Johannesburg, 14 May 2025: Sandton just levelled up its lifestyle game. Net Set Padel, a premium rooftop padel centre, has officially opened its doors at Sandton City, and it’s already the new social-sporting hotspot worth knowing about.

Perched near Entrance 8, this state-of-the-art venue boasts eight courts — four outdoor and four indoor — all imported from Spain’s PADEL ALBA and designed to meet top international specs. Whether you’re an experienced padel fanatic or just in it for the post-match drinks, this is where Johannesburg’s sharp set is heading next.

Courts Worth Talking About

The venue stretches across 1,600 square meters of playing space with Supercourt XN astro turf underfoot, ensuring that every bounce is perfect and every rally stays fierce. The indoor courts feature panoramic glass and loads of space for those dramatic run-outs.

For the tech-heads and serious players, PlaySight Camera Systems are fitted across the indoor courts, meaning live streaming, instant replays, and performance analysis are built-in. Want to glow in the dark? They can do that too. The fully blacked-out indoor setup means glow-in-the-dark padel matches are officially on the cards.

It’s Not Just About The Game

A mezzanine-level deck offers prime views of the on-court action, while plans for a rooftop sunset bar overlooking the Sandton skyline are already in motion. Expect this to be the post-game hangout for the city’s in-crowd.

High-end showers and premium player amenities keep things classy, while the engineering that brought this beast to life is equally impressive, with every court hand-assembled on the rooftop and vertical clearance making it one of the most playable venues in the country.

Sandton Gets It Right, Again

Dimitri Kokinos, asset manager at Sandton City, says, “It’s about pushing the boundaries of what a lifestyle destination can offer. This venue’s got everything — world-class courts, pro-level tech, and a rooftop setting you won’t find anywhere else in South Africa.”
