Game4Padel has teamed up with Active Away, the sports holiday business backed by Dragons’ Den investor Peter Jones, to offer trips to its flagship Spanish padel resort.
The partnership will see Active Away hosting padel holidays to Game4Padel’s Oliva Nova Beach & Golf Resort, from next summer onwards.
Active Away have begun promoting their group trips following a huge increase in demand for padel experiences from their community.
The company will be offering hosted and non-hosted trips to Oliva Nova. Hosted trips are managed by an Active Away representative who is on site and arranges group activities such as organised meals and welcome meetings, as well as the logistical details of the holiday, including travel, padel coaching and booking court time. Non-hosted trips can be also be booked, with court time and coaching arranged prior to departure.
Oliva Nova is a five-star golf and beach resort in between Valencia and Alicante. Earlier this year, Game4Padel opened a seven-court padel centre, with floodlights and a show court, at the luxury destination adding to its existing golf, football and tennis facilities.
Game4Padel’s coaching partner, PadelMBA operate at the padel centre, offering lessons and clinics with qualified coaches.
Established in 2006, Active Away started with a vision of uniting people through a common interest – tennis. For over 15 years the company has hosted more than 8,000 people on tennis holidays. The company appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2016 and received investment from Peter Jones after a successful pitch.
Speaking about the new partnership, Josh Thompson the Managing Director of Active Away said: “We are proud to be Game4Padel’s official travel partner. We have high standards when it comes to our partnerships and we were incredibly impressed with how professional, engaging and driven they are as a business, and how they build active padel communities. We are confident these new padel experiences will be exceptional and grow to be a significant part of our business going forward”.
