How it works

paduno only works if it's worth it for everyone: the players, the captains who run the games and the venues that own the courts. Here's how the money moves.

Where your £16 goes

A typical game: four courts, 90 minutes, about fourteen of sixteen spots filled, full price.

The venue, for the court	£6.50
Your captain	£2.59
VAT	£2.67
Balls and card fees	£0.86
paduno	£3.38
Your spot	£16.00

paduno's share pays for booking, levels, the season tables, insurance and finding new players.

Why it's £16

Peak court time in London often costs £60 an hour or more. paduno only plays in the hours venues struggle to sell, so we can pay the venue fairly and still keep a spot at £16. That's why most games start at 8:30pm or later, or on a weekend afternoon.

Who gets what
