How would you like to up your padel game, or try out this booming sport for the first time with a fabulous new padel racket? We’ve teamed up with Padium, the leading destination for an elevated padel sports experience, to give one lucky reader the chance to win a premium racket – worth £340!
Padel is one of the fastest-growing sports in the world, but its appeal goes far beyond the game itself. Easy to start, fun to learn and naturally social, it has become a sport for people looking for a new way to move, connect and enjoy being active without it feeling intimidating.
With this in mind, Padium has created a club environment where padel sits at the centre of a wider lifestyle experience. Whether you are completely new to the sport, looking for a fresh fitness routine or simply want to try something social and energising, Padium’s clubs have been designed to make the game feel welcoming from the very first visit.
Padel is also appealing because you do not need to be an experienced player to enjoy it. The game is fast-paced and exciting, but also accessible, making it ideal for beginners, social players and anyone looking to add something new to their lifestyle.
What you’ll win
One lucky BALANCE prizewinner will receive a Babolat Viper Juan Lebrón 3.0 FW padel racket, a premium racket from Babolat’s latest Juan Lebrón range.
Designed for advanced and competitive players with an attacking style of play, this racket is built for explosive power, high responsiveness and precision. Inspired by padel star Juan Lebrón’s powerful game, it features a diamond-shaped head, 3K carbon surface, carbon frame and Hard EVA core, helping players generate speed, power and a strong response on impact.
The racket also includes Babolat’s Dynamic Stability System, designed to increase stability and power by adding stiffness to the frame, as well as a textured surface to help players apply spin to their shots. It has a head-heavy balance, 38mm thickness and a weight of 370g +/- 10g.
It’s a standout prize for any padel player looking to upgrade their game with a high-performance racket from one of the sport’s leading brands.
