What I Felt on Court
I packed both for a normal club night with one racket, balls, spare grip, water, towel, and shoes when space allowed.
- Babolat COURT S Padel Bag: The Court S gave me more confidence that the setup would not turn into a cramped pile.
- Babolat COURT Backpack LITE: The Backpack Lite was easier to carry and made sense for short sessions where I did not bring much.
- Deciding note: Once shoes or towel entered the routine, the Court S became easier to live with.
