In recent years, padel has rapidly gained popularity as a dynamic racket sport that combines elements of tennis and squash. This sport, which has reached large audiences, especially in Spain and Latin America, is also attracting increasing interest in our country.
What is Padel?
Padel was invented in Mexico in 1969 by Enrique Corcuera. It can be described as a combination of tennis and squash. Played in doubles (four players), the game uses perforated, short-handled padel rackets and balls similar to tennis balls. Padel courts are enclosed by glass and metal fencing, measuring 10x20 meters, and players can strategically use the walls during the game.

Artificial turfs enhance player performance with anti-slip and fast-movement features while minimizing potential injuries with their shock-absorbing structure. At WePadel, we provide high-quality and durable artificial turf options.
