Manny Smith
CEO & Founder of The Island Club (Padel)
After just over two years of playing padel, the sport has become a real passion of mine. I now train full-time at The Harbour Club Chelsea, where I proudly represent their Second Team in the Padel League, competing against some of the country’s top clubs.
Through The Island Club, I’ve had the opportunity to bring my own Caribbean flair to the game, helping to make padel more inclusive, lively, and welcoming to a broader community.
Ipsa Joshi
CEO & Co-Founder of The Island Club (Padel)
I’ve only been playing padel for 5 months, but it’s already become such a big part of my life. Being half St Lucian, I’ve always loved bringing energy, fun, and a sense of community to everything I do, and padel has given me the perfect outlet for that. The mix of competition, teamwork, and pure joy on court has me hooked—I can’t wait to see how far I can take this journey.
Jonny Vieira
Co Founder / Events Manager of The Island Club (Padel)
Padel has taken me on an amazing journey, from playing in Portugal, Spain, and Bali to coaching amateurs and helping new players fall in love with the game. As Co-Founder and Events Manager of The Island Club, I get to bring people together, combining my passion for sport, community, and fun.
I love meeting new people, creating friendships through padel, and designing events that are as social and lively as they are competitive.
