Wantage Tennis Club is looking to enhance its facilities with new padel and pickleball courts, aiming to boost local sports participation.
Wantage: The Wantage Lawn Tennis Club has put forward plans to replace an old tarmac tennis court with new padel and pickleball courts. Sounds exciting, right?
Padel is really taking off worldwide. It’s super popular in Spain and Latin America, and now it’s catching on everywhere, including the UK.
New padel clubs are popping up all over the place, from Germany to Australia. It’s a fun mix of tennis and squash, played on a smaller court surrounded by glass walls.
Players use special racquets and tennis balls, making it a unique experience. The club believes this addition will not only boost sports participation but also bring social and health benefits to the community.
Interestingly, no one from the public has commented on the proposal yet, either for or against it. The club is hopeful that these new courts will enhance the local recreational space.
It’s all about creating more opportunities for outdoor fun and fitness. Who wouldn’t want to join in on that?
