The artificial turf surface used on padel courts.
Definition
Padel grass (or padel turf) is the primary playing surface for padel courts—a synthetic, reinforced grass-like material that provides consistent bounce, reduced ball speed compared to hard courts, and player safety. The surface requires regular maintenance (infill, brushing) to preserve its playability and durability.
Origin: English: 'padel grass', the sport-specific synthetic turf material.
All professional and most recreational padel courts use this surface; GCC venues predominantly feature indoor AC courts with premium padel turf.
Padel grass is softer and slower, reducing injury risk and slowing the game for control-oriented play. Hard courts are faster.
Yes—it produces lower, more consistent bounces than hard courts, which is core to padel's tactical nature.
