MILWAUKEE, WI — August 6, 2026 — Epic Padel today announced it will open its first Milwaukee club at the end of August as the company continues its growth and expansion, advancing its mission to make padel accessible to everyone through world-class facilities, technology, and community-driven experiences.
With eight premium indoor courts, the club features a suite of hospitality-driven amenities, including a warm-up area, private locker rooms and showers, a vibrant social lounge, co-working spaces, and a grab-and-go café, creating a destination where members can compete, connect, work, and socialize under one roof.
While demand for padel continues to accelerate across the United States, Epic has remained disciplined in its expansion strategy, carefully selecting markets where the sport can thrive for generations rather than simply adding courts. Milwaukee emerged as a natural fit because of its vibrant sports culture, growing appetite for experiential wellness, and strong sense of community.
“Our goal has never been just to build courts,” said Hala Sarkis, CEO of Epic Padel. “We're building communities. Every market we enter is selected thoughtfully because we believe padel has the power to bring people together, improve lives, and create meaningful connections. Milwaukee checked every box for us, and we're excited to help introduce a new generation of players to this incredible sport.”
Whether someone is picking up a racquet for the first time or competing at an advanced level, Epic Padel Milwaukee will offer programming designed for every stage of a player's journey, including coaching, clinics, leagues, social play, tournaments, junior programs, and community events throughout the year.
Members will access the club through the Epic Padel App, powered by Zero.40 Technologies. The app lets players reserve courts, find matches, register for programming, and stay connected with fellow members and club activities — all in one seamless experience. It also integrates with Clutch AI for player analytics and Red Padel, the official U.S. rating system: each court is fitted with Clutch AI cameras that track a player's every movement, and once the game ends, the player receives in-game highlights and stats.
Milwaukee's opening comes at a time when padel is experiencing unprecedented global momentum. As millions of players embrace the sport worldwide, demand continues to rise across North America as players discover padel's unique blend of accessibility, competition, fitness, and social connection.
Epic Padel believes the opportunity extends far beyond building clubs. The company is actively investing throughout the padel ecosystem, supporting organizations and technologies that accelerate the sport's long-term growth. Its investments include industry-leading brands and platforms such as the Pro Padel League, Hexagon Cup, and several padel operators globally, helping strengthen the sport at every level—from professional competition to grassroots participation.
"Padel isn't just a sport; it's a movement," Sarkis added. "We're excited to bring that energy to Milwaukee. We see this club becoming a gathering place where friendships are formed, businesses connect, families stay active, and a new sporting community is built from the ground up."
The Milwaukee club represents another milestone in Epic's broader mission to make padel accessible to more communities throughout North America while setting a new standard for the member experience.
