PADEL1969’s Post

Why is Padel the UK's fastest growing Sport and Tennis appears to be in decline? 🎾 Let's start with a little context👇 After 6 weeks of Padel, I played Tennis over the weekend... I've played tennis for 30 years with a decent technical and physical skill level. It's traditional that me and a few friends play on Wimbledon Men's Final day - we battled for 3 hours in drizzle which proved challenging conditions. I'm certainly no stranger to court size, service elements, and length of match, however... I found it hard to adjust and the points were often short and not as 'fun' as they were in the Padel matches I've played recently. As we sat watching the Wimbledon Final, our bodies and egos a little battered and bruised I started to reflect... What are the key differences between Padel and Tennis? 🎾 Padel is typically easier for beginners to pick up than tennis, as it requires less technical and physical prowess. 🎾 Padel offers a more social and doubles-centric experience. 🎾 Padel is often more inclusive and brings the local community together. 🎾 Padel can be played in 1 hour, is a quicker game-style and the ball is in play for longer.
