O’People is the community culture of the O’Padel family. What turns padel from a standalone sport into a weekly routine are the bonds that continue off the court. Whether you just moved to Sarıyer or have lived here for years, the people you meet in your first match at O’Padel Sky soon become your regular foursome.

Community program

  • Social match pairing — weekly matches with players at your level
  • Newcomers Night — the first Thursday of every month, just for beginners
  • Women's Padel Meetups — group lessons with a female coach, plus an Americano

If you're coming solo

The biggest barrier to getting into padel is finding four players. Social match pairing solves exactly that: share your level and availability, and we'll place you in the right foursome. Our level system runs from 1.0 to 7.0, and matches are set up based on that rating, so games are both competitive and fun. Details: starting padel without a partner.
