The 7+1 Overheads in Padel

Learn the tactical and technical secrets behind the 7+1 overheads in padel; how to observe and analyse them, and how to teach them. In tennis there is one overhead – the smash; in padel, there are 8. They are also one of the most common shots in padel, with roughly a quarter of strokes being overheads. Find out why there’s such a variety, and why learning a combination of them is so important for player development. To finish, you’ll also take away a series of games and drills that you can use with players to develop the overhead strokes. This course was developed by a team of content creators that includes Steve Yeardley, Rafa Conde Ripoll, and Iciar Montes.
