Who We Are
Lifelong passion for sport
Max and Jack have been immersed in sport from an early age, both playing competitively since a young age and developing a deep appreciation for its role in bringing people together.
Early believers in padel
Over a decade ago, they discovered padel when the sport was still in its infancy, played in only a handful of countries. Since then, they’ve seen first-hand its rapid global growth.
A mission to make it accessible
NGP was created to bring that same experience to more people, making padel accessible, social, and a natural part of campus life.
