What is paddle tenis?

Paddle tennis is a racquet sport that originated in Mexico in the 1960s. It is similar to tennis, but played on a smaller court with lower nets, and with paddles instead of rackets. It is usually played in doubles, though singles can also be played. The scoring system is the same as in tennis.

Paddle tennis can be played on a variety of surfaces such as concrete, asphalt, indoor carpet, and synthetic turf. The paddles used in this sport are made of wood, fiberglass or carbon fiber and are smaller than tennis rackets.

The popularity of paddle tennis has grown over the years, especially in Spain and some South American countries. It is also gaining popularity in the United States, with many clubs and facilities offering paddle tennis courts.

Paddle tennis is a great sport for both recreational and competitive players, as it provides a good workout and can be great for improving hand-eye coordination and reflexes. It is a fun and social sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and skill levels.
