What should I bring to play padel?

For a great padel session, bring a padel racket (though many courts offer rentals), comfortable athletic shoes with good grip, and padel balls. Don't forget water, sunscreen for outdoor courts, and a towel. Many players also bring a change of clothes and extra balls.

Do I need to book padel courts in advance?

It depends on the facility. Some courts operate on a first-come, first-served basis, while others require advance booking, especially during peak hours. Indoor facilities and private clubs typically require reservations. Check each court's details for specific booking requirements.

Are there beginner-friendly padel courts?

Yes! Many facilities welcome players of all skill levels. Look for courts that offer beginner clinics, lessons, or have dedicated beginner hours. Padel is known for being easy to pick up, so don't hesitate to try it even if you're new to the sport.

What are the best times to play padel?

The best time varies by court and season. Indoor courts are available year-round with consistent conditions. For outdoor courts, early morning and evening hours are popular to avoid midday heat in summer. Weekday mornings often attract serious players, while evenings and weekends tend to be busier.
