Padel is a racquet sport played in doubles on an enclosed court that is smaller than a tennis court. It has walls surrounding the court that players can hit the ball off of, similar to squash. While the scoring is like tennis, padel uses solid stringless racquets and lower pressure balls. To play, you need a padel racquet, balls, a partner, and comfortable sport clothes like shoes, leggings, and shirts. Padel is a different sport than tennis despite some superficial similarities, with unique court dimensions, rules, and styles of play.
