If you have never heard about padel before, don't worry, you're not alone, but get ready, everything you thought before is going to change. Padel is a rapidly expanding sport that is taking the world by storm and for good reason. It's what you get when you combine tennis and squash with a social, fun and easy-to-learn twist. That is padel!
Whether you are looking for something fun to do on the weekend with your kids, looking for a way to stay active that does not involve a gym, or just his/ her first sport to try with friends, padel is exactly what you need!
Here’s Why Families and Beginners Enjoy It So Much:
1. Very Easy To Learn
Padel is designed to be easy to learn. No perfect technique or years worth of practice are needed to have fun. Most people can learn the basics in their first session, providing a good introduction for children, teens and adults. It is a great first sport for children, and an excellent option for adults who have never played tennis or squash before.
2. Suitable for All Ages
Padel is very inclusive. Families embrace it because everyone can participate, and unlike more demanding, fast-paced sports that require a high level of fitness or coordination, Padel is easy on the body and still provides a good workout.
3. Social and Fun
Because Padel is always played in doubles, it is inherently social. Padel is a great facilitating sport for socializing amongst families, and kids can have fun getting to know each other. The games are short, fast-paced and contain more action than a traditional sport, meaning there is never a dull moment on court.
4. Great for Fitness (without it feeling like fitness)
Let’s be honest—not everyone loves lifting weights and going to the gym. Padel is enjoyable in a sneaky way; you’ll find yourself running, lunging, swinging and sweating, but by the end of the session you’ve just had the best time that you won’t realize how hard you have worked. For young people and families who are looking to stay active, great fitness and fun in one.
5. It’s About Community
One of the best things about padel is mostly the friendly feel to padel and the court or club. Clubs and courts normally have a great communal feel from their social tournaments, junior coaching, and easy options for everyone., you can be assured connection in a leisure, corporate or community guided event.
For all family sizes and levels, would you like to give it a go? If you’re looking for something new as a family, or a beginner who is looking for a sport that is fun and friendly and the added health benefits, then padel is for you.
Who knows, within no time you might discover your new sport!
