Mid Devon District Council is seeking a supplier to finance, design, build, operate and maintain a Padel Sports Centre on Council-owned land. Qualified commercial operators are invited to bid to deliver a sustainable long-term facility that expands high-quality active leisure provision, maximises commercial income opportunities and enhances community participation in sport. The successful bidder will enter a commercial lease and operate the facility at their own commercial risk, leveraging Active Mid Devon’s established footfall and membership base of over 7,000. The appointed operator must finance, design and construct the facility to relevant national and international governing body standards, including guidance from the Lawn Tennis Association, and will be responsible for all operations, maintenance, staffing, marketing, promoting participation and ensuring equitable community access in line with Active Mid Devon’s vision and values.
