I was talking to my friend in Belgium and he mentioned he was on his way to play padel.

What's so special about it and what makes it different from regular tennis?

I have a Swedish friend and she recently started playing. It seems like an easier to pick up and learn sport than Tennis. I think most people are starting it because it's a good/fun cardio workout.

Thank you!

someone finally answered haha. have you tried it?

My Belgian friends says I will love it and become acquainted when I move back to Europe. I'm not naturally athletic but I have had several years of tennis lessons when I was a kid and my folks were trying to find a sport I would like.

What's the attire? typical tennis wear. I dont want to look silly first time I play. I could always go conservative in a polo and linen shorts.

I haven't played myself but from what I've seen it's typical tennis or gym wear. It's slower than tennis with small courts so it's easier to pick up. Give it a try if you have a padel club near you.

My Italian colleague plays. He says it’s a great stress reliever. He’s posted videos of him at the court and it’s all Italian men of various ages. Most of them have money so they’re retired or make passive income that they can go to the court daily to play. Could be a good place to pick up a monied man.
