Choosing Padel court side based on handedness and partner.

🏆 Your #1 Takeaway

How to choose the best side to play on in Padel?

Your ideal side depends on your handedness and your partner's handedness, aiming for an ideal combination (Lefty on the right, Righty on the left) to cover the center with forehands on overheads, and strategically placing the better player on the left in two righty pairings.

What Your Guru Thinks

This explains a really important fundamental concept in Padel, which is how to decide which side of the court you and your partner should play on. The coach breaks down the ideal combinations based on whether players are left-handed or right-handed. It also highlights why playing on both sides is valuable for understanding the game better. It's a great starting point for thinking strategically about your partnership.
