Padel Sports Is More Popular, Insurance Is Something Business Managers Need To Pay Attention To

JAKARTA - The increasing public interest in padel sports is increasingly opening up new opportunities in the lifestyle and fitness business sector.

Pedel field facilities are now increasingly mushrooming as interest in sports that are easy to play and recreational in nature increases.

However, in the midst of the proliferation of providers of padel facilities, operational management and business risks are of special concern. To anticipate this, a number of general insurance service providers, such as PT Asuransi Mitra Perlindung Mustika (MPMinsurance) offer protection for physical assets, user accidents, and third party legal responsibility.

"Business actors need to realize that behind chances, there are always risks and we need to manage those risks," said MPMinsurance Marketing Director Poppy Panca, in a press release, Wednesday, July 30, 2025.

In the context of padel field management or other sports facilities, there are various types of risks that must be anticipated, such as physical damage to buildings, player injuries, as well as the emergence of claims of third party legal responsibility to business owners.

In addition, operational disturbances such as damage or theft of sports equipment and temporary closure are also challenges. If not prepared with adequate protection, it can have an impact on business continuity.

"We present a variety of service features that can help them understand from the start how much protection is needed and how much the premium costs are so that they can make decisions more quickly," he said.

Poppy also said that her party is developing a number of digital-based services, such as WhatsApp Business, auto-reply social media, as well as features of online premium simulation calculators on official websites.

"We believe that proper protection from the start is not only to protect assets, but also to maintain overall business sustainability," he said.
