The rising popularity of padel and pickleball in Singapore has sparked a wave of new operators racing to meet demand. One of them is The Sports Arina, the country’s first and largest air-conditioned pickleball and padel facility.

But running a venue like this is anything but simple. From court maintenance and specialised flooring to soundproofing, pricing strategies, and creating new revenue streams, there’s a lot happening behind the scenes to stay competitive and profitable, especially once the hype begins to settle.

On this episode of Mind Your Business, we’re joined by Kelly Latimer, Partner, The Sports Arina, who made the leap from media host and sports personality to business owner, to share what it really takes to turn this sporting craze into a sustainable business.
