PUDL Padel

PUDL Padel is a locally owned padel club at 1901 Bell Avenue in Des Moines, Iowa, just south of Grays Lake and close to downtown. It has one indoor and one outdoor court, and reviewers call it the only padel court in Iowa. A physical therapy clinic shares the building. Courts are booked through the club's OpenCourt app, which also allows public drop-in play, so you do not need a membership. Members get unlimited court use and a private group option. Hours were not listed on Google, so working hours are left blank and prices are not published on the sources checked. Google shows 5.0 stars from only 3 reviews. Reviewers say the facility is clean, bright and well kept, the courts are good to play on, and the owner, Xavier, is welcoming and remembers names. Lessons and clinics get praise, and one parent notes it is kid friendly. The sample is too small to identify real weaknesses, and no negative comments were found. With just two courts, expect limited availability at peak times, and the outdoor court depends on Iowa weather.
