Project Overview
A new sports venue takes more than a great idea. It takes a building, facilities and the funding to help bring everything together.
We worked with Padel Power to help arrange funding for its venue in Northampton, supporting a project that involved multiple courts and work on the building.
The customer already knew Josh and Taylor through previous work with other companies. When it came to funding Padel Power, they chose to work with us again.

The Challenge
Padel Power’s plans involved creating a venue with a range of sports and fitness facilities. In the customer’s interview, they described:
- Seven double padel courts and two singles padel courts.
- A pickleball court and table tennis.
- A gym and a Pilates studio.
- Work on the building alongside the development of the courts.
With several elements to bring together, the team needed help with the funding required to build the venue.
Our Solution
We helped Padel Power with its funding requirement, building on a relationship the customer already had with Josh and Taylor.
The customer’s account highlights three aspects of the experience:
- A familiar team: people they had worked with before and chose to work with again.
- Helpful communication: a team they described as responsive when finance was needed.
- A straightforward process: supplying the requested details and keeping in touch with the team as the funding progressed.
Rather than inventing a funding structure or repayment arrangement, this case study focuses on what the customer confirmed: our help with funding the venue and their experience of working with us.
Implementation
The customer explained that Josh and Taylor asked for the details they needed, the team at Padel Power supplied them, and funding followed.
In the interview, the customer described working with Nexgen as “quick and easy”, with the team only ever a phone call away.
That is the customer’s experience of this particular project. Funding times and outcomes vary according to the application and provider requirements.
Results
Padel Power says we helped secure the funding it needed to build the venue. The facilities described in the customer’s interview include:
Double padel courts
Part of the venue’s padel offering described by the customer.
Singles padel courts
Alongside the double courts within the venue.
Beyond padel
Pickleball, table tennis, gym and Pilates facilities, according to the interview.
Padel Power’s website also highlights a clubhouse, bar and café, courtside replay screens, coaching and a reformer Pilates studio. Together, these give the venue a social element beyond time on court.
These describe the venue’s facilities, not a breakdown of the individual items financed through Nexgen.
Overall Impact
This story is about more than a single funding requirement. It shows why a familiar, approachable team matters when a business is taking its next step.
The customer came back to people they already knew, valued the communication and says we helped arrange the funding needed for the venue.
“Working with NexGen is so quick and easy. Those guys are only ever a phone call away.”
