What Do You Wear to Play Paddle?

As with any sport, the clothing you wear while playing paddle tennis can make a big difference in your comfort and performance. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when choosing your paddle tennis wardrobe:

• Opt for comfortable, breathable fabrics that will wick away sweat. Synthetics like polyester or nylon are ideal, but natural fibers like cotton can also work well. Avoid materials that will absorb moisture and weigh you down, such as denim or wool.

• Choose clothing that won't restrict your range of motion. You'll want to be able to swing freely and smoothly, so form-fitting clothes are a good choice. However, avoid anything too tight or constricting, as this can impede your movement.

• In general, it's best to dress in layers so you can adjust to the temperature and conditions on the court. A light base layer, followed by a mid-layer like a long-sleeve shirt or jacket, will help you regulate your body temperature no matter how hot or cold it is outside.

• If you're playing at a private or semi-private club, make sure to ask the Pro Shop if there is a dress code and, if so, make sure you align your wardrobe choices with the guidelines. For example, a good question to ask is whether or not the Club's dress-code requires tennis attire to be the color white.
