1. Backhand Strength: Right side players typically have a more reliable and versatile backhand. They possess a solid defensive and offensive backhand, which allows them to counterattack, defend against difficult shots, and maintain control during rallies.
2. Net Dominance: Right side players excel in their net play skills. They have good anticipation, reflexes, and the ability to intercept balls at the net effectively. They put pressure on opponents, block shots, and finish points with well-placed volleys and smashes.
3. Shot Placement: Right side players exhibit excellent shot placement skills. They can accurately target different areas of the court, exploiting opponents' weaknesses and creating openings for winners. Their precise shot placement contributes to their offensive game and puts opponents on the defensive.
4. Defensive Contributions: Right side players play a crucial role in the team's defensive efforts. They defend against diagonal shots from opponents, cover their side of the court effectively, and provide support to their partner when needed.
5. Overhead Shots and Smashing: Right side players have strong overhead shots, including powerful smashes and controlled lobs. They use these shots to finish points at the net or put opponents under pressure with deep and well-placed lobs.
These distinctions in skills and responsibilities between left and right side players allow them to complement each other's strengths and create a well-rounded team dynamic on the padel court. However, it's important to note that individual players may possess a mix of skills and be versatile in playing on either side, adapting to the game's flow and specific strategies employed by the team.

For women, Cropped Leggings work for padel in addition to tennis and other racket sports. You can wear them all day (and night). Working from home one minute, hitting the court, gym or yoga studio the next.

Does the padel player in your life juggle work, travel and other active pursuits? The Epirus racket bag collections were created with this exact lifestyle in mind. The range covers a wide variety of use cases: the Borderless Backpack V2 has a modern, sleek shape which sets it apart from sportier options on the market and has a gender-neutral feel.
The Transition Tote V2 is an obvious choice for someone that is dedicated to both padel and yoga. The padded section of the tote is designed to stow your tablet, laptop, rackets individually or together. The front pocket allows easy access to your water bottle, balls or sunglasses. The inner valuables pocket is secured by a zipper and is the location for your keys, phone, headphones and jewelery.
Looking for more space than a tote or backpack? The Dynamic Duffel V2 has room to store several rackets and all your gear for a weekend while still being more compact than a traditional racket-shaped tennis bag. The bag comes with two shoe bags to ensure that your used gear and dirty shoes are text separate from the rest of the bag contents.
If you're not keen on investing in a bespoke racket bag, our neoprene padel cover is worth an investigation. Designed to protect both your racket and the items in your bag, the cover simply zips up over rackets. Then, the racket can be carried (and concealed!) in the bag of your choice.
