Padel and tennis have become popular in Canggu, attracting both holidaymakers trying something new and expatriates who play every week. Before stepping onto the court, you need a suitable racket and the right equipment. This guide focuses on two dedicated retailers for rackets and accessories in Canggu: Metro Tennis Terminal Canggu and Agena Sports Canggu.
Unlike the small pro shops found inside some padel clubs or tennis venues, these are standalone retailers focused on buying, renting and maintaining rackets. Here is an overview of their products and services.
Metro Tennis Terminal is an established name in Indonesian racket retail. Founded in 1977, it is known as Indonesia’s first specialist tennis shop and an early provider of digital stringing services. Its expansion into Bali, including Canggu, gives island-based players an alternative to ordering online or relying on shops in Jakarta.
Its range covers several racket sports. Tennis rackets span international brands and models for beginners through to professional tour players. The company is also an official distributor of Babolat and Yonex in Indonesia. Alongside tennis, it sells padel and badminton rackets and pickleball paddles, reflecting the latter sport’s growing popularity among Canggu’s expatriate community.
Apparel and accessories include sports shirts and shorts, court shoes, racket bags, overgrips, strings and racket protectors. Serious players also come for digital-machine stringing, regripping, grommet replacement and racket weight adjustments tailored to their preferences.
Agena Sports describes itself as Indonesia’s first physical retailer combining racket rental, purchase and try-before-you-buy services in one place. After opening branches in Jakarta, it expanded into Canggu to serve the area’s growing tennis and padel community. The source guide lists four physical stores across Jakarta and Bali.
Its range covers tennis, padel and pickleball. Rackets and paddles are sold with an authenticity guarantee and money-back policy. The shop also buys and sells used rackets that meet its quality standards, giving shoppers a more affordable option.
Apparel includes sportswear, court shoes and accessories such as grips, strings and racket bags. A key feature is its free racket demo service: you can test different models on court before deciding which feels most comfortable.
As both branches are relatively new in the source guide, it recommends that you:
Once you have a new racket or freshly tensioned strings, move between your equipment shop, favourite padel court and post-game cafe with transport that fits your plans. Bikini Garage Bali offers luxury rental cars for travelling around the island.
For a group with racket bags and other equipment, consider the spacious Alphard Transformer. A MINI Cooper or Mustang Convertible offers distinctive styling for shop and cafe visits, while a Jeep Rubicon suits a bolder look. For classic luxury, explore Mercedes-Benz and BMW options, or choose a Porsche for a sporty driving experience.
