PADEL INJURIES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recently read that padel was one of the fastest growing sports in the world right now. Up and down the country there are many sports clubs opening new padel courts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So why is there such an increase in popularity? Well for one thing, it brings people together. It\u2019s sociable, it\u2019s new and fun, and it can be enjoyed by people of all skill levels and a wide age range. And of course it is a great way to work out as it it\u2019s fast-paced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is the latest hobby for many of the Formula 1 drivers, with Max Verstappen, Lando Norris, and Carlos Sainz often seen playing matches on the padel courts. A good way to channel their competitive nature when they are not on the racing track!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have posted recently about injuries in tennis and football and other sports, so with padels\u2019 popularity increasing, I thought it would be beneficial to discuss potential injuries as, like with any sport, injuries are a possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
