Abstract

The aim of this study was to as-sess padel facilities and its characteristics in the Autonomous Community of Extremadura according to the number of inhabitants. The totality of the padel courts built in this area was registered considering property, structure, the pavement surface and the location. The results show a total of 649 padel courts in Extremadura (409 in province of Badajoz and 240 in province of Cáceres). Public fa-cilities account for the 50% of the to-tal, however we found large differ-ences between the provinces (44,25% in Badajoz and 57,92% in Cáceres). Likewise, similar density were observed between provinces but not when comparing districts. Regarding court characteristics, there were a prevalence of artificial turf, glass enclosure and outdoor location.
