Watch Every Court Live: Padel, Badminton, Table Tennis

You can watch every streamed court of a Premier Padel, BWF badminton or WTT table tennis event live, but mostly in the early rounds: each organiser puts its courts or tables on its official YouTube channel as separate live streams (@PremierPadelOfficial, @BWF and @WTTGlobal), and later rounds narrow to single matches or move to rights holders. Open the channel's live tab, put each court stream side by side in one grid, keep them muted and move the sound to whichever match is closest. Upcoming dates in November 2026 include the Emaar Dubai Premier Padel P1 (8 to 15 November), the Kumamoto Masters Japan (10 to 15 November) and the LI-NING Hong Kong Open (17 to 22 November).

Why do racket sports stream court by court?

Padel, badminton and table tennis tournaments start with large draws played on several courts at once. One broadcast feed can't show them all, so the organisers stream each court as its own live video. For a fan, that means the early days of a tournament are the days with the most live play available, and the hardest to follow on a single screen.

Court counts and geo-blocks change from event to event and even from video to video, so treat the details below as a pattern to check against official sources.

Which federations stream individual courts, and for how long?

	Premier Padel	BWF World Tour	World Table Tennis
YouTube channel	@PremierPadelOfficial	@BWF (BWF TV)	@WTTGlobal
What's split	One stream per court, with English and Spanish feeds for the main court	"Day N, Court N" streams	One stream per table plus the main arena, split into sessions
What we saw	4 to 6 streams (3 to 5 courts) at the two events we checked	Courts 1 to 3 or 1 to 4, depending on the event	Tables 2 to 4 plus the arena at China Smash 2026
How long the split lasts	Rounds 1 to 3, before the quarter-finals	Early rounds, still seen on quarter-final day	Qualifying days and main-draw days
Later rounds	Red Bull TV and regional broadcasters	Single-match videos (QF, SF, F)	Not confirmed; check the live tab
Geo-blocks	Yes, in countries where a local broadcaster holds the rights	Yes, varies by event	Yes, the table stream we checked was blocked in some countries

Premier Padel

Premier Padel streams each court as its own YouTube live stream in the early rounds. During the Alpine Paris Major (6 to 13 September 2026), the channel's streams on 9 and 10 September covered Centre Court, Pista Central, Suzanne Lenglen, Court 5, Court 6 and Court 7. At the Rotterdam P2 (27 September to 4 October), it ran Centre Court, Pista Central, Court 2 and Court 3. Centre Court and Pista Central are the same court with English and Spanish commentary, so pick one to avoid filling two tiles with one match.

Premier Padel's where-to-watch page lists its YouTube channel for rounds 1 to 3 and Red Bull TV for the quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals, plus regional rights holders such as beIN, Sport TV, Sky Italia, Movistar, Canal+ and ESPN. Red Bull's own guide says the same: for the rounds before the quarter-finals, follow the action on Premier Padel's YouTube channel. Red Bull TV's livestream is not available in some countries, including France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Poland, so from the quarter-finals on, use whichever official broadcaster covers your country.

The YouTube court streams can be blocked too. A Rotterdam Pista Central stream was unavailable in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Poland, Hungary and Vietnam, and several Rotterdam replays were blocked in the Netherlands and Portugal. The list changes by event and by video.

Remaining 2026 dates on the FIP calendar: Emaar Dubai Premier Padel P1, 8 to 15 November (Dubai, UTC+4); Mexico Major, 23 to 29 November (Acapulco, UTC-6); Premier Padel Finals, 10 to 13 December (Barcelona).

BWF badminton

BWF TV streams HSBC BWF World Tour events court by court in the early rounds, with titles such as "LI-NING China Masters 2026 | Day 1 | Court 1 | Round of 32" or "YONEX Taipei Open 2026 | Day 1 | Court 4 | Qualification/Round of 32". Court numbers in the titles went up to Court 4 at the Taipei Open and Court 3 at the China Masters. Court streams were still running on quarter-final day ("Day 4 | Court 3 | Quarterfinals | Session 1"), and the quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals also appear as single-match videos.

The stream descriptions explain blocking directly: if a stream is geo-blocked in your country, "that is because the rights for this tournament has been sold to a broadcaster in your country." The Taipei Open court streams, for example, were blocked in Taiwan and open elsewhere. BWF publishes a Where To Watch page for each event with its broadcast list; check it before the tournament starts.

Late-2026 World Tour events from the BWF calendar: YEOSU VICTOR Korea Open, 3 to 8 November (Super 500, UTC+9); Kumamoto Masters Japan, 10 to 15 November (Super 500, UTC+9); LI-NING Hong Kong Open, 17 to 22 November (Super 500, UTC+8); Syed Modi India International, 24 to 29 November (Super 300, UTC+5:30); HSBC BWF World Tour Finals in Hangzhou, 9 to 13 December.

World Table Tennis

WTT streams each table separately on @WTTGlobal, with titles like "LIVE! | T2 | Day 1 | China Smash 2026 | Session 1", plus a main stream from the "Infinity ∞ Arena". At China Smash in Beijing (qualifying 1 to 3 October, main draw 4 to 11 October 2026), the channel ran separate streams for tables 2, 3 and 4 on each qualifying day and scheduled the arena plus the same three tables for the opening main-draw day. Olympics.com notes that besides WTT's broadcasters, action is available on the World Table Tennis live stream, and that geo-restrictions may apply.

Those restrictions are real on YouTube as well. A China Smash table stream we checked was unavailable in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Japan and Romania.

One practical catch: WTT splits each day into Session 1 and Session 2, and each session is a new video. A grid saved during Session 1 will point to finished streams once Session 2 starts. For upcoming WTT dates, check worldtabletennis.com, as we haven't confirmed the next events from an official page.

How do you pick which court gets the sound?

Most courts can stay silent; the question is where to put the audio.

For padel, the stream description helps. Premier Padel lists each court's order of play in the description, for example "Match 1 — Starting (12:00)", then "Not before (15:00)" and "Not before (18:30)". These are tournament times, normally local to the venue; check the tournament page if in doubt. At a Dubai event (UTC+4), "Not before 15:00" would mean 11:00 UTC at the earliest. Read the descriptions at the start of the day and note which court has the top seeds.

During play, a few signals tell you when to move the sound:

• A seeded pair or player drops the opening set.
• A match reaches a deciding set or game.
• A court goes to a tiebreak or a long deuce game while the others are between points.

In badminton and table tennis, leave the main arena or Court 1 audible by default and move away when another court gets tight.

What we see in multi-stream grids

From our own data: 66% of ViewGrid sessions run three or more streams. In a sample of 2,392 grids from 3 September to 3 October 2026, YouTube was in 65% of grids and 36% of grids held 5 or more streams. In a separate organic sample from 20 to 21 September, 17% of grids with 3+ streams stayed open past an hour, against 4% of one-stream grids. That's a correlation, not proof that more streams make people watch longer.

How to watch it on ViewGrid

ViewGrid plays each stream inside YouTube's official embedded player. It does not host or re-stream any video.

1. On the opening day of the tournament, open the organiser's YouTube live tab: Premier Padel, BWF or WTT. If ViewGrid lists the tournament on /events, its event page has a ready-made grid built from the official channel.
2. Copy each court or table link and paste it into a grid on viewgrid.tv. You can run up to 20 streams on desktop and 6 on a phone, so a six-stream padel day or a three-table WTT session plus the arena fits on a phone. If you use Chrome, Edge or Firefox, the ViewGrid extension has an "Open channel grid" button on a YouTube channel page that opens all of that channel's live streams at once.
3. Keep every tile muted, then unmute the court you want to hear. Mute it again when you move to another match.
4. Rebuild the grid each day or session. WTT starts a new video for every session, and BWF moves to single-match videos around the quarter-finals.
5. Save the grid to your account, and follow the organiser's channel on your live home (/home) to see when it goes live. You can follow up to 50 Twitch, YouTube and Kick channels.
6. If a court shows as unavailable, a local broadcaster holds the rights in your country. Watch that match through them.

Some videos have embedding turned off by their owner; we saw this on several Premier Padel replays. Those won't play inside any embedded player, including a ViewGrid grid, so watch them on YouTube instead. For a padel-specific walkthrough of one tour stop, see our Rotterdam P2 guide.

Frequently asked questions

Can I watch every court of a padel or badminton tournament for free?

You can watch the courts the organiser streams on YouTube, mostly in the early rounds, where your country isn't geo-blocked. From the quarter-finals on, Premier Padel moves to Red Bull TV and regional broadcasters, and BWF TV shifts towards single-match videos.

Why is a court stream unavailable in my country?

A local broadcaster usually holds the rights for that tournament in your country, so the stream is blocked there. Use that broadcaster to watch, and check the event's official where-to-watch page.

Are Centre Court and Pista Central different courts at Premier Padel?

No, they're the same court with English (Centre Court) and Spanish (Pista Central) commentary. Pick one for your grid so you don't show the same match twice.

How many courts can I watch at once on a phone?

ViewGrid supports up to 6 streams on a phone and up to 20 on desktop. That covers a six-stream padel day or three WTT tables plus the main arena on a phone.

Why did my saved table tennis grid stop working later in the day?

WTT splits each day into sessions, and every session starts a new video. Open the @WTTGlobal live tab again and add the new table streams.

What time do the matches start?

Premier Padel lists each court's order of play in the stream description, in tournament time, normally local to the venue. Convert it to your time zone, for example Dubai is UTC+4 and Acapulco is UTC-6.
