نُورَةُ تَلْعَبُ الْبَادِلَ

نُورَةُ السُّلَيْمَان مِنَ الرِّيَاضِ، وَعُمْرُهَا خَمْسٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ سَنَةً. كَانَتْ نُورَةُ تَلْعَبُ التِّنِسَ. وَهِيَ تَلْعَبُ الْبَادِلَ مُنْذُ ثَلَاثِ سَنَوَاتٍ تَقْرِيبًا. رَجَعَتْ نُورَةُ إِلَى السُّعُودِيَّةِ قَبْلَ شَهْرَيْنِ. وَوَجَدَتْ فِي الرِّيَاضِ نَادِيًا لِلْبَادِلِ، اسْمُهُ «بَادِل رَش». تَقُولُ نُورَةُ: أَنَا سَعِيدَةٌ جِدًّا، وَأَلْتَقِي بِنَاسٍ جُدُدٍ. الْبَادِلُ لُعْبَةٌ بِالْمِضْرَبِ وَالْكُرَةِ، مِثْلُ التِّنِسِ. فِي الْمُبَارَاةِ فَرِيقَانِ، وَفِي كُلِّ فَرِيقٍ لَاعِبَانِ. فَفِي الْمُبَارَاةِ أَرْبَعَةُ لَاعِبِينَ. وَحَوْلَ الْمَلْعَبِ جُدْرَانٌ، وَالْكُرَةُ تَرْتَدُّ عَنْهَا. النَّادِي يُرَحِّبُ بِاللَّاعِبِينَ مِنْ كُلِّ الْأَعْمَارِ. وَأَكْثَرُ اللَّاعِبِينَ يَتَعَلَّمُونَ الْأَسَاسِيَّاتِ فِي نِصْفِ سَاعَةٍ. وَفِي النَّادِي مُسَابَقَاتٌ بَيْنَ الْأَعْضَاءِ. وَنُورَةُ سَعِيدَةٌ بِهَذِهِ الْمُسَابَقَاتِ أَيْضًا.

Nura Al-Soleiman is from Riyadh, and she is thirty-five years old. Nura used to play tennis. And she has played padel for about three years. Nura came back to Saudi Arabia two months ago. And she found a padel club in Riyadh, called “Padel Rush”. Nura says: I am very happy, and I meet new people. Padel is a game with a racket and a ball, like tennis. In a match there are two teams, and in each team there are two players. So there are four players in a match. And around the court there are walls, and the ball bounces off them. The club welcomes players of all ages. And most players learn the basics in half an hour. And the club has competitions between the members. And Nura is happy about these competitions too.
