WTF is Paleta Balin aka Paleta Goma

I was invited to give my first paleta sport a go in Montevideo, Uruguay, and I was not disappointed! Paleta Balin, also called Paleta Goma or Pelota Paleta is a fun sport played on a trinquete where you hit a bouncy rubber ball up and down with a wooden or fibreglass palette/paleta. You can play singles or doubles. The sport is in the FIPV World Championships and at a high level it's extremely attritional. I'm sure I'll do more videos over time about paleta and pala sports - any suggestions welcome! As a first outing I really enjoyed it and it has whetted my appetite to do some more!! #paleta #uruguay #sports #newsports
