Centre Court Padel — St Helens

Centre Court Padel is the first padel club to open in the St Helens area, built on the site of an established health club. With four brand-new courts and a completely fresh audience to introduce the sport to, they needed a big pre-launch push to build excitement, get locals registered, and hit the ground running on opening day. Ace Rally Media stepped in to build momentum and set up the tech stack that powers their follow-up.

What We Did
