The knowledge institute for the racquet sports ecosystem

Independent, evidence-based analysis of the racquet facility ecosystem — benchmarks and data drawn from verified sources, not the open web, across padel, pickleball, tennis, badminton, and squash.

Why the facility

Roughly 80% of the sector's value is generated at the facilities themselves — the professional tennis circuit is the only significant exception. The facility is the point of sale of racquet sports, and where the largest decisions are made: how many courts, which mix of sports, which pricing and membership model, which location. That is where the Institute focuses.
