The LTA gave you the skills to coach. PadelEngage gives you the tools to build a business around those skills, from your first booking to a full client list.
The qualification covers coaching. It does not cover the business.
You spent months working toward your LTA Padel Instructor qualification. Five days of training: four core days plus one elective (Coaching Kids Padel, or How to Coach the Double Glass), eight hours of work experience, coursework, and a video assessment, designed for group delivery to adults and juniors. You earned your Level 2. You are ready to coach. And the pathway keeps going: the LTA Padel Coach (Level 3) qualification launches in 2026, with the LTA pathway set to run to five levels.
And then the real questions start. How do you find players? How do you take bookings without using your personal WhatsApp? What should you charge? How do you get paid reliably instead of chasing bank transfers? Do you need a website? How do you get found on Google?
None of that is covered by the qualification. It is not a gap in the LTA’s teaching, it is simply not what the qualification is for. The LTA teaches you how to coach padel brilliantly. How to run a coaching business is a different subject. This is where PadelEngage starts.
Everything a newly qualified coach needs, ready from day one
Your own coaching page, live today
A professional profile at app.padelengage.com/pe/your-name. Your bio, your services, your booking link. Players who find you on Google see a credible, accredited coach, not a WhatsApp number.
Online booking without the back-and-forth
Players browse your available sessions, pick a time, and book. No messages, no confirmation texts, no calendar juggling. Your first booking could come in while you are on court.
Stripe payments from your first session
Connect your Stripe account in five minutes. Players pay at the point of booking. Money goes directly to you, no platform cut on session revenue.
Group sessions from day one
The Level 2 qualifies you to deliver group sessions. PadelEngage makes group sessions easy to manage: set a maximum capacity, let players book their spot, and always know who is coming. No WhatsApp group coordination needed.
Your players are yours
Every player who books through your PadelEngage page is in your account. Not a venue’s system. Yours. If you change where you coach, your player base comes with you.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use PadelEngage while I am still building my client base?
Yes, this is exactly when it makes the most sense to set up properly. Your coaching page starts appearing in Google search results from day one. Starting with the right infrastructure means you never need to undo informal habits later.
What does PadelEngage cost for a new coach?
Completely free to start. No card, no commitment. Your first 20 bookings are on us. After that, PadelEngage costs £59 a month.
Do I need to be LTA accredited to join?
No. You do not need to be LTA accredited to set up a PadelEngage profile. You can set up your page, add your services, and take bookings independently. LTA accreditation is a separate LTA requirement for coaching at LTA-registered venues.
What if I am only coaching part-time to start?
PadelEngage works at any session volume. Part-time coaches benefit just as much from professional online booking and upfront payments as full-time coaches, arguably more, because every session you do deliver needs to work properly.
