We would like to invite you to the Bandeja Padel Tournament in Zoetermeer at Dekker Zoetermeer on Saturday, November 9th! 🎾
Here are all the details you need to participate:
🗓️ Date: Saturday, November 9th
⏰ Time: 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM
📍 Location: Scheglaan 12, 2718 KZ Zoetermeer
📈 Levels: This time, we have two categories: Beginner (KNLTB 8/9) and Intermediate (KNLTB 6/7). Only sign up for this level if you actually hold this ranking or are sure that you fit within this level, as we want to keep the levels as accurate as possible.
This tournament will NOT count towards the KNLTB ranking, so you do NOT need a ranking, and you do NOT need to be a member of the KNLTB. Detailed explanations of the levels are provided below.
Format: You will play all your matches at the level you registered for. Each match lasts 30 minutes. Everyone plays at least a group stage of 3 x 30 minutes. After the group stage of 1.5 hours, semi-finals of 30 minutes will be played, followed by a 30-minute final for each category.
💰 Cost: 50 euros per team, so 25 euros per person.
👫 You will always play all matches with the person you sign up with.
The winners of both categories will receive great prizes from @indianmahadradjapadel.
Bandeja Padel – Beginner Level
This level is close to KNLTB ranking 8/9 and Playtomic ranking: 1 – 2.0 +/-.
You’ve been playing for a few months, about 1 to 2 times per week, or you’ve been playing irregularly for 1/2 years or have some experience with racket sports. You can hit forehands, backhands, volleys, and a serve over the net.
After your serve, you tend to stay in the back of the court. Points are often made from the back of the court as well. While serving, you and your partner switch sides just like in tennis.
Bandeja Padel – Intermediate Level
This level is close to KNLTB ranking 6/7 and Playtomic ranking: 2.5 – 4.
You have quite a bit of experience and play at least once a week. You’re practicing shots like bandeja, vibora, bajada, and chiquita, and/or are beginning to gain control over them. You have control over basic shots such as forehands, backhands, volleys, and serves.
You’re starting to understand the tactics of the game better. After your serve, you move straight to the net and try to maintain the net position. During serving, the net player does not switch sides. When you’re not serving, you try to gain net position by playing a lob or chiquita. You also observe where your opponents are positioned to decide where to hit the ball.
