Knowing WHEN to start the run forward is often the reason you reach the ball... or do NOT!
We have always said the reason the WPT padel players seem like lightning is that their anticipation is amazing (they actually move rapidly too)!
And this is against players where anything is possible!
The key is being aware of what is happening around you - the game, the opponent, your shot - these are all factors in whether you need to run forward!
There are IMPORTANT STAGES to reading your opponent's movements and anticipating - check out these sections of the video:

Great video and tips. I've always try to apply the split strategy vs the smash because it also protects against a fake smash. However, like you mention on tip #2, it leaves the player that is forward vulnerable to X3 that are not very clear if they are going out or not. At lower levels is not much of an issue, but as the level becomes higher, communication between defenders is much mofe important. Keep it up!

I have an question, and my question is how to arrange padel tennis competition

@ThePadelSchool Жыл бұрын

usually this would be done through a club. are you part of one?

@Tech_Publica Жыл бұрын

this applies only to quite high amateur level because 1) at low/average level very few people are able to kick it por tres or even just back to the net on a consistent basis 2) at low/average level the few players that do are usually hitting with lots of power and little technique, meaning that moving forwards on their smash is a quite suicidal move because the chance that they hit directly at your is quite significant...

@ThePadelSchool Жыл бұрын

It’s the same principles at lower levels. You see the player about to smash, anticipate the smash based of the lob and game situation. Only difference is that it is probably not as difficult to retrieve.

@Tech_Publica Жыл бұрын

@@ThePadelSchool my point is that advising amateur players to advance aggressively on a smash must be done with great care lest it ends up in a lot of folks who get seriously hurt by receiving the smash on their faces.. And paradoxically enough it is much easier to "anticipate" the kind of smash that a very technical player does rather then the one made the many morons amateurs who are out there, which will just hit the ball as hard as they can and then the ball can literally fly anywhere..

@ThePadelSchool Жыл бұрын

@@Tech_Publica I would disagree. I believe it is easier to anticipate when a beginner/intermediate player is going to hit a hard smash (often you can tell well in advance). The pros can disguise and hit much more variety. But yes, players do need to be careful when running forward if opponent doesn’t have control. The principles still apply though.

Being an intermediate level player myself, imo 😉Having played against amateurs and competition level players I think it's harder to anticipate competition level type of players smashes. Because their setup is exactly the same either going for a smash or a fake while intermediate player tend to setup different when they smash or fake hence easier to tell when they will go for it. Also I would say when you anticipate a smash you have a close eye on the ball which makes you more aware and prepared which makes it at least not more dangerous since you are ready. But I agree on intermediate level a smash can end up anywhere. 😁

@Tech_Publica Жыл бұрын

@@sebulbathx it is a different level of "anticipation"... you might not know where a player with good technique is going to smash, but at least he knows...so he will alternate among a series of reasonable possibilities.. when a low level player hits hard he himself does not know where the ball is gonna end.. and that is exactly why there is a sizable chance that it ends in your face if you move forward. I have seen cases where the ball actually flies towards you at hits the glass at face or chest level without having bounced on the floor...
