The 20,000 square feet facility features three padel courts, a pickleball court, a swimming pool, a gym, a recovery room, a cafe and a sauna. Chennai Super Kings skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad was also present on the ocassion.
“Chennai has always been special to me. The city has given me so much on and off the field, and it feels only right to launch my first padel centre here. Padel is exciting and addictive. More importantly, it’s inclusive and anyone, not just professionals, can try the sport. I want 7Padel to be a place where athletes, families, and fitness lovers all find their space,” said Dhoni.
