Our Team

Chase Woodsum

Founder

Chase has always placed sports at the center of his life, seeking a way to work in the field even without a clear vision of what that might look like. He started as a football player, then became a collegiate golfer, a hacker platform tennis player, a backpacker, a fast-walking trail runner, and an aspiring backcountry skier. Two years ago, Chase discovered padel and was immediately hooked. As a long-time Bostonian, he wondered, 'Why doesn’t this sport exist in Boston?' Fast forward to today: that first experience inspired him to leave his job and create the first dedicated padel facility in the Boston area. Chase is excited to introduce padel and build a welcoming community for people of all abilities across Greater Boston!
