Can you play padel in the rain?

No, this is not recommended. The main reason for this is because it is not good for your padel racket. In this blog, Justpadel.nl will explain why it is not good for your padel racket to play padel in the rain.

Why is rain not good for your padel racket?

As soon as you start playing padel in the rain, your padel racket begins to absorb a lot of moisture. The core of your padel racket consists of foam, which absorbs moisture from the rain. Absorbing moisture weakens your racket, eventually causing cracks to form in the racket head. 

That is why Justpadel.nl recommends playing on an indoor court on rainy days. There, you will never be bothered by bad weather conditions, so you can enjoy playing padel without damaging your racket.

Can you play padel in frosty conditions?

Yes, in principle you can play padel all year round as long as it is dry. However, winter conditions can affect the playability of the padel court. For example, as soon as there is snow on the court, the ball will no longer bounce properly. In these weather conditions, you cannot play padel outdoors.
