As we know, the padel is a sport played by 4, pitting each pair against the other. But what about 1-on-1 play or even specially designed pitches for players who want to hit the ball individually?

A dose of physical and technical preparation

Have you ever tried to play individually against your opponent? in the diagonal ? If so, you have surely noticed that the exchanges can very quickly increase in intensity and often lead to long rallies! Constantly playing diagonals is not necessarily very fun but it can bring rewarding benefits on the general preparation of the player of padel.

A a physical training on the one hand, since it would almost be a question of playing badminton as the exchanges are long and that we find many sequences of play with volleys, lobs, returns in defense from the baseline. The diagonal play is interesting to prepare a physical crate because the player is always in motion. On the other hand, it will be difficult to play with the windows because it is quite difficult at times to defend all the time in a crossed way. The use of the lob is therefore the best weapon to lead a counter attack.

Work technical is not spared since the player will repeat a very large number of times sequences of attacks with vibora et bandeja which are the fundamental elements of padel. In the end, a lot of repetition, a bit like when you make the basket. This is why the very best players in the world also play two-player games.

Land like no other

It is also possible to play on grounds specially designed to play in 1vs1. They are different from the grounds of padel classic. They are the same length but are reduced in width: 6m instead of 10.

It's counterintuitive, but it's best not to go on the fly when playing on this type of terrain. The length and width rarely allow opportunities to be used to climb on the fly. The dimensions can also confuse players when first stepping into them.

The good thing is that you don't have to worry about constantly finding 4 players. Bickering is also out of the game since you can only count on yourself to achieve victory!

Le padel 1vs1 could almost be considered another sport! Mainly because of the changing dimensions of the land. It would look like a kind of “touch-tennis revisited”. In any case, the fact of training in 1vs1 with your partner remains very interesting to improve your physical qualities.
