Pickleball is run by avid players, built around our community, socials and level-matched games.
We have a real community of avid players who organize socials, run level-matched games, and chat in our active WhatsApp group. New players are welcome; experienced players will find a level.
Our community isn’t built on schedules and contracts. It’s built on what happens after the games are over: post-court conversations, dynamic scheduling of pickup games, and friends people make on the way out.

Everything you need to know before your first game.
Pickleball is a fast-growing paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis. It's played on a court about a third the size of a tennis court, with a perforated plastic ball and solid paddles — easy to pick up, hard to put down. If you can hold a paddle, you can rally on your first day.
They're both racket sports, but genuinely different games. Padel is played in doubles on an enclosed court with walls you can play the ball off, using a solid strung paddle. Pickleball is played on an open court with a lighter perforated paddle and a plastic ball, and can be singles or doubles. Top Padel is one of the few UAE operators running both seriously — if you're not sure which suits you, come try both.
No — pickleball is one of the easiest racket sports to pick up. The court is smaller than tennis, the ball moves slower, and the rules are simple. Most beginners are rallying comfortably within their first session. Join one of our open community sessions to try it with friendly, level-matched players.
Top Padel runs pickleball at four venues across Dubai and Sharjah: Me'aisem (Dubai, outdoor), AIS Sharjah (indoor + outdoor), Universal American School (Dubai, indoor), and Deira International School (Dubai, indoor). See "Where We Play" above for details on each.
Both, depending on venue — Top Padel is the only UAE operator offering pickleball indoor AND outdoor. Me'aisem is outdoor; AIS Sharjah has both; UAS and DIS are indoor halls in Dubai. Indoor courts are ideal for the UAE's hot summer months, outdoor courts are great in the cooler season.
Pricing varies by venue and time of day — see the Pricing section above for current rates at each club. Paddle rental is available at every venue if you don't have your own yet.
Yes — Top Padel runs one of the UAE's most active pickleball communities, with regular open-play sessions, socials and level-matched games across all four venues. Message us on WhatsApp to join your nearest community — see Contact below.
