ADEL Private Club

The world is
your court.

A private membership built around sport, travel, community and access. Beginning in Montréal, opening city by city.

Applications open — Founding members

ADEL Private Club is being built now. Nothing on this page is operating yet — there are no members, no partner venues, no concierge desk and no published price. This is an invitation to be considered early, not a product for sale.

The premise

Equipment is the entry point, not the boundary.

A paddle is a good object. It is not a reason to build a company.

What makes sport worth organising a life around is rarely the equipment. It is the court you could not get on. The four people worth playing. The hour before work in a city you landed in last night. The table afterwards, which is usually the part you remember.

None of that is sold anywhere. It is arranged, by people who know the room, for people who are already inside it. ADEL Private Club is an attempt to make that arrangeable — deliberately, for a small number of people, city by city.

We are starting in Montréal because that is where we are, and because a club that cannot work in one city has no business claiming five.

01

Concierge

One point of contact, wherever you are. Tell ADEL what you want to play and where, and we work our network to arrange it — courts, coaching, recovery, the table afterwards.

“I land Thursday night and have Friday morning free. Find three people worth playing and somewhere worth playing them.”

What it is notA booking engine, an app, or a phone number that reaches a script.

02

Access

Relationships with private clubs, courts, hotels, resorts, coaches and hospitality groups — built city by city, one at a time, and only where we can stand behind the room.

What it is notA directory of discounts, or a card that gets you ten percent off.

03

Experiences

ADEL Private Court, sporting weekends, dinners, previews and travel. Some included in membership, some offered to members before anyone else. Small by design — the format stops working above a certain number.

What it is notA conference, a brand activation, or a room full of strangers.

04

Community

A considered group connected by sport, ambition and curiosity — founders, athletes, designers, operators. The point is who is in the room, which is why the room stays small.

What it is notA network you can buy into, or a follower count with a membership fee.

05

Privileges

First access to collections, private editions and member colourways, alongside partner privileges. The products are a benefit of membership, never the reason for it. If the paddle is why you joined, this is the wrong club and we would rather sell you the paddle.

What it is notA subscription box, or a loyalty tier dressed up as a club.

The founding group

50

Founding members · Montréal · 2026

The first fifty members shape what this becomes. They get the founding rate for as long as they hold membership, a direct line to us, and a say in the cities and formats that follow. Fifty is not a marketing number — it is roughly the largest group we can serve properly while the concierge is two people and a phone.

How it works

Considered, not purchased.

Membership is by application. We would rather it be the right fifty people than the fastest fifty.

01

Apply

You tell us who you are, where you play and what you would want from a club like this. Two minutes, no payment, no card.

02

Read

Every application is read by a person. We are looking for fit with a small founding group, not for a score.

03

Conversation

If there is a fit, we talk. This runs both ways — you should be interrogating whether this is worth your time.

04

Invitation

Founding members are invited in writing, with terms and a price, before anything is charged. You can say no.

Plainly

What this is not, yet.

  • There is no price yet. Not because we are being coy — because the club has not been built and we will not take money for something that does not exist. Founding members will see terms before they see an invoice.
  • There are no members. Zero. You would be early. That is the offer.
  • There are no partner venues yet. We are not going to list logos of clubs we have had one conversation with. When a relationship is real, it will be named here.
  • Concierge does not exist yet. The examples on this page describe what it is being built to do, not what it does today.
  • This is not a waitlist for the paddle. ADEL 001 is sold openly at getadel.com on 12 September 2026. Membership gets you nothing at that drop that anyone else cannot have.

Request Consideration

Tell us who you are.

Every application is read by a person. We are not accepting on a first-come basis, and there is no payment at this stage.
