Volley training with a Romanian professional padel player has given novices a great chance to hone one of the game’s most important shots. The session highlighted the importance of volleys, which can account for nearly 70% of winning strokes in a match.
The volley’s significance
The volley in padel is a weapon that controls the tempo of play in addition to being a defensive tactic. Coaches stress that controlling rallies and gaining confidence at the net depend on being proficient with this stroke. Players can improve their chances of controlling exchanges and effectively closing points by regularly practicing volleys.
Giulia’s training session
The training session was overseen by Giulia, who makes up half of Romania’s top-ranked pair. Her knowledge and accuracy gave attendees a clear example to follow. By sharing the court with her, novices were able to closely study professional technique, including racket setup and footwork positioning.
Useful advice for novices
Teamwork, timing, and repetition were the main topics of the training. Beginners were advised to anticipate opponents’ shots, hold their racket high, and stay balanced when entering volleys. Giulia gave players examples of drills that mimic game conditions and teach them how to switch from defense to offense.
Motivated by the highest
Giulia’s presence gave the group more drive and demonstrated how commitment and self-control can improve output. Her participation in Romania’s top pair highlights the degree of dedication needed to be successful in padel. As she explained during the session, “Volley is the shot that can change the rhythm of the game and give you control,” highlighting its central role in competitive play.
Building confidence through practice
For beginners, the training was more than technical—it was about building confidence. By practicing alongside a professional, players gained insight into how small adjustments can make a big difference. The session reinforced that padel is a sport of precision, teamwork, and mental strength, with the volley at its core.
