10:16 THANK U!
Defense in padel is about survival and smart decision-making, and understanding the three types of defensive balls will help you become a better player:
🔴 Red Balls – When you're under pressure and have no time, just keep the ball in play
🟡 Yellow Balls – When you have more control, start building the point and create opportunities
🟢 Green Balls – When you get an easy ball, use the lob to take the net and switch to attack
