Padel balls

Padel balls are slightly smaller and lower pressure than tennis balls. They lose pressure once opened, so most club players open a new tube every three or four sessions. Buy 4 or more tubes and save 10%.

Questions about padel balls

Can you use tennis balls for padel?

You can hit with them, but tennis balls have more internal pressure and bounce higher, which changes the game off the walls. See padel balls vs tennis balls.

How long do padel balls last?

Once the tube is opened they slowly lose pressure. Most players notice a duller bounce after three or four sessions.

Which padel ball is fastest?

Tournament style balls such as HEAD Padel Pro+ and Bullpadel Premium Pro are livelier than club balls such as HEAD Padel Pro S+.
