ProvalumeWhat is padel?
Padel is a racket sport played mainly as doubles on a court about half the size of a tennis court, enclosed by glass walls. The ball can be played off the walls, rallies last longer than in tennis, and the underhand serve makes it easy for beginners to enjoy from day one. Born in Mexico and hugely popular in Spain, it is now one of the fastest-growing sports in the world.
