Your Babolat Range - How to choose the correct racket for you!

Babolat is the only Padel supplier that has a range of rackets with clear distinctions based on your preferred playing style.

- Red = Power Rackets
- Blue = Versatility Rackets
- Yellow = Precision Rackets
- Stima Range = Female friendly rackets (lighter)
- Alioth Rackets = Junior Racket Range

The price range from left to right is usually dependent upon materials used in the construction of the rackets - carbon vs. fiberglass. More expensive rackets does not always mean best, entry level rackets for beginners are usually more suitable than the advanced rackets as advanced rackets need a significantly higher skill level to get the most out of the functional features. When choosing a racket it helps to know where the 'sweet spot' is... it is directly in-line with widest part of the racket, on power rackets this is close to the top of the racket, and found lower on the versatility and precision rackets.

In terms of racket longevity, fibreglass rackets have greater longevity than carbon-flex rackets, if a padel player is playing 2-3x p/week with carbon-racket, recommended that change rackets 2-3x p/year for optimum performance.

Carbon fiber (stiff, powerful, durable) and fiberglass (flexible, comfortable, forgiving) offer fundamentally different performance in padel rackets, suited for different skill levels. Carbon provides maximum power and immediate, precise feedback for advanced players, while fiberglass offers a softer, "trampoline effect" that boosts ball output on slower hits and protects the arm.

For all your racket needs, please do ask a member of staff for support in choosing a racket, our demo range allows you try different options so you can make an informed choice prior to looking at your own personal racket. All racket purchases come with free cover.

⚽ Wedneday Night 5s Results Division 2 - Match Day 7⚽
🏆Woodburn Wanderers 13 - 14 Morgan Philips🏆 🏅Man of the Match: Lewis (Morgan Philips)
Woodburn 2 up at half-time could not hold the lead in the cold and wet rain tonight. In a 27 goal thriller, 2 very good teams battled it out and have no doubts both teams will be fighting it out for league title and promotion.
🏆Wintroverts 18 – 4 Scheme Maws FC 🏆 🏅Man of the Match: Jack (Wintroverts)
Scheme Maws first outing in the Wednesday league, already looking to change their name in week 1 as they came up with it on a night out after one too many lager-shandies! Wintroverts back to full strength this week and showing up big with goals from all over the team. Look out for Ed’s post-match interview landing soon.
🏆Borussia Teeth 0-10 Lawshank Redemption 🏆 🏅Man of the Match: N/A
Borussia ironically had a date with the dentist this week, Having source Jamie the team captain some new blood from our free agents list, I am sure they will be back in action next week!
🏆Vacancy 0 - 10 Young Niddrie Ballers 🏆 🏅Man of the Match: N/A
Young Niddrie Ballers won the friendship war with Standing Order, so much so, they scared them out of the league. We wish the lads well and will no doubt see some of the Standing Order Boys in the Young Niddrie Ballers lineups in future weeks.
