Located atop the iconic Sandton City Shopping Centre, Netset Sandton is redefining urban sports by transforming a prime rooftop space into a world-class padel destination. As one of the most unique sports facilities in Johannesburg, it offers an unmatched playing experience with breathtaking cityscape views, premium courts, and a dynamic social atmosphere.
The club features state-of-the-art padel courts with professional-grade blue playing surfaces, encased in sleek black metal and tempered glass enclosures. Positioned on a custom-engineered wooden deck, the courts ensure player comfort while seamlessly integrating with the sophisticated urban surroundings.
Beyond the game, Netset Sandton is designed as a vibrant social hub, featuring a stylish spectator area with shaded seating, lounge spaces, and hospitality elements, fostering a welcoming environment for both players and visitors. The rooftop setting enhances natural airflow and lighting, while strategically placed fixtures extend playability well into the evening.
As the first rooftop padel club at Sandton City, Netset Sandton is at the intersection of sport, lifestyle, and innovation. Positioned within one of Africa’s premier shopping and business districts, it offers unrivaled accessibility to professionals, fitness enthusiasts, and social players alike. By repurposing underutilized space in a high-density commercial hub, the club sets a new standard for integrating premium sports experiences into the urban landscape.
