DISCOVER TYPTI AT VELIGANDU

What if your next Maldives holiday introduced you to a sport you've never played before?

It’s a new addition to island life.

Nestled amidst the lush tropical greenery of Veligandu Maldives Resort Island, a new island experience is waiting to be discovered. Meet TYPTI, one of the world’s newest racquet sports, now available on our Pickleball Court.

Blending the best elements of tennis, pickleball, and badminton, TYPTI is a fast-paced, easy-to-learn game designed for players of all ages and skill levels. Played with a lightweight carbon fibre racquet and a high-bouncing foam ball, the game encourages longer rallies, dynamic movement, and plenty of laughter, making it the perfect activity for couples, friends, and families seeking something beyond the ordinary.

“Fast, fun, forgiving, and open to all skill levels, TYPTI transforms every match into an exciting island experience.”

What Makes Typti a Different Riquet Sport?

TYPTI isn’t just another racquet sport. Its innovative rules create a game that is engaging, inclusive, and full of surprises. Live net rebounds add an unexpected twist to every rally, and there are no kitchen restrictions. Yes, players can even use any part of their body or the edge of the racquet to return the ball. Imagine the possibilities! The result? Longer, more unpredictable rallies, exciting gameplay, plenty of laughter, and unforgettable moments on the court.

Today, it is beginning to capture the attention of racquet sport enthusiasts around the world.
