## Resource

A Scottish family farm in East Lothian is winning a major planning battle to build padel courts — a fast-growing sport gaining global traction. Initially rejected by local planners who claimed it wasn’t “rural recreation,” the Logans rallied support from farming groups, Tennis Scotland, and landowners arguing that rural economies need diversification to survive. They emphasized how access to sport boosts community health, attracts visitors, and supports local businesses — especially in tough agricultural times. After heated debate, the council’s review body voted 3-2 to approve the project, paving the way for a new recreational hub that could revitalize the farm and serve surrounding communities.
