Tennis & Padel Club Den Bruul Geel

KGTP Den Bruul was founded in 1958 and has more than 1,000 members, making it one of the largest sports clubs in Geel. The club is located on the edge of the Belse Bossen and added padel to its offering in 2021, a discipline that became so popular that membership is currently capped. Head coaches Thomas Hendrickx and Jens Van den Broeck completed their youth training at the tennis centre of KTC Diest, where they trained alongside Kim Clijsters, Kirsten Flipkens and Ruben Bemelmans.

The tennis and padel school receives the quality labels 'Youth-Friendly Tennis Club' and 'Accredited Kids Tennis School' from Tennis en Padel Vlaanderen on an annual basis. Multimove Tennis starts from age 3, padel lessons for kids from age 6. The club organises summer camps every year combining tennis, padel and multisport, including an overnight stay for the older youth groups. For companies, padel introductions and tournaments are available with guidance from qualified coaches.
