This episode we do something different.

I play devil's advocate and put forward a proposition. And I ask some experts from the industry to agree or argue.

This first debate asks Soul Padel's Mark Hewlett, InstantPadel's Christoffer Granfelt and Taktika Padel's Ryan Redondo to question whether the sport of padel is being positioned and promoted as a pasttime for the affluent and elite. Is the reputation of the sport and its ecosystem veering to hard towards luxury, celebrity and premium? And if so, what are the benefits and dangers of that perception, or indeed reality?

The conversation demands a bit more opinion, and taps into concerns. 

However you look at this issue, there are some interesting points and counterpoints presented by our industry heavyweights.
