Other details:

Padel4Schools is looking for partner schools who are interested in growing Padel for the school and local community. Next year, in Summer 2026, they are hosting a series of padel activations across the UK, to grow the game and provide access for young people to play the sport. Preferred Dates: School summer holidays with scope to extend into May, June and September if possible. Other details: We are looking for schools with space to accommodate 2-3 temporary courts, either on flat tarmac surfaces or on astro/tennis court spaces. We are flexible to offer either payment flat fee hire or operate a revenue share agreement. We are hoping to open up the courts to the local community at weekends/holidays and provide access to students/staff during the school day. We would welcome any conversation with schools looking to increase facility hire revenue over the summer months and provide opportunities for students to experience a fast growing sport.

In the short period of time that we have been a member of SEA its already proving invaluable. The courses are excellent and also very inspiring to see the potential our Enterprises has when listening to schools already very well established.

The challenges and opportunities around generating commercial income within a school setting are unique – and without the SEA, we wouldn’t have the same level of organised peer support to share experiences, explore new perspectives, exchange best practice, and to encourage one another. The SEA adds real value year-round.

Oliver Watkins, Co-Commercial Director, Alleyn's School
The recent SEA Advisory meeting, the first I've attended, was great and exactly the sort of level and collegiate feel I hoped for.

Julie thomson, Commercial Manager, Yarrells Preparatory School
Active professional networking is vital to our commercial activities. The SEA brings people together and builds long-term relationships as well as a good level of trust and support over time. The biggest advantages of being a SEA member are to get fresh ideas, strengthen business connections, raise your profile in your own school environment, gain more knowledge and most importantly get advice and support.

Marina Kilaniotis, Head of Commercial, Highgate School.
I return to the office after every one of the SEA events that I attend and immediately refer to my notes, implementing something new or developmental in my department.

Hannah Dwyer, Head of Commercial, Cheltenham Ladies’ College
The launch of the Sports Chapter was an important milestone – I look forward to networking with many colleagues around the country who run equally unique school sports centres. Sharing issues and opportunities while providing solutions to industry challenges, make this an exciting prospect.
