The owner of an indoor trampoline park in Telford has submitted plans to have five padel courts.
Dean Maguire wants the courts to be at Unit F at Stafford Park 12, close to the AIREA51 trampoline site.
It is currently a substantial warehouse that was previously occupied by Magibords Limited, a manufacturer of whiteboards, noticeboards and associated presentation products.
However, the company ceased trading in February and entered voluntary liquidation.
Submitting a planning statement on Mr Maguire's behalf, Laura Walton, of CWL Design Ltd, said the proposed development would bring the building into use as a purpose-designed indoor padel facility comprising of five double courts and one single.
There would also be a bar and seating area, changing facilities, toilets and shows, and associated staff and treatment facilities.
If approved, the facility would be open seven days a week from 6am to 11pm, with staff including three cleaners, two managers, four bar staff (which will be increased during busier weekend periods), a spa manager, and a sports therapist.
Ms Walton said the proposal would receive strong strategic support from the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA), the national governing body for padel
"It directly aligns with the LTA’s stated objective of substantially expanding access to padel and, in particular, increasing the availability of covered and indoor courts that can operate throughout the year," she said.
