Padel has been growing into a fun addictive sport, not just for groups of friends, but has become a perfect avenue for corporate team outings. Team lunches or dinners with a dash of Padel adds to the fun, without making it too sweaty or exhausting as other outdoor sports, and without being too passive and laid back as the indoor recreational sports.

However, with the outdoor Padel courts comes a very usual problem. You don’t want to get sweaty, sunburnt or dehydrated playing in the sun. You cannot play in the rains either. During the day, the weather has to have just the right shade of clouds for the outing to be an enjoyable. The nights, of course, have to be rain-free.

The beauty of Padel is that it can be played both indoors and outdoors. Padel-crazy cities have a mix of indoor and outdoor Padel courts. While the outdoor courts allow you a breath of fresh air, a glimpse of the skies and an open feeling, it is highly vulernable to the vicissitude of the weather.

Indoor courts provide you the right solution of it. While it may not give an open feeling that an outdoor court does, yet, with the right mix of lighting, space and air-conditioning, an indoor Padel Court would allow Padel enthusiasts to be able to play the sport for long hours, without worrying about the scorching sun or lashing rains.

Indoor Padel Courts are perfect for groups of friends as well as for team outings. The entire team can enjoy the game comfortably, either as a player or a spectator. Indoor Padel Courts make waiting for your turn more fun. It allows for the non-playing members of the team to enjoy being spectators. Teams can spend hours playing friendly matches or mini-tournaments, create fun-games around Padel for an enhanced team-building experience.

Indoor Courts have turned various other games, like skiing into social acts. The closed, cosy environment with a cool temperature and flood lights make bonding and interactions more comfortable. The sheer capability of being able to spend hours together, even in large groups, either playing or watching or just hanging around, is a sufficient enabler for making the addiction for Padel totally immune to the elements of the Nature.

Even for serious professional players, playing outdoors involves dealing with heavy winds, wet courts, wet balls and wet glass walls – all of these create a lot of nuisance and unwanted distraction from the sport. Indoor Padel Courts are perfect for serious practice sessions, matches and long-duration tournaments.

Welcome to an uninterrupted, round-the-clock, round-the-year Padel experience with the Indoor Padel Courts in your city. May the addiction begin …

The post Benefits of Indoor Padel Courts vs Outdoor Padel Courts appeared first on InPadel | India Padel | Promoting Padel throughout India.

Although relaxed playing is in itself a great means to a fit and stress-free lifestyle, competitive sports takes it one notch higher. It is evident that even while playing as a pastime, rallying and hitting around purposelessly is far less intense and fun than playing for points. Playing formal matches and tournaments goes one step further. It inspires one to bring the best of their physical prowess, mental focus and emotional fire into one single package – zeal to win.

Many professionals who have been participating in the Padel tournaments in the last few months did experience a rekindling of that fire in the belly, that desire to compete and win all over again. It motivates them to fight it out to the end, never give up, think strategically and give in their best in their quest to win even those matches when they are pitted against better players. Participating in tournaments accelerated their skill-development many many times. In the last few months that we have been conducting regular Padel tournaments, the overall Padel skill quotient in India has escalated to the next level.

Adding to that, a sporting League belongs to a totally different league – literally. Unlike 1-day tournaments, where players go through shorter formats, which gives very little chance to recover from inadvertent errors, a League provides everyone ample time to recover from mistakes, giving everyone a fair chance to goof up and still get back into their game. A League consists of full matches, and hence both teams have sufficient chances to experiment, make mistakes, learn and improve while the match is on. You play only one match per week, and so you have enough time to plan and strategize for your next match. You could watch your opponents’ matches and build your strategy against each of them. The whole league is spread over 3 months which could see your skills skyrocketing to a whole new level by the team the end of the league approaches.

ABOUT PADEL

A mix of Tennis & Squash, Padel is an energising racket sport that has taken the world by storm. Invented in 1969, in Mexico, it is played in doubles on an enclosed court made of glass and wire mesh and is thus nicknamed as ‘’Tennis with walls’’ & ‘’Squash in the sun.’’ It has gained immense popularity in the recent years, and is now played in over 30 countries across 5 countries by over 20 million participants and is officially the Fastest Growing Sport in the World.

The exciting nature of the sport also allows it to be enjoyed by families and group of friends.’’ For Bhavish, bringing Padel to India has been a dream come true.
