Strike Padel is based within Withdean Sports Complex, a multi-sport leisure facility that's caught between ambition and capacity. The venue itself has decent infrastructure — five indoor courts on artificial grass, plus a full gym, tennis courts, squash, sauna and café. However, players should expect the complex to be heavily subscribed, particularly during peak hours and for class bookings. The booking system has been a source of frustration, with spots filling quickly and technical glitches reported. Parking can be problematic on busy days. Staff are generally helpful, but the venue's popularity means availability isn't guaranteed. It's worth checking ahead before visiting.
