Padel

Padel is a racquet sport that combines the elements of tennis and squash. It is only played in doubles and is practiced outdoors as much as indoors.

Padel is played like tennis, however the court is enclosed with glass walls and mesh fencing, the glass walls can be used in a similar way as in squash.

The balls are similar to tennis balls, and the rackets are similar to an enlarged table tennis bat.


Social

  • Padel is an amazing social activity, share the court with a few friends and split the cost.


    Work together with your match partner to take control of the game and have fun at the same time!

Easy

  • Anyone can pick up Padel and start having fun. The serve is underarm, the racket is easy to manouver and aim, and the rebound walls keep the ball in the court.


    All you need are sports clothes, shoes, and a few friends. We supply rackets and padel balls.


    Book a court and you're ready to go!

Fun

  • In a competitive environment, Padel is an explosive, intense battle of physical strategy.
