Many players ask us to participate in camps, but then they tell us that they come alone. And that is not possible, the padel is first and foremost a team sport!

In the Sports To B courses, we cover all facets of the game: technique, tactics, psychology, coached matches, reading the game of your opponents... We explain it all to you!

Of course, the basis is the technique!

Serve, forehand, backhand, volley, lob, smash, bandeja, vibora… As in all sports, it is extremely important to master all the shots you will use during a match. Additionally, many players come from another racquet sport, such as tennis or squash, and are prone to bad moves. For example, the topspin forehand is almost never used. Typically, during the first hour of each day, your coach will teach you how to properly master the techniques! First control… then power!

But where the camp gets really interesting is when you get into all the tactics and matches. Have you ever been overwhelmed and felt stuck when the going gets tough? It's probably because you haven't taken a few moments to think about tactics. What are your strong points ? Do you prefer to play on the forehand or backhand side? Have you taken the time to analyze your opponents' play? Should we speed up the game or slow it down?

As mentioned earlier, the padel is primarily a team sport, unlike most other racquet sports. It is therefore essential to get to know your partner, to find synergies and to develop automatisms to win matches. Knowing how to play as a team is not only limited to being technically competent… It also means encouraging your partner in difficult times, carefully reading the game of your opponents and developing a strategy to destabilize them, adopting body language that shows that you are not never give up, know how to manage time and take advantage of breaks, etc.

Often taken by the intensity and stakes of the match, we forget to use our head and act mainly by instinct and feeling...

And that's what our coaches will work with you on, showing you classic game sequences, when to go on the attack or stay defensive, when to change sides and vary the game, or when one must consistently target a specific opponent, letting the other cool off, and so on. As in all sports, tactics and strategy play a fundamental role, which is why it is essential to take part in the course with several people… Because if you come alone, you will only be working on technique. It would be a bit like following a football course alone, without teammates… It would make no sense!

Finally, let's not forget why we love this sport so much: its social aspect! Isn't it fun to play with friends or family? Finish a game or practice and then go for a drink or something to eat together? This is also the padel, and that's what gives it all its charm!
