The Padel Podcast
As the fastest growing sport in the world, padel needed a platform to talk with all the key players in more depth and what made each individual one of them fall in love with the sport. As I am a true racketsport enthusiast, hopefully I will provide a lot of insight throughout, and this podcast is a bi-weekly must listen to a lot of people! I also talk about the Premier Padel, the best players in the world and I provide a lot of gear update!
