🚨 Exciting developments in Llanelli! 🚨 Plans to add three new padel courts next to the Machynys Peninsula Golf and Country Club’s driving range have been thrown off course. Carmarthenshire Council recently turned down this proposal due to resident concerns and missing reports. But the story isn’t over yet!
Locals nearby worried about potential noise and increased traffic the courts might bring. One resident mentioned, “We were fine with the golf range—it’s usually quiet. But those new courts could mean constant racket!”
Padel, a fun mix of tennis and squash played on smaller enclosed courts, is all the rage now. Despite the setback, the club has plans to come back stronger. They’ve hired experts to address noise concerns, and there’s talk of using specialised curtains to keep things peaceful for nearby homes.
Oh, and did you know? Over 300 members have already signed a petition supporting the padel courts. Talk about enthusiasm!
With intentions to reapply, the club aims to position the courts further away from homes and bring in an Italian company for the build once they get the green light. Stay tuned for more developments on this sporting saga! 🏸
