Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 16 Oct, 04:32 · Archive

Conwy County Council's planning committee unanimously backed a £500,000 padel tennis centre conversion.

Conwy County Council's planning committee has unanimously approved proposals to convert a light industrial unit at Parc Menter Tre Morfa Enterprise Park into a padel tennis centre. The £500,000 investment is being put forward by Padel World UK Ltd.

The centre will feature multiple padel courts along with a café, bar and shop selling padel tennis accessories. The project will create 12 jobs. The investment covers court construction and installation, specialist surfacing, lighting, changing rooms, basic café and bar fit-out, and initial equipment. The centre will operate from 6am to 10pm, seven days a week, including bank holidays.

Cllr Samantha Cotton, who proposed approval, said: 'These centres are popping up all over the place, and they seem to be very successful, very popular, so I see no reason why it shouldn't go ahead.' Cllr Austin Roberts seconded the proposal. Padel, which combines elements of tennis and squash, has grown in popularity in recent years.
