Healthy competitiveness shows a player's desire to padel to want to beat his opponent in a match. In addition, athletic level is also measured by the number of games a player wins or loses over a year. Therefore, we need to work to improve our match won ratio.

What can we do to win more matches of padel ?

  1. Support for your partner Offer him a message of encouragement when he goes through a difficult time. And we must congratulate him when he makes a good move. Communication during the match also helps to form a good team. In the same way, let yourself be accompanied by your partner. Therefore, tell him clearly what can help you.
  2. Always have your usual tactic, but also think of a plan B, in case the first option would not work. Successful players are those who are always looking for a way to reach their ultimate goal.
  1. Sometimes, after gaining an important point, people can relax so much that they lose their focus for the next point. Avoid that happening to you by putting your concentration on the game, always. The same should be done in case you have lost a point, to avoid losing too much away too easily.
  1. Try to maintain constant mobility along the pitch during a game of padel. This movement helps you to give dynamism to the game and to respond to the attacks of the opponents. Stay active, and ready to respond as quickly as possible.
  1. If you have won a set, try to continue with the same pitch that you have maintained throughout this set. The most likely thing is that you keep getting good results by doing so. On the contrary, if you have lost the set, look for a way to disrupt your opponent by changing strategy or state of mind for example.
  1. What is your opponent's level? In case he has a more developed technique, it is very important that you break the rhythm of the game with slower strokes. On the contrary, if your opponent's level of play is lower, technique can become your best ally to win, by imposing your pace for example.
  1. The mind plays a very important role in the success of your matches. So create a sentence that is a real engine for you psychologically when you are in a bad time. You can repeat this phrase frequently during the match.
