Rooftop Padel Club in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Creating a High-Quality Rooftop Padel Sports Space in Downtown Kuala Lumpur

This project, named The Rally Padel Club, is located on the rooftop of Quill City Mall (Rooftop 1, 8th Floor) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Situated in the heart of the city's commercial district, its unique location offers excellent visibility and foot traffic, but also places higher demands on the construction of the sports field.

UNIPADEL successfully installed three fully enclosed, super-panoramic padel courts with dark green turf. The exterior combines transparent glass with a dark metal structure, transforming the rooftop space into a modern urban sports arena.

Three key highlights include:

• Super Panorama Design: Unobstructed views and an unparalleled viewing experience
• Fully Enclosed Structure: Insulates against wind and rain, improving the lifespan and stability of the court
• Professional-Grade Lighting System: Maintains international-standard lighting even at night

This project brings a new urban vibrancy to Kuala Lumpur, combining sports, social interaction, and entertainment.

Client Challenges: Multiple Constraints of Urban Rooftop Construction

Before the project commenced, the client raised several key challenges, requesting UNIPADEL to provide complete solutions:

1. High Requirements for Roof Load-Bearing Capacity and Structural Safety

The rooftops of urban commercial centers have limited load-bearing capacity, necessitating weight reduction for equipment while ensuring structural stability.

2. Court Durability in High Temperatures and Rainy Climates

Malaysia experiences year-round high humidity and frequent rainfall, causing ordinary court materials to age or degrade in a short period.

3. A Balance of Visual Sophistication and Excellent Sports Experience

The client desired to create "the most sophisticated Padel court in the city center," thus demanding extremely high standards for the exterior design, lighting effects, and turf quality.

4. The Need for Player-Friendly Service Spaces (Rehabilitation Area + Dining Area)

Beyond the court itself, the client desired to create a complete sports ecosystem, including:

• A recovery area with ice baths and saunas
• A dining area for rest, socializing, and recharging.

UNIPADEL Solutions: Rooftop Structural Safety + High-End Design

1. Custom-Designed Rooftop Court Structure

UNIPADEL has specifically optimized the structure to address roof load-bearing issues:

• Uses lightweight yet high-strength steel structure
• Employs scientific reinforcement methods to ensure stability and durability
• Selects safety-certified glass panels to guarantee both strength and light transmission

Ultimately, the court is both stable and does not place an excessive load on the roof.

2. Fully Enclosed Weatherproof System, Year-Round Playability

Addressing Malaysia's frequent rainy season and humid climate, we utilize:

• A fully enclosed glass + metal mesh wall structure
• Highly weather-resistant dark green artificial turf
• A drainage-optimized surface design

Not only is it moisture- and heat-resistant, reducing maintenance costs, but it also ensures normal operation even during the rainy season.

3. Super Panoramic Design, Perfectly Blending Aesthetics and Function

UNIPADEL's design solution makes the court:

• Almost unobstructed
• Enhances the viewing experience and filming effects
• Significantly improves visual transparency and the sense of spaciousness

Ideal for rooftop venues, making the overall space appear more spacious and grand, becoming a new sports landmark in Kuala Lumpur.

4. Professional Lighting Setup Achieves International Competition Illumination Standards

Considering the client's desire for a premium competition experience, UNIPADEL's configuration includes:

• Professional-grade LED sports lighting
• Anti-glare setup to avoid affecting player vision
• Uniform illumination distribution to ensure no dark areas at night

The venue meets international competition standards from dusk to night.

5. Creating a Complete "Sports + Recovery + Social" Experience Space

Recovery Area

• Sauna: Relax muscles and promote recovery
• Ice Bath Area: Reduce soreness and accelerate post-match recovery
• Dining Area: Provides comfortable rest and dining space

Allowing players not only to play but also to recover in a professional environment.
