A common theme last week in our clinics in South Africa was working with players to slow the speed of the ball down.
This is extremely difficult to do when the other players on the court hit so fast, but in this solo episode Sandy explains the best way to do that!
Another example of the glass being your friend in order to hit chiquitas and lobs! We highly recommend players get comfortable with the glass as early as possible and learn to control the speed of their padel to continue to improve.

Players start padel as a hobby for a bit of fun with their friends, but before they know it there is somebody they want to beat!
In this episode Sandy and Tom discuss why it is so important to get training as early as you can!
The majority of players that come to our clinics for their first instruction have been playing for a year or more without lessons! By that stage, as the coach, our main job is to start breaking down the bad habits!
It is so much easier to teach a new player good habits than to break the habits of a longer term "social player".

In this episode with Sandy & Tom, they discuss how they watch the Premier matches to get the most out of it as a player (as well as a spectator)!
We highly recommend players watch the professionals play and it is so easy now (and free) with Redbull TV app.
If you watch the pros carefully you can see the patterns of play they use and how well they move off the ball. It looks like they are lightning around the court, but much of that is anticipation and reading what it happening in the point. You can only start to get better at anticipation by watching how it should be done!

In this episode with Sandy and Tom, they discuss what makes a good coach and how different coaching can be depending on your skill level and needs.
Good players are not always good coaches, whether in padel or any sport. While being a skilled player gives a coach valuable insight into the technical and tactical aspects of the game, the ability to teach and guide others requires a distinct skill set.
'70% of coaching success comes from communication and emotional intelligence' (European Journal of Sport Science).
As a coach try to avoid coaching every player the same way you were taught or the way you play now! Each player needs a slightly different approach and to be treated as an individual.

In this episode we sit down with Nick Williams, Head of Coach Education for The Padel School, to discuss the transition from coaching tennis to padel.
The next generation of padel coaches will be made up of a large proportion of ex-tennis coaches. The sports are similar (while different) and so it makes sense many will come from tennis. But we discussed that as soon as coaches acknowledge there is a major difference between tennis and padel, they immediately get a better understanding of the game!
When it comes to the technique from tennis to padel, there can be some big changes and many that players do not consider from the beginning!
In this playlist we explain the major differences in terms of playing - Tennis to Padel Playlist

When a tennis player takes to the court there are often a few areas they are pretty good at, but there are also areas that often are more difficult...
In this episode, we are joined by Tom Farquharson who has recently gone through the conversion from tennis to padel. Tom and I discuss the advantages and disadvantages for tennis players, the transitioning process, as well as the growing/transfer pains.
The one thing that tennis players (who have been taught) do, that non-racket sports players do not do is… the Split Step. When it comes to shot preparation and movement, this is so crucial. So if you come from a different sport, try to learn the split step from the moment you start padel!

This episode with one of our students is an interesting discussion about match preparation, communication and the difference between playing with a new partner vs playing with someone you know very well.
There are different levels to understand your partner on - it is not just understanding how they play shots, it is also their decision making, their personality, what motivates them and even their organization.
Thank you to Mats for allowing us to record one of our coaching sessions and I hope more players would find this useful!

Always love speaking to Andreas to find out padel news from Sweden and how the players are doing on the WPT.
The players and Andreas put in some great training time and effort during the off-season and now all that work is starting to bear fruit. The players have had a very solid start to the season and are competing well against players that have been training in padel for over a decade.
In this episode we discuss what it takes for the Swedish pairs to come through at this level and the idea of "padel concept" or "padel IQ" - probably the most valuable attribute at the highest level!

In this solo episode I cover one of the most important tactics in the game, which is how to HOLD the net. Once you have managed to get to net, the key to winning the point is keeping this advantage as long as possible.
Players are often either: too aggressive as soon as they get to net, attacking any ball they can, OR are too tentative and do not take advantage of their court position.
These related videos show you some of the concepts we talked about:
Communication
When to Smash or Not
Moving As A Pair
