This episode features Frankie Langan, former Great Britain No.1 padel player, GB National Boys Coach, entrepreneur, investor, podcaster, YouTuber and venue operator, and one of the most recognisable figures in British padel.
Frankie’s journey has taken him from competing at the highest level and representing Great Britain to helping develop the next generation of elite junior players. Today, he’s taking everything he’s learned on court and applying it to the business of padel building venues like Bishop Stortford Padel club with his Dad, investing in opportunities abroad like Laga Padel in Lombok and creating content around one of the world’s fastest-growing sports. His aim is to be the Gary Neville of Padel!
Frankie has experienced the padel industry from almost every angle.. player, coach, creator, operator and entrepreneur, making this a fascinating conversation about what it really takes to build a career and a business around a rapidly growing sport.
