activities. For the operator, that positioning matters because it supports repeat use in everyday life: after work, on weekends and in group settings. At the same time, the project targets a catchment area that has not yet had a fully padel-dedicated large-format venue of this type.

ALL IN PADEL belongs to ALL IN GROUP, founded by Thierry Ascione and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Since launching its first center in Lyon-Décines in 2021, the network has expanded steadily. Current figures mention ten sites in total, eight focused on padel, and around seventy courts. That scale indicates a shift from isolated pilot projects toward a structured and repeatable operating model. For the French market, this is a relevant signal because it helps create reliable padel infrastructure beyond traditional metropolitan hubs.

The profile of the new Saint-Quentin club

The future venue is designed as a fully padel-focused complex and is set to become the first of its kind in the Saint-Quentin urban area. Plans include eight indoor courts across roughly 2,500 square meters, plus around 250 square meters of social and service spaces, including bar, food and changing facilities. The site is therefore positioned not only as a training venue but as a multifunctional meeting point for sport, leisure and community. This approach mirrors broader developments across European padel markets, where clubs increasingly operate as hybrid sport-and-lifestyle environments.

The service structure follows the brand’s existing format and is built to serve different player profiles. Planned offers include individual and group coaching, a padel school, officially sanctioned tournaments and event formats for leisure and corporate clients. This combination can attract both beginners and regular players. Operationally, such a mix is important because it allows distinct demand windows to be filled throughout the day: training in the afternoon, social play in the evening, tournaments on weekends and private company sessions in flexible time blocks.

Planned offer components

• Eight indoor padel courts for year-round play
• Individual and group coaching for multiple skill levels
• Structured youth and school-oriented padel programs
• Official tournaments with competitive structure
• Leisure and corporate event formats with booking options

Impact on region and market

For Saint-Quentin, the project could close a clear gap. Where options have so far been occasional or mixed-use, a dedicated facility with focused sports identity and meaningful capacity is now planned. This makes recurring training frameworks easier, supports local playing communities and simplifies the organization of tournament series. The indoor setup also enables year-round planning, which is crucial for building stable memberships and sustainable coaching programs.

At the national level, the announcement confirms a broader trend toward more professional club development in padel. Operators are no longer investing only in isolated courts but in complete business formats that combine hospitality, events and layered service models. That environment opens the sport to new audiences: recreational players, families, club groups and companies can use the same venue in different ways. If the timeline to January 2027 is met, Saint-Quentin is likely to become a relevant node in northern France’s padel landscape and potentially a template for further expansion projects.

This latest project sequence from ALL IN PADEL therefore reflects a consistent blend of location strategy, offer standardization and regional market opening. The new Saint-Quentin club does not only add playing capacity; it also creates a framework where training, competition and social use are connected under one roof. For padel in France, that mainly means one thing: more reliable infrastructure, broader participation and another step toward durable long-term club structures.
