Bandeja Padel Stroke Explained (The Tray), how its played?

Bandeja is a Spanish Word: free translated it means ¨Tray¨. This is actually a pretty correct translation. It concerns a shot that is in between a smash and a forehand. During the preparation, you hold your Padel racket in a manner that you could place some glasses on top. Just like a waiter does.

The Bandeja is a shot to counter the lobs of your opponent when you’re at the net. In Padel mostly one team attacks and one team defend. The defending team will often hit a defensive lob to make the attacking team go to the back of the court. The answer to these lobs is often the Bandeja. The shot is done correctly when it has some slice, so the ball won’t bounce up a lot, it is also not played as fast as a smash and often placed in the back of the court of the defending team into the corners.

It´s a shot that does not exist in any other sport like Tennis for instance.
