In padel tennis, Sandy offers lobber-handling techniques. In lobbing, the ball is struck high over the goal, making it difficult for the player on the receiving end to reach it. Sandy suggests spending more time on serves to make them more precise and difficult to lob in order to resist this strategy. Determining whether to come closer to the net or try a smash after the opponent has served might be aided by evaluating their position.
Increasing the intensity of your volleys and bandeja shots can impose pressure on opponents and make it harder for them to lobbing. Being more forceful with volleys and bandeja strokes can help break the pattern if a player is having trouble handling lobbed balls at the net. Using visual cues from opponents to predict their shoots can also help in getting ready for the following ball. Sandy recommends taking their overheads course for more thorough teaching on overheads.
