NINEPADEL Partners with Cork Padel for the UK & Irish Market
We’re really excited to announce that NINEPADEL is now partnering with Cork Padel to bring one of the most unique and premium racket brands in the game to the UK and Irish padel market.
If you’ve come across Cork padel rackets in the UK before, you’ll know they’re not your typical racket. This is a brand doing things differently — focusing on handmade craftsmanship, premium materials, and a completely different feel on court. We’ve been watching Cork for a while, and once you hit with one, it’s pretty obvious why they’ve built such a strong reputation.
Cork Padel is a Portuguese brand built around quality, not mass production. Every racket is handmade in Portugal, with each one individually crafted and finished — meaning no two rackets are exactly the same.
What really sets Cork apart is their use of natural cork within the racket construction, designed to absorb vibrations and create a smoother, more controlled feel on impact. This isn’t just a gimmick — it genuinely changes how the racket feels in your hand. Less vibration, more comfort, and a really clean, connected response on every shot.
On top of that, the build quality is on another level. These rackets feel solid, refined, and premium, with finishes that stand out straight away. Cork aren’t trying to flood the market — they’re focused on making high-performance, exclusive rackets that feel different from anything else out there.
Padel is growing fast across the UK and Ireland, and players are starting to look beyond the usual brands. There’s a real demand now for something a bit more premium — something that feels better, lasts longer, and gives you that edge on court.
That’s exactly where Cork padel UK fits in.
These rackets offer:
- Top-tier build quality
- Exceptional comfort and feel
- Premium finishes that stand out
- And importantly — real value for what you’re getting
We genuinely think Cork rackets are going to become very popular in the UK, especially once more players get them in hand. They’re different — and different in this case feels very, very good.
Rather than bringing in the full range, we’ve carefully selected a curated lineup of the best and most popular Cork rackets — the ones we believe UK players will actually love and use.
In this collection, you’ll find:
- Cork Extreme Deus II – a top-end, pro-level racket developed with the Deus brothers
- Cork Extreme Black II – powerful, solid, and built for high-level attacking play
- Cork Supreme Hybrid IV – one of the best all-round rackets in the Cork lineup
- Cork Classic II – unmatched comfort and control, incredibly easy on the arm
- Cork Premium-Hybrid III – balancing feel, performance, and everyday playability
Each one keeps that same Cork DNA — handmade, premium, and completely different to the mainstream.
This is a brand we’re genuinely proud to be working with.
Bringing Cork padel rackets to the UK isn’t just about adding another brand — it’s about offering something better. Something more refined. Something that actually changes how the game feels.
If you’re looking to step away from the standard options and try something premium, unique, and built to a different standard — Cork is 100% worth it.
And once you play with one… it’s very hard to go back.
