Paddle – a racquet sport. In the United States and Canada, the sport is known as paddle. Padel incorporates elements of both tennis and squash.

The sport originated in Acapulco in Mexico. It was developed by Enrique Corcuera in 1969.The main initiator of the development of padel was Alfonso de Hohenloh, who built the first court at Club Marbella in Spain. The game has become the second most popular sport in the country after football.

In Poland, the Polish Paddle Federation was established. In 2017, a national team was established, which made its debut at the European Championships in Portugal that same year[1].

The name ‘paddle’ comes from the word ‘paddle’. The second name is ‘paddle tennis’, it derives from the racket because it was made of wood and was shaped like a paddle.

Padel court – technical details

A padel court is a place that combines functionality with precise technical requirements. Its dimensions are 10 meters wide and 20 meters long, which makes it more compact than a traditional tennis court. A key element of the court is the net that divides it into two equal halves. The net is in the middle of the court. Service lines on both sides of the net run parallel to the net, 6.95 meters away. The service zone is crossed by an additional central service line that extends 20 centimeters beyond the service lines. Both halves of the court must be perfectly symmetrical, both in terms of the arrangement of lines and surfaces. All lines must be 5 centimeters wide and contrast with the court surface. The most common color used to paint them is white or black. The minimum height of free space above the court to ensure unhindered play is 6 meters.

Padel net – requirements

The net on the padel court is a key element for the game and its specifications are strictly defined. The net is 10 meters long, 88 centimeters high in the middle, and 92 centimeters high at the ends, with a tolerance of 5 millimeters.

On the net, there is a white strip, 5.0 to 6.3 centimeters wide, with the tensioning cable hidden in it. The net is made of synthetic fiber. Its weave must be dense enough to prevent the ball from passing through it. Despite the solid tension, the net should not be stretched to the maximum to ensure smooth play.

Padel ball – specifications

Balls used in padel must meet the requirements set by the International Padel Federation (FIP). They are made of rubber and have a uniform surface in white or yellow. The ball’s diameter ranges from 6.35 to 6.77 centimeters and its weight is between 56.0 and 59.4 grams.

The padel ball has defined bouncing parameters. During a test on a hard surface, it should bounce to a height of 135 to 145 centimeters when lowered from a height of 2.54 meters. The ball’s internal pressure ranges from 4.6 to 5.2 kilograms per 2.54 square centimeters, which gives it its characteristic resilience.

Padel racquet – features

The padel racquet differs from other sports racquets in both shape and construction. It consists of a head and handle and its overall length cannot exceed 45.5 centimeters, with a maximum width of 26 centimeters and a thickness of 38 millimeters (with a tolerance of up to 2.5%).

The surface of the racquet is perforated. Holes with a diameter of 9 to 13 millimeters are arranged centrally with a minimum distance of 4 centimeters from the edge. The racquet can have a smooth or rough surface but must be perfectly flat.

Each racquet is equipped with a safety cord, which has a maximum length of 35 centimeters. For the safety of players, the cord must be obligatorily worn on the wrist during the game.

What is padel?

Padel is one of the fastest growing sports in the world, combining elements of tennis and squash. The game is played on a smaller court surrounded by walls that are an integral part of the game. The walls make padel more dynamic and exciting than traditional racquet games.

Padel is a sport for everyone, regardless of age or skill level. It is very easy to learn the basics, which means that beginners can quickly enjoy the game. On the other hand, padel is a challenge for more experienced players, with unique strategies and techniques.

More and more people are discovering padel as a great way to be physically active, have fun, and build relationships with others. Little wonder that padel courts are springing up like mushrooms. Investors see huge potential in this sport.

Padel rules

The rules of padel are simple. They resemble tennis, but there are a few important differences that add to the game’s unique character.

  1. Court size – A padel court is smaller than a tennis court and surrounded by walls that can be used during play (similar to squash). This means that a ball that bounces off the wall is still in play, which opens up new strategic possibilities.
  2. Equipment – Padel racquets are sturdier and more compact than tennis racquets. Balls are similar to tennis balls, albeit with slightly less pressure.
  3. Rules of scoring – Scoring in padel is the same as in tennis. Sets are played during the game, with two sets needed to win.
  4. Service – The service is underhand, which makes the game more accessible to people of all fitness levels.
  5. Teams – Padel is most often played in pairs, which makes the game a great team sport.

Padel is a dynamic yet tactical game that requires not only agility, but also quick thinking. A combination that makes it engaging!
