Resumen

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between ball impact point, type of stroke,and shot direction in high-performance padel. A total of 8363 strokes from nine matches of threenational tournaments involving a total of 24 male players were subjected to systematic observation.The variables analyzed were type of stroke, shot direction, and ball impact. A descriptive analysiswas conducted for each study variable, with a comparison of the variables performed using Pearson’sChi-Square test, column proportions determined using a Z test according to Bonferroni (p < 0.05),an association established by corrected standardized residuals, and an effect size calculated usingCrammer’s V. The results showed that the most-used stroke types were volleys, serves, groundstrokes,and backwall shots (67.6%). The cross-court direction stood out over down-the-line and inside-outdirections. Finally, almost two-thirds of the impact point locations were forward. In addition, thetype of stroke determined shot direction and ball impact location. Moreover, the ball’s impactlocation significantly determined shot direction. In conclusion, these results suggest that the ballimpact location and the type of stroke provide information from which padel shot direction canbe anticipated. Such knowledge may constitute a very important factor affecting performance andsuccess among padel players
