TopSpin Sports Centre

TopSpin Sports Centre is a multi-sport complex in Al Jaddaf, right next to the Jaddaf Rotana Hotel and a short hop from the Creek and Healthcare City. Tennis is the core of the place, but padel sits alongside it together with pickleball, basketball, volleyball and table tennis programmes. The club does not publish how many padel courts it has, and it is not confirmed whether they are covered, so ask when you book. The website lists padel court hire from AED 120 per hour off-peak (weekdays 8 am to 5 pm) and AED 160 per hour at peak times, although the same page also shows a single 60-minute padel booking at AED 250, so confirm the rate before you pay. The padel academy runs private, semi-private and group lessons. Around the courts you get the Dropshot Cafe, a pro shop with rackets, shoes and stringing, a shower room, lockers and a lounge area. The centre is open daily from 7 am until midnight. With 229 reviews at 4.7, players mostly praise the well-run tournaments, which have referees on court, as well as the good court quality and the clubhouse facilities. Visiting juniors playing ITF tennis events also speak highly of it. The main complaint concerns coaching packages: one player bought sessions with a coach who had left the centre without being told, and then struggled to get a replacement. If you buy a lesson bundle, check which coach is attached to it.
