🎾 Add activity type: Padel

[dwozn]

Hi, it'd be nice to see Padel as a new activity type 🙂

It's pretty popular in the world and would match racquet sports that has been added recently (thank you for that!):

According to the FIP (International Padel Federation), over 25 million people play padel in over 90 countries around the world.

Thanks

Padel is huge especially in Europe and S America. Much bigger than squash. Please add

It seems that nobody works at Strava anymore.

It’s the fastest growing sport and you can’t record on this platform which is so surprising and such a shame 👎

[mattiapozzo]

Please 🫶🏻 add Padel !!

[Arnoutl]

Come on! Is fastest growing sport!

Pitty that nobody is answering !

Racketball ? Are you serious 

padel is the future guys ! Padel is life after cycling 😄

i spent more than 33 matches this year and I have to choose Racketball which is not my sport

I will stop to pay and be back to the normal Strava

Vous avez raison, c’est un sport qui évolue de plus en plus et on en parle peu, media, centre sportif et Strava.

C’est un sport qui mérite sa place sur Strava.

Please do include padel as an Activity Type on Strava. Its currently one of the fastest growing sports in the world and I would actually think that Strava would be ahead of this and already have it loaded. I am pretty sure there are more people playing padel then some of the other sport activity types loaded here. I currently have to mark my padel games as tennis games so I cannot wait for Strava to have the padel activity type.

I find it completely staggering that despite the overwhelming number of messages posted on the forum supporting the addition of padel, Strava has still done absolutely nothing. Do they not care? Do they hate padel ? Do they (wrongly) think padel is too minor a sport to be included? These are the only explanations I can come up with as it's surely not complicated to add one more racket sport. If pickleball is there padel should definitely be too. I'm a premium subscriber and am seriously considering ending the subscription.

So it’s been a year. How close are we to getting Padel added? @Soren @stravamh 

[CzakOlo]

Perhaps the best way to force adding padel is to cancel the subscription... 😢

Hi Strava Community/Development,

It is nice to see that a lot of different sports are available to log as an activity on Strava.

As I'm a padel player, I would like to ask if it is possible to add Padel as a sports type to choose from. It would be great to log my padel activity.

As I see tennis, picket ball, squash, raquetball, ... I think that padel also has his right to be there in the list. It is  a sport with more than 25 million players worldwide and still growing/booming.

I hope that you will consider this.

Kind regards,

Fabrice

How many kudos are needed to get this fixed in Strava?
