This venue has fewer than 5 verified player reviews. The Pulse Score is still on the full 40 / 25 / 20 / 5 / 5 / 5 weighting — it will simply sharpen as verified reviews accumulate.
SatellitePadel Project UK Potters Bar offers two floodlit outdoor courts at Old Owen's Sports Ground, with a bar, changing rooms, racket hire, coaching from £55/hr, and easy Playtomic booking.
The Pulse Score is Padel Pulse's independent 0–100 rating of each club. It is the weighted sum of six components: Reviews 40%, Facility 25%, Operational Quality & Transparency 20%, Activity 5%, External refs 5%, Recency 5%. The weighting is published and is the same for every club — clubs cannot pay to raise their score.
Operational Quality & Transparency has three sub-components: profile completeness (60%), review responsiveness (20%) and update recency (20%). Each completeness item's credit is scaled by where the fact came from: club-confirmed ×1.0 · contributor-corroborated ×0.85 · crawled-only ×0.7 — claiming earns nothing by itself; confirmed data earns full credit. Pillars without real signal show “not yet measured” and their weight is redistributed across measured pillars.
The Reviews component blends Padel Pulse verified-player reviews with the club's Google rating — 100% Google when there are no verified reviews, shifting to a 70% verified / 30% Google cap as verified reviews accumulate (cap reached at ~20 verified reviews).
A Provisional tag means a club has fewer than 5 verified player reviews. Its score is still on the full weighting; it will simply sharpen as verified reviews come in.

Facilities and coaching are well-regarded but recurring complaints about absent staff and inaccessible equipment significantly dampen the experience for some visitors.
