    The ultimate Dubai Padel guide that are worth a spin

    If there’s one sport that has grown in popularity over the years, it’s Padel Tennis with numerous courts around Dubai.
    While there’s no denying that the sport is gaining momentum in the region, a few people what the game is actually about. Overall, the game is played with solid racquets and a depressurized tennis ball.
    Now, there are several clubs and venues in Dubai that offer padel tennis facilities for players to enjoy. These clubs typically provide well-maintained courts, equipment rental, and coaching services.

    The sport was first invented in 1969 by Enrique Corcuera, a Mexican businessman, at his home in Acapulco, Mexico. As he didn’t have enough space for a full-sized tennis court, so he improvised by creating a smaller court with walls around it. He initially called it “Paddle Corcuera.” The game’s walls were used for rebounds, adding a squash-like element to the sport.
    Eventually, the sport gained global recognition. During the 1990s, padel began to spread to other countries, including France, Italy, and Portugal, while its popularity surged in Spain, which today is the global hub of the sport. The Padel Pro Tour (PPT) was established in Spain in 2005, attracting international attention, with some of the best players coming from Spain and Argentina.
    Today, padel is one of the fastest-growing sports worldwide, with millions of players globally. It’s popular because it’s easier to play than tennis (since the court is smaller and the technique less demanding) and is highly social, usually played in doubles format. The sport’s rise is especially prominent in countries like Sweden and the UAE, and it has become a popular recreational activity in many urban areas worldwide.
    The sport continues to evolve, with an ever-expanding global community of players, including many high-profile athletes and celebrities joining in on the action. so, if you’re thinking of giving this new buzzword in the sporting community a shot, we’re here to help.
    To get back into the fitness game, Emirates Woman has curated the ultimate guide of where to book your next friendly match.
