Anyone got a court tonight at 19:00?
Called three clubs — only 22:30
Need a fourth, level ~3
I paid 500,000 for the court, send 125 each
That’s it, cancelled. Moving to next week

Padel for 125,000
instead of 500,000
An evening 90-minute padel court costs 500,000 UZS. In SQUAD everyone pays their own share — an elite sport becomes accessible.

05 Our key difference
Coaches — the third
side of the market
Coaches get students, a schedule and payments. Clubs get a share of money that used to bypass the till.

06 For clubs
An empty court hour —
minus 380,000 UZS
That’s the average hourly price across nine padel courts in Tashkent. Courts sit empty in the daytime, and phone bookings are unreliable.

Why now · Presidential Decree PP-347 of 21.09.2026
State tennis courts move to self-financing
From 1 January 2027 courts set their own prices for paid services — they need a sales tool. SQUAD provides it today: booking, payments and players from day one.
