For those who don't yet know: What is Padel?

Padel is an energising racket sport, which has taken the world by storm.

It is the fastest growing sport in the world, and once you have played it, you will know why. Nicknamed "Tennis with walls" & "Squash in the sun". Padel combines the best elements of Tennis and Squash and is suitable for all ages.

Padel is typically a doubles sport in an enclosed court, which is roughly 1/3rd, the size of a tennis court (20m x 10m). The surrounding walls are an integral part of the game, allowing players to play off it, resulting in longer and more exciting rallies. The scoring system is the same as tennis.

Padel is an addictive sport that appeals to a wide population. Individuals across all ages can play it. The smaller court makes it a social game improving communication and team bonding.

The short stringless Padel rackets are easier to control as it is much closer to the body. Made from carbon fibre or fibreglass, the strings are replaced with a foam or rubber with holes for an improved aerodynamic performance. The balls used are similar to those in tennis, however, slightly smaller and less bouncy.
