In this episode with Sandy and Tom, they discuss what makes a good coach and how different coaching can be depending on your skill level and needs.Good players are not always good coaches, whether in padel or any sport. While being a skilled player gives a coach valuable insight into the technical and tactical aspects of the game, the ability to teach and guide others requires a distinct skill set. '70% of coaching success comes from communication and emotional intelligence' (European Journal of Sport Science). As a coach try to avoid coaching every player the same way you were taught or the way you play now! Each player needs a slightly different approach and to be treated as an individual.You can find all our other podcast episodes at: podcasts.thepadelschool.com Instagram: @thepadelschool Facebook: www.facebook.com/thepadelschool LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-padel-schoolTikTok: @thepadelschoolWe offer a *7-DAY FREE TRIAL* on our online platform with a bunch of exclusive content! *SIGN UP NOW* and don't miss out on an opportunity to IMPROVE YOUR GAME!SIGN UP: thepadelschool.com

Manu is one of the best WPT coaches, currently coaching the top female pair (Ari Sanchez & Ale Salazar), and has a library of padel tutorial videos in Spanish on his YouTube Channel (@mejoratupadel).In this interview we talk about how Manu got involved in padel and then coaching on the WPT. We discuss how to use strengths, weaknesses and what separates the players at the top level. Manu also tells us how his channel started and the hard work that goes into that! We finish the episode with advice for competition players, as well as some suggestions for coaches to make sure they keep up to date.This is a longer episode, but there was so much useful information it would've been a disservice to you if I cut any of it out!To find out more about Manu:YouTube Channel - Mejora Tu PadelInstagram - @manumartin83
