Padel Tennis

Padel Tennis

Padel is growing rapidly and is now also a profile subject at Ranum on the initiative of students who took it in the spring of 2014, when they travelled to Malaga with the subject. The course focuses on both the theoretical and practical elements of the sport, as well as training with a partner and small tournaments between each other, where there is the opportunity to play with different opponents. We also have some fantastic coaches in Fuengirola on the course's journey. The Padel course can easily be combined with cultural encounters and cross-cultural fellowship, so it is expected that the students are interested in using the sport as a doorway to meet other young people and make new friendships.

It would be an advantage if the student has their own padel racket, otherwise the school will provide a racket when playing. In addition to the bat, the student must have the necessary sportswear and suitable indoor shoes.

New local collaboration with large Padel centre

Padel training takes place at Himmerlands Golf and Country Club's new Padel Centre with beautiful courses.
We train twice a week and the other lessons are strength and running training at the school and cultural lessons to prepare us for the visit to Malaga/Fuengirola.

The trip

Journey times:

Departure 4 October

Return journey 8 October

The trip goes to Fuengirola near Malaga in Spain, where the sport of padel has been around for many years. We will be staying at the Myramar Hotel, which is a 3-star hotel. The is a 30-minute drive from the airport and a 15-minute walk from the beach. The hotel has access to a pool area.

We play padel for a minimum of 2 hours every day, where we'll have skilled Spanish coaches for part of the time. We'll also do other things in the local area, where there are plenty of opportunities for excursions with cultural content. One of the days we go to Malaga, where we visit the medieval fortress Alcazaba.

There is only room for 24 students on the Profile course, as there is limited capacity on the profile trip and at the large Padel Centre in Himmerland.
