ft .
area with 7 Padbol courts, making it the largest Padbol academy in the world .
The game’s friendly official Mascot is an American Jaguar called Chivi .
Padbol was created in 2008 in Argentina and is now played in over 30 countries .
It is a fusion sport that combines elements of some of the most popular sports in the world – football, padel tennis, and volleyball .
The playing area is a rectangle court enclosed by 60 sqm of glass and divided by a net in the center .
Padbol is played in pairs with 4 players and the scoring system is the same as tennis .
The ball is served diagonally and the receiving team must return the ball with a minimum of two or a maximum of three touches .
In the game, the ball bounces on the ground and lateral walls in many directions, which gives the game continuity and speed .
The players may use most of their bodies for execution: feet, head, chest, and legs .
This dynamic and competitive sport can be played by both men and women of all ages .
Padbol’s infrastructure is defined in 3 phases – Court, Ball, and Flooring .
The court area is 6×10 meters, both indoor and outdoor .
The floor is a unique, high-tech surface designed to protect the athletes from joint injuries .
The ball used in Padbol is slightly smaller and lighter than a football .
The academy is operational from 7 Am till midnight and is set to host events, tournaments, camps, and training, with plenty of parking right outside the academy .
The academy also provides a cafe, lounge area and shower facilities where they follow strict social distancing norms and hygiene protocols on and off the court .
