  • In this episode, we’ll take you through the recent European Championship tournament where we discuss if the men’s GB team and their 7th place is an accurate representation of the level of British Padel.

    We’ll also have chat about how far away Padel is from becoming an official sport at the Olympic Games and what we believe has to be done in order to make that a reality as soon as possible.

    But maybe most importantly - we’ll answer the question of; how exhausting is it to actually support a team?!

  • 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

  • Our members have found it hugely beneficial to train with a ball machine. Here is how they use it:

    1. Setup the ball machine to feed the shot they want to work on
    2. Setup their camera/phone to film the shots
    3. Upload the video to our member community
    4. Receive feedback from Sandy, Tom and the TPS Coaches
    5. Go back to the court to practice the advice

    In this episode we discuss the value of training volume and why some parts of technique need to be trained with repetition.
    We discuss what we like to use the ball machine for and why!
