Taikoo Place is thrilled to unveil its latest project: Project After 6: Padel Tour 2024, a unique cross-industry collaboration with sportswear brand Adidas and Padel+, Hong Kong’s first premier padel tennis club.
In this particular season, Project After 6 shines a spotlight on Padel, the burgeoning racquet sport that combines elements of tennis and squash. The objective is to encourage the community to explore a new trendy hobby, adopt a well-balanced lifestyle, and forge meaningful connections with like-minded individuals. This limited-time offering exemplifies Taikoo Place’s commitment to placemaking through creating exceptional community experiences!
From 10 May to 19 July, the highlight of Padel Tour 2024 is the full-scale, professional padel court at One Island East, which will be hoisted over the office tower’s original iconic fountain features next to Taikoo Park. Bringing the padel court literally to the doorsteps of the Taikoo Place community, this limited-time facility will be the first professional padel court built inside a Global Business District – and the only padel court available in downtown Hong Kong. To ensure a proper introduction to the sport, the experienced team from Padel+ will be present during weekdays of the first month to offer tailored coaching support.
Another exclusive for this collaboration, Adidas will be debuting its professional line of padel racquets and balls in Hong Kong for the first time, ensuring participants have access to the best gear to conquer the court. This partnership reflects the brands’ commitment to enriching the local sports culture and promoting an active lifestyle in a fresh and exciting way. Participants of the padel experience will be eligible to redeem an exclusive Padel Tour 2024 laptop sleeve by sharing their padel moments on social media, using the hashtag #PadelWithTaikooPlace.
Padel Tour 2024 is an integral component of Taikoo Place’s forward-thinking Project After 6 tenant engagement initiative. This initiative aims to encourage office executives to pursue their passions beyond work and rediscover their physical, spiritual, and communal connections. Over the past decade, this initiative has given rise to numerous successful projects, including original English musical productions featuring office executives, culinary training courses for aspiring chefs within the working community, and engaging sports tournaments.
Both public members and Taikoo Place office tenants can book a session via the Taikoo Place App by following these instructions. Adidas equipment can be borrowed on site next to the court for the hour of a booking appointment.
