A tailored programme for players levelled 2.25 to 2.75
All of our Progression Academy courses consist of six consecutive weeks of coaching with the same coach and the same group of four players. You can either sign up as an individual, a pair, a trio or a full quartet.
If you sign up indvidually, you will be matched with other players who have the same availability as you. Any delay to your start date will be caused by the need for there to be four people available to start at the same time and day.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The six-week Progression Academy course is £85 for members and £100 for
non-members.
Your course will run for six consecutive weeks and you will be billed for the sessions, whether you can come or not.
Once you have booked in, all the sessions will appear in your Schedule in the EGP App and can be paid weekly.
HOW MUCH IS IT?
At EGP, we want you to be able to develop your game at a pace that suits you and to make friendships in the sport that will give you the same love for padel that we have.
EGPA is designed to give you the tools to take the level that you currently have and progress to the next band with your skills set solidly on strong foundations. We will help you to catch the bad habits, correct them and increase your understanding of the game in a fun and inclusive environment.
WHAT IS THE EGPA & PATHWAY?
COURSE DETAILS
MODULE 1: Patient Points
A rush of blood to the head worked for Coldplay but it’s less good for padel play. Build, build, build is the key and this will be an hour of learning how to be patient and steady in the build-up. It’s all about the negotiation phase…
MODULE 2: The Glass
The Glass is class and this is your glass class. Learn to love the clear stuff and you will never look back. This part of the course covers how to use it, how to read it and when to turn it to your advantage.
MODULE 3: The Cage
Sometimes the cage will just punish you every time but there are ways to give yourself the best possible chance off the cage. We’ll cover a range of tips, tricks, rules and rulos to turn the metal bit to your advantage more often than not as well as defend it successfully.
MODULE 4: Overhead Choices
Bandejas, Viboras, Smashes. So many choices and making the right one is crucial to success. We’ll look at how to make decisions around attacking and defending in zone two, why power is often not your friend and how to use overheads to finish points.
MODULE 5: Positioning As A Pair
It’s easy to forget that Padel is a team sport. Covering the right areas of the court as a pair and communicating will be biggest padel hack you can activate in this course. Don’t miss module five!
MODULE 6: Pace Matters
With all of the above under your belt, you will be starting to understand that playing padel at your pace and dictating the speed of points allows you to control your matches. Learning when to apply pace and how to slow things down and regroup is the aim here.
