Meadowbank Sports Centre

Reopened following a landmark redevelopment, Meadowbank Sports Centre stands as a focal point for grassroots sport in East Edinburgh. Managed by Edinburgh Leisure, the centre features modern outdoor padel courts to serve the city's rapidly expanding racket sports community. Set with tournament-grade synthetic turf, silica sand dressing, and clear glass surrounds, the courts offer consistent ball response and reliable traction through every season. Meadowbank fosters an active, down-to-earth sporting atmosphere where local workers, students, and club players mix freely. Court reservations are handled seamlessly through the Edinburgh Leisure online platform, accommodating both monthly fitness members and pay-as-you-play visitors up to two weeks in advance. Beyond the padel enclosure, visitors share the buzzing environment of one of Scotland's busiest sports hubs, complete with indoor athletics, fitness studios, and an on-site cafe for post-match debriefs.
