Mastering sidewall returns: reading the ball and technique tips.

PadelJo
🏆 #1 Takeaway - How can I improve my return of serve when the ball hits the sidewall?
Focus on reading the server's position to anticipate the ball trajectory, make quick decisions on how to play the return (using one or two walls), and utilize a short backswing with a continental grip for better control and timing.

What Your Guru Thinks

This is a very helpful lesson if you struggle returning serves that hit the sidewall. Sven explains that returning sidewall serves is easier than you think if you understand the key principles. He breaks down the return into reading the ball, making quick decisions, and using proper technique. Understanding these elements will definitely improve your confidence when facing serves that go towards the side glass.

Description

This is easier then you think!
To make it as easy as possible we will divide this material into 3 chapters. It is very important that you start with the first step, I feel like many people start with the technique. But these 2 steps before the technique are way more important!
