Padel is a mixture of “tennis with walls” and “squash”.
Padel Tennis is the fastest growing sport in the world and now has over 12 million players around the world, Padel tennis is a doubles game played on an astro turf court that is 20 metres x 10 metres and enclosed on all sides by walls. The walls enable players to play shots off the glass as long as the ball has only bounced once.
The rules:
The rules are broadly the same as tennis, although you serve underhand and the walls are used as part of the game with the ball allowed to bounce off them like with squash.
Padel uses the same scoring system as tennis. The rules allow for the use of the back and sidewalls, which results in longer rallies then in a conventional tennis match. Points are won through strategy rather than by strength and power. You play the best of 3 or 5 sets, and in each set, you have to win 6 games. In a match, points are counted as follows: 0, 15, 30, 40, game. If the score is 40-40, you must win by two points for the game to be decided.
In one set, it is important to come first to 6 won games. If, on the other hand, the score is 5-5, you play to 7 won games. If the score is 6-6, you play a decisive game, called a tie break. Tie break is first played to 7 won points, where you must also win by at least 2 points.
Padel matches should be played on a regulation padel court that is 20m x 10m and is blue, green or terracotta red.
If the ball goes directly into the opponent’s glass wall, it counts as out. Before the ball hits the opponent’s glass wall, it must bounce on the ground.
You can play volleyball (not on serve), half volleyball or let the ball bounce on a glass/lattice wall.
You can also hit the ball on your glass wall to get it over to your opponent’s half of the field.
You must not hit the ball in the grid on your side. The rules in padel are in many cases similar to the rules of tennis, but there are some exceptions, such as rules regarding the walls.
Padel games shall be played between two pairs of players using regulation padel racquets.
Each match begins with a serve, which must be done underarm but like tennis must go diagonally into the opponent’s court.
Both teams must attempt to score more points than their opponents.
Matches are made up of 3 sets, with each set made up of 6 games. The winners of 2 out of the 3 sets will be declared winners of the padel match.
The opposition wins a point when any of the following occurs:
The ball bounces twice.
The ball strikes you or a teammate.
The ball hits the wire fencing or another fixture before going over the net or going into the opponent’s court (out of bounds).
The Court:
Paddle Tennis is played on an enclosed court, surrounded by walls of glass and metallic mesh about a third of the size of a tennis court.
Positions:
It can be played in groups of mixed ages and abilities as it is not dominated by strength, technique or serve. An important skill is match-craft, as points are won by strategy instead of by sheer strength and power. It is played mainly in a doubles format (2 Teams of 2).
