How to use the walls in padel: rules and tips

Using the walls is one of the keys to padel. Unlike tennis, here you can use the rebounds to defend or attack with precision.

Basic rules:

• The ball can hit the wall after bouncing on the ground.

• You can’t hit your own wall before the bounce.

• If the ball crosses the net and bounces off your opponent’s wall, it’s still in play.

• If it hits the mesh without bouncing, the point is over.

Practical tips:

• Anticipate the rebound: the harder the shot, the faster it will come off the glass.

• Use the wall to defend against difficult balls.

• Practice angles with the side wall to surprise your opponent.

Mastering the walls helps you control the game’s rhythm and gain time in defense.
